Diecast Spotlight: GreenLight Green Machines 8

You may or may not be aware of the relatively new diecast manufacturer, GreenLight Collectibles.  They are quickly making their presence known in the diecast collecting world with their premium diecast lines.  GreenLight also produces Green Machines, a rare chase car similar to a Super Treasure Hunt or Johnny Lightning White Lighting.  Green Machines make up 2% of the production run for any particular model, making them 50 times harder to find than the regular version of that model.  You can spot a Green Machine by looking for one of these features to differentiate between a Green Machine or regular production run:

1) GreenLight Green body (brilliant emerald green metallic paint)
2) Green chassis
3) Green rims
4) Green interior
5) Green tires

Here is a GreenLight Green Machine 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T that I found while shopping at Toys R Us.

Notice the green rims and metallic green strip on the collector’s card.

GreenLight has not yet made their way into Wal-Mart, but you can find them at Toys R Us, Target, and Meijer stores.  You can also find a large selection of GreenLight collectables, including .
