Today I Opened A Hot Wheels Funny Side Up.
Not a fan of plastic bodied diecast but on a funny car it's a natural. After all, real funny cars have fiberglass bodies.

This flopper's plastic body is easily removable adding another realistic touch. Place the diecast chassis with plastic engine and roll-cage nearby and you're on a roll.
Another cool aspect is that some of the body is clear plastic: rear window and spoiler, side vents, front grille and windshield. Yet it appears to be monolithic. How'd they do that?!!! Closer inspection reveals what appears to be a two-part process: red plastic injected first then clear. Nice.
I like the name, too: a nice play on my sunny side up breakfast.
