WLf nascar4al 12-10-2006, 10:50 PM looks like 3205 macnut 12-11-2006, 12:43 AM It looks like 3205 to me also. I found a 70 Camaro last week that had 3200 on it. :thumbsup: rlyoung1 12-11-2006, 02:34 AM Looks like 3205 to me too. :rolleyes: 69camaro 12-11-2006, 04:08 AM I think it's 3502. Write 3502 and look at the reflection in a mirror. It looks just like the number on the car. If this is true. What is the real run number? :confused: That is an excellent picture. greeneyewolf23 12-11-2006, 08:51 AM Ayup it looks like 3205, i just read it to fast first time.. my bad! :freak: i just thought the green machines were #'d 1-50? :confused: and the white box is new as well. So i'm assuming this from the "oh crap we need to put more out run" WLf cool 12-11-2006, 10:30 AM Well it is 3502, Here another Pic.69camaro your Right:thumbsup: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v222/69spyder/MVC-145S.jpg Wyatt 12-11-2006, 11:14 AM It's 3502. rlyoung1 12-11-2006, 11:37 AM What is the real run number? :confused: Greenlight cars come packed 12 to a case. 2500 or 3500 cannot be divided evenly by 12 so they probably run over to make the cases even. Runs are probably 3504 and 2508. :) GeraldE61 12-11-2006, 11:38 AM I say it's 3205 maybe, who knows. Probably 3502, send an e-mail to GL and ask them. Why don't you open it and settle this http://home.centurytel.net/geralde61/otherway.jpg Wyatt 12-11-2006, 12:52 PM Here is the image, mirrored and turned right side up to counter the reflection of the bottom of the car on the insert in the package. Looks like 3502 to me. http://myweb.cableone.net/wrdavis/3502.jpg 69camaro 12-11-2006, 01:05 PM Greeneyewolf23, With the increase in production to 3500 there are now 70 Green Machines per casting. They were not serialized seperately from the regulars and can be serialized anywhere from #1 to #3500. I've seen some post with some of the lower numbers with the white box. And it looks like the 1000 they added have the white boxes. All this info is from what I've been seeing. greeneyewolf23 12-11-2006, 06:58 PM Greeneyewolf23, With the increase in production to 3500 there are now 70 Green Machines per casting.

Thanx for the info camaro! :thumbsup: WLf chevyj1957 12-11-2006, 10:17 PM The green machine impala i have is # to 3503. Thought you guys would like to know. Mark Hosaflook 12-12-2006, 10:26 AM Here's my thoughts on this. Since GL and RC2 share the same factory I can assume this is a possibility GL shares with JL cars. When I have complete runs sent to me for Fest and each half of the cars is numbered 1 to 600 and we pair them up often times we find that the pad printing system skips numbers every so often. Perhaps they are smudged, flawed or the machine hiccups. Sometimes there is even duplicate numbers so I know there are problems from time to time with the pad numbering machine itself because I have seen it first hand. The entire run has to be numberd, if the machine messed up for any of the above reasons the rest still require numbers so there is and often was numbers that went higher than the run anywhere from 5 to 10 numbers higher. It was obvious why after pairing them all up so I knew there was no hanky panky and rather than let those higher numberts out, I just ate them, no big deal. In this case GL still wants as many as possible to enjoy the run so they realease it. There is no big conspiracy theory here really, simply what I assume is the machine catching up to the true number of cars and with flaws factured in the numbers will often go a little over the production. It happens.:) cozmictoys 12-13-2006, 01:46 AM Just send me the damn car and I'll figure it out for you! :thumbsup: Cozmictoys Karl 12-13-2006, 10:55 AM Its definately 3502. I would assume a few in the production run were recalled under some diecast lemon law for flaws but you can't just go back and reset the serial counter each time one drives off the conveyor belt prematurely. Think of it as the super rare 'error car' that should never have been... Or add me to the line wishing to get the car sent to them to spare you more grief... :) cool 12-13-2006, 12:19 PM OK Dale, NP........:p I think I got it!!!! Just send me the damn car and I'll figure it out for you! :thumbsup: Cozmictoys DiecastLive.Com 12-14-2006, 06:28 PM Its definately 3502.
