The Hot Wheels Kool Kombi Green Lantern version, product number GRL43, is a 1:64 scale collectible die-cast car from the Hot Wheels Premium line, released in 2021 as part of the Pop Culture: DC Comics series as number 2/5. This die-cast model is aimed at collectors of classic Volkswagens, fans of DC comics, and collectors of Pop Culture releases. The Kool Kombi Green Lantern GRL43 collector's model comes on a premium card with a protective blister. The Kool Kombi casting was designed for Mattel by Tony Martino, and it debuted in 2013 in the HW Showroom: HW Hot Trucks series. The casting depicts a first-generation Volkswagen Type 2 with a split windshield, modified into a shortened "Shorty" delivery version with an open tailgate and surfboards protruding from the back. The body is complemented by a large stinger-style exhaust pipe and two small wheelie bars, mounted on the shortened buses for stability. The Green Lantern version features a Midnight Blue metallic body with fine glitter, accented with graphics referencing the Green Lantern. The base of the car is metal and unpainted, the windows have a smoke tint, and the interior is black. The model rolls on grey RRS wheels with rubber Real Riders tires. Production takes place in Thailand. The model was created as part of a collaboration between Hot Wheels and DC Comics. Green Lantern, known in Polish editions as Zielona Latarnia, is a DC Comics superhero who debuted in 1940; several characters have used this alias, the most famous of which are Alan Scott and Hal Jordan. The hero is a member of the classic Justice League lineup. The model's livery is kept in the green and dark blue color scheme associated with this character, and the entire release is available exclusively in the limited premium Pop Culture line. The original is the Volkswagen Type 2, a family of commercial vehicles produced by Volkswagen since 1949. The first generation, designated T1 and designed by Ben Pon, was distinguished by a split windshield and a rear-mounted engine driving the rear axle. T1 production ended in 1967, and the bus became one of the symbols of the 1960s counterculture. Releases from the Pop Culture series are distinguished by a metal base, rubber tires, and limited availability outside of mainline sets. The dark, subdued color scheme distinguishes the GRL43 from other Kool Kombi casting releases and makes it a highly sought-after item for DC collections.
