It is a shame they can't get the original sponsor logos for these throwback cars, but it's understandable, especially for older sponsors that aren't around anymore/rebranded/under new ownership/etc. I know last year's 75th anniversary cars were impressive just getting anything on them.
Im just happy i found a kimi car last week at target lol. I had to pull the trigger saying as ill never see another in my life. Funny how kimi runs one race and gets a diecast lol. It worked tho, i bought it hook line and sinker 😂
The Hendrick car looks like it has the Liquid Color paint on it. Picked one up this morning and it is definitely different from the other cars in the set. Will have to look out for more restock to compare with the other Hendricks Car to see if there is a chase variation or if they all come with the liquid paint.
Glad I'm not the only one that thought this! I picked it up and was like hey this is awfully shiny and it's in the spot on back of card where the chase car normally is,definitely isn't the paint on just the regular cars
been collecting for years, gotta say ...most stores have very limited items anymore, I have to find my beauties on line mostly.... farewell to the toy stores It is nice to see these throw backs...
Three hendrick throwback schemes have been revealed, Chase driving the Jr throwback, Larson with the Bodine throwback, and Bowman with the jimmie throwback. If the same trend keeps on going, do we see a rainbow warrior throwback for Byron?
It's the flames one from around 2010 or so. I wish I could post pictures here in replies because I have one where they pixelated it to try to hide it for the reveal
@@COCarDude Respond to this comment at the end of the summer (August) and tell me how many of these cars are on your pegs, and I’ll say how many are on mine. I have about 10 Walmarts Targets and Meijers around me. All you comment liking deeriders reply too. I’m not saying they are good. They totally suck, but for 5 bucks in the stores people still buy them out. It also depends on your amount of foot traffic, I’m from a mid sized city, so if it’s a small town store then it makes sense that they wouldn’t sell.
@RC.41 I'm guessing you live in Michigan or Ohio based on the Meijer comment. I live in Colorado, so I almost guarantee that they will still be hanging on pegs here but ill check back w you then
I'm personally not huge on these but it makes sense. We won't have the new moulds for Ford and Toyota for a few months still so better to have something than nothing.
no sponsors sucks,..BIG. I WILL say, it's odd, real odd that Bodines didn't have the "All star racing" name as a sponsor on it,....THAT WAS Rick Hendricks sponsor name WITH his Chevy dealers backing it.
I would be okay with these if ONLY they made all the Hendrick drivers that raced for the organization. Where’s: 5 Kyle Busch 5 Casey Mears 24 William Byron 48 Alex Bowman 25 Jerry Nadeau 25 Joe Nemechek 50 Ricky Craven 25 W. Dallenback I might be missing a few others.
The only way Ill be able to get these is online from slugs that price them at $20 because the target and Walmarts I go to only have ones from 4 years ago and the packaging's old, dusty and destroyed.
I definitely want the Hendrick 40th anniversary one ! Probably never find it though all my Walmart and Target has are older ones very rarely anything new
I am the worst Hendrick motorsports fan ever I do not like the team or any of their drivers the back then they used to have really good drivers and I am excited to find this wave and Walmart or target but I feel like they should’ve done a Hendrick motorsports winter circles with himDale juniors 2014 win in a winter circle that would’ve been really cool. Jeff Gordon last win Kyle Busches win that would’ve been really cool but I just feel like they should’ve made it winner your circles
Where's the "laugh" react button for YT? These are awful. I know you're doing your best to hide your disappointment because it's a sponsored video... but... yeah. 😂
It seems quite counterintuitive to have the packaging say "NASCAR Authentics" when they didn't appropriate funding to include ANY of the sponsorship logos. LOL What's ironic is NASCAR probably charges more than most any organization for the use of its name, logos, etc... So, did Lionel make this choice on its own, or did NASCAR pretty much say, you're on your own and we provide any assistance whatsoever to make these cars truly authentic... or even close.
Lionel is so cheap. Like Mr Krabs. So dumb. JUST MAKE SOME GOOD CARS! Like back in 2018. Those diecasts were WAAAAY better than whatever these cheap cereal box cars. These are the things that drive me crazy
Not being able to get the licenses to put the actual sponsors on the cars is super lame. It honestly makes me wonder why these even got made in the first place. Seems like a half measure at most. These could be absolutely amazing but the reality is that these just suck. I won’t even consider buying a single one of them. And that makes me sad. On a lighter note, love the chill outro music!
I think Christopher Bell will win this weekend at Kansas and that's not a prediction it's a spoiler because he has 2 poles there in the next generation car 1 pole in trucks and xfinity and xfinity series winner in 2017
When are you gonna make a NASCAR race? You should make one now or later soon get your old cars or new ones or something make a new NASCAR race and make your tracks however you want please please please please thank you please and thank you. Make one.
These are all the definition of basic. Most of em are repackaged from the 75th anniversary champions set just with the 40th logo. Absolutely terrible. 3:49 You won’t be able to give em away Eric 😂
Damn, what was this….anti-Ford diecast cars!!!😂🤣😂 Mark Martin ran Ford for 90% of his cup races & a few years with Chevy….🤔💭 Why not the iconic “rustic maroon”Folgers or the blue “Decaf” Folgers Number 6 Mark Martin Ford Thundered Bird??? Tell me that wouldn’t have been Bad-Ass Cool!!!!
@@midwesttrainchasers8587 exactly. EXACTLY! Lionel will do anything to make a quick buck and lets not forget HMS payed them to do this wave. And HMS fans will by any product at any given price
These look like something I would get out of a cereal box
The good ol' days when cereal box toys were worth digging for!
These would be worth digging out of a cereal box imo, not worth buying from the store
Racing Champions had more detail
@@EdwardDean-z4fRacing Champions also had the real sponsors and at least tried to look like the actual manufacturer cars.
No logos is wild. No idea why they’d even attempt this. Eric acting like he likes these is Cap🧢
I'm not buying them
He has to act like he likes them, he’s being paid to promote them.
@@sleezyimpalass yeah. I said he’s acting like it but he doesn’t. Didn’t think I had to clarify. Glad I could help.
yea he is getting paided and you have to get licences by the brands

