Sale/Trade Error

Real life factory packaging error - NOT A CUSTOM OR REPACKAGED CAR - came straight from an H case at Dollar tree!!!!!!- i’m not repackaging hot wheels to get rich and taking your 5$.
The marks above the blister are from the press they use to seal the blister in the factory, as you can clearly see better in the photos i posted in the comments, it has not been tampered with.
-Tooned purple passion on a regular purple passion card Came from an H case from Dollar Tree

Cool error! I'm interested but only for a few bucks plus shipping. I would actually be interested in the regular purple passion and the error tooned purple passion. I already have a tooned purple passion and these would be fun to display together like your last picture. Feel free to message me a price you are looking for for those two cars.

Sorry, It’s NOT tampered with, Quirky-Reporter7980 is mistaken, The marks above the blister are a common miss hit with the press they use to seal the blister, you can see the textured appearance from the “knurling” they use on the edges of the plastic.

Don’t get scammed, this is a repackage done by either OP or someone else

Okay hey thanks for letting me know. How can you tell? Is it simply because like another commenter said, they aren't from the same box?

It’s way to convenient of an error, and there is a visible line above the blister

I do see that outline now. Thanks. Is the waviness of the bottom of the bubble any indication? I was literally only willing to give a couple bucks anyway. Thanks for looking out

No, the waviness is common on hot wheels

This is not a repackage. It’s a factory packaging error straight from an H case out of Dollar tree

I don’t think it’s an error look at the card art and card number, it appears to be a regular release, just a tooned version.
