At the last Parsippany show, I picked up a sealed Dewalt #17 which was part of twinpack 9868 - the card had been cut in half. The Dewalt car was in the right hand window side of the card.

When I got home and checked my 9868 twinpacks, I noticed that my twinpacks have the Dewalt car in the left hand window of the card. I did not notice any difference in the two Dewalt cars, although when Lifelike makes a change like this, usually it is from a subsequent run and something has changed.

Does anyone have the twinpacks packed both ways? Is there any difference in the two cars (Valvoline and Dewalt) between the twinpacks? Are the issue years (from the back of the card) different?

Thanks...Joe

Maybe you got a rare pack Joe, Both my #9868's has the Dewalt in the right window, it's the Ford Taurus, black windows. I do have a Dewalt Taurus with silver windows, loose. The Fusion Dewalt came reversed with the Office Depot car, left side and right side... They got you, they know it, they gonna drain you dry...RM

Joe,
I have the twinpack both ways. The cars are the same, just reversed in the package. Some other twinpacks are the same way. Haven't checked the back of the card yet.

Thanks guys!

I've noticed there are a couple different Dewalt decos prior to the COT. I don't have the cars here with me now, but I think there are 6 different versions; one packaged single, two from sets and three from twinpacks.

I'll have to verify this.

Thanks...Joe

Tom,
Oh yeah? I bet you'll be the first guy in line asking me if I have any extras for some of these variations. LOL!!!!
