Pounce on This: Collector Edition Jaguar Lightweight E-Type from The Kroger Family of Stores

By Mattel Creations Staff

Despite numerous successes, Jaguar moved to their next generation E-Type in the early ’60s, producing more of a road car than a racer. Looking for a way to stay active in competition, they gave birth to a lighter version for racing. We honor that pursuit of speed with the Hot Wheels Collector Edition Jaguar Lightweight E-Type. Catch the big cat when you buy $20 worth of Hot Wheels cars at the Kroger Family of Stores locations and/or Kroger.com from April 16, 2023 to June 3, 2023.

Even though construction relied heavily on aluminum vs. steel, the Lightweight E-Type was light on production numbers. Jaguar planned to build 18, but only produced 12. Years later, they began a project in 2014 to complete the “final six” of the rare car.

Our casting first appeared in 2019, and this marks only its 4th appearance. Not as rare as the real car, but it can certainly add some heft to your collection.

Specs:

  • Body Color: MMSB Spectraflame pale pink
  • Deco: Purple stripe on hood, roof, rear, and sides; black “2” in white circle on hood and sides; Hot Wheels logo in black and white on sides; “HW 68” on hood; authentic manufacturer logos
  • Body type: ZAMAC
  • Wheels: Real Riders stock car wheels with red stripe tampo
  • Base: ZAMAC-plated
  • Window Color: Clear
  • Interior Color: Black

This collectible edition will ship on an illustrated blister card in a Kar Keepers clamshell case.

Could contain: Car, Transportation, Vehicle, Machine, Spoke, Alloy Wheel, Wheel, Coupe, Sports Car, Purple

Be on the prowl for four exclusive color variations from specially packed Kroger cases to show up in stores (find a store near you here). You’ll add them to your collection, and you can use their purchase toward the $20 you need for this Jaguar promotion.

I don't have Krogers in my area. I had a guy on "the island" who helped me out with receipts, but "the island" seems to have disappeared. Anyone know Harold Robey? Anyone willing to help me out with receipts? I have a ton of cards for mail ins. 

I also really, really NEED that Firebird!!

In case anyone from Mattel monitors this:  This is jaw-dropping.  It's the most amateurish launch of anything I've ever heard of, let alone from a global corporation like this. Why would you even go live with this announcement today? The "Kroger.com" link on this page doesn't work. "download them here" link doesn't work. The link to the order form doesn't work.  The QR code on the yellow tear-off form I got from the in-store display today is a link to the 2021 Nissan Laurel 2000 car, which is broken and goes nowhere.  At least fix this page so we can complete your instructions.

I already bought my cars for 3 of them, man I really hope it does not changes dates at this point since they are opened and ready to go once I can pay.

Where is the link to the form? and which assortment codes are valid? Do they allow for online receipts like last year? or only printed ones?

The article lists the valid assortment codes and specifically notes that online receipts are acceptable.

I don’t open my cars how would I send the cardboard portion 

Talk someone who does open their cars into parting with some spares, I suppose.
