Unlike a lot of Thailand variants where it’s mostly the eyelid line, the Thailand and China Heyday Smokey are like 2 model years … Lots of little details different (Thai on the left) including the eyeline.

This looks like a dynamic Lamborghini going through the paces under the lights at a racetrack on a rainy night  or … Automotive Photographer on Lockdown Creates Realistic Photo Shoot Using Toy Car, Treadmill … You can check out the photos HERE.  

Thanks “Mark T.” for the heads up and great photos. The World Grand Prix BOX SET with two returning diecasts with the eyelid line: CARS 2 Jeff Gorvette  & Francesco Fan Alberto. Walmart Exclusives.
