You'll NEVER find it Jeff, it doesn't exist. The only mystery xB is the dark blue one.
Btw Jeff, you shouldn't open the mystery packs, in the HWs world...that's not cool...

In my world it's not cool to put products that are for sale in a container that doesn't show what you are buying either.
We need a complete list of what's available so everyone will know what to look for. I'm up to date on most all but the dark blue mystery one. Must be the same one that's in Roberts avatar.

<---Yup, 2008, #190 HW mystery car xB...straight from a Malaysian eBayer on 1/8/08. First one on SL, maybe one of the first in the US. Look for mix "G" mystery blisters. I won't tear a mystery open, but if some already has, I just have to look!

Hey Jeff, is this the one? It doesn't really exist. At least as you and I see it. Trust me. Special FX, smoke and mirrors, life's an illusion, your perception is reality! "Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear... Bruce Lee"

The clear xB could be the variant for the Mystery line this year. Last year about 70% of the Mystery cars had a second release variant.

Heres the three different X-Raycers packages available. The early one has the red Vandetta, where the newer ones have the gold Ferrari 360 Modena. Early cardboard and lower graphics completely different. Just picked up the early 5-pack.

There are three xB's in this series. I have all 3 from K-Mart. Very cool set to match the plain Maisto versions.

Notice how they keep the xB on TOP where it belongs.

It's NOT burgundy , It's Black Cherry Pearl or BCP for short.

maybe its supposed to be BCP, but their colors r off. the closest to fac color is the matchbox white. i appreciate the fact that ur a Scion purist. would be nice if someone came out with factory colors tho.

I know but they are close enough for me. They have many BCP xB toys so I'm not complaining.
I just redid my AC ***** with TCM speed wheels xBs now that my interior theme is silver. The red X Raycers ones had to go.
