    Just received this new and sealed Hot Wheels 1995 Blue Honda Integra Type R and it’s just as described. I love the quality of the item itself and the packaging was secure and clean. It’s sold out on the Hot Wheels website and this seller had it for a very reasonable price. The shipping was fast and the boxes and sealed bag were very reassuring. A+
