“A nice polybag, in that is complements bigger sets adding one more Car. Parts-wise, it is a good small set, with the mentioned window, a cool large flame piece and a good selection of assorted red and light bley, with a few yellow and blue. No stickers, but two well printed... More pieces, the eyes and the front grille.”

“Pretty sure Grem is short for Gremlin, a car by AMC. Grem is outfitted with a blowtorch and a welder’s mask. The welder’s mask is actually pretty effective. It’s attached to the post which is plugged into the side of the car here. And then it swings down to cover the eyes.... More The only thing that bugs me though is that it just needs another 1×2 plate to center it over the eyes properly.”
