CONCEPTS Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 It's been a long long time since I've posted on this forum, probably 15 years. My son was born almost 16 years ago, and I gave him this car, not long after being born. He used it in the tub and on the tracks. I was into collecting mainlines and special editions back then (late 90s to early 2000's), and I have many variations of that time. During the acceleracers and I35 series, I tried to collect them all, but as you know releases of these were not scheduled well. I did end up with most of them and their variations. This is one of 4 of the nitrium variations I have. This one is the earliest on the shelves, co-mold 5s with the metallic silver crackle paint, but the rarest of all my acceleracers is when the silver crackle paint and co-mold 5's transitioned to the grey paint, which they all would have later. Another rare one is the silver crackle paint with the 6 spokes. So, if you ever followed acceleracers, there are some pretty rare variations, especially the nitrium. I really enjoyed collecting these at the time. I opened a lot of cars because I was collecting the cards as well. I hope you find the pics useful Quote

Yes Sir, I have those too. I have about 60 in package and about 40 fresh unplayed with releases. Check out the rd06 sticker and the error rd10 card with cm5 rd06 Quote