I didn’t buy the 75th champions set cause of the lack of sponsors.
Thanks for 40 years of awesome racing Hendrick! There are more exciting races to come! Happy anniversary!
I wish nascar would just move on from Lionel
They suck. Overpriced and no Logos. Unreal
@@Jmcc0I read this as no legos
@@jbuckthemanlol same
They also take forever to get new diecasts out...back in the good ole days new diecasts on the pegs the weekend of the Budweiser Shootout.
Yea lionel out
RIP Tim Richmond! Please put him, Harry Gant, Harry Hyde, and Geoff Bodine in the hall of fame!
Amen
Lionel definitely could get the sponsors they offered jr’s car they just want to save money
They don't care and neither do the sponsors.
They prob couldnt get one sponsor for a car and decided to do make all of them sponsorless
If they can make old cars (like Dale Earnhardt's 1998 Daytona 500 car for example), then yeah, I don't see why they can't have sponsors on these.
Awesome, can't wait to see them in a year lol
I wish lionel wasnt nascar's toy provider 😢
Fr
Swing and a miss! Modern Camaros with throwback schemes and no sponsor decals? Honestly not sure what the point is...
The hendrick glaze this season by fox and this is crazy
It’s awful and it’s every week
Action was always better and always will be..... yea i said it.
If you gotta say "yeah I said it" after a statement, just do us all a favor and shut up.
Agree ^ no need for that. Obviously there’s no comparison between the two. It would be like me vs Kyle Larson at driving. Not comparable
Im just happy i found a kimi car last week at target lol. I had to pull the trigger saying as ill never see another in my life. Funny how kimi runs one race and gets a diecast lol. It worked tho, i bought it hook line and sinker 😂
I found that one and the hauler as well, I was surprised, but I grabbed them and haven't seen a single one of either since!

These are gonna be peg warmers for sure. We will see these hanging up for years
Nobody wants the past 4 waves they all have been peg warming except liquid color
Yeah no we won’t. Why are people wrong so confidently?
@@RC.41 I guess we will see what the future holds lol

Terry Labonte's Keloggs Corn Flake's paint scheme has to be one of my all time favorite!
no sponsors sucks,..BIG. I WILL say, it's odd, real odd that Bodines didn't have the "All star racing" name as a sponsor on it,....THAT WAS Rick Hendricks sponsor name WITH his Chevy dealers backing it.
They couldn't at least get DuPont for Jeff? That's absolutely the one they should spring for. Plus, it's not like DuPont has bad blood with Nascar
I can never find the ones I want at Walmart or Target😞
I know it
You can going pick ?
Pretty cool that they asked you to do that.
Gotta pick some of these up when they release. Did Lionel say when they would release?
You seriously would spend money on these? Like really
I would be okay with these if ONLY they made all the Hendrick drivers that raced for the organization.
Where’s:
5 Kyle Busch
5 Casey Mears
24 William Byron
48 Alex Bowman
25 Jerry Nadeau
25 Joe Nemechek
50 Ricky Craven
25 W. Dallenback
I might be missing a few others.
I have to check but may have these cars when they came out with sponsors!! From Action company.
Have to find them I should buy 2 sets and put my own decals on one set
You shouldn’t buy them at all leave them on the shelf where they belong
@RedneckJesus88 I'm a collector I collect all diecast
Eric do you own any sheet metal from nascars? I just bought the nose of Sheldon Creed and Ty Gibbs’s supras
Gordon's rainbow car was the best looking paint scheme HMS made
The only way Ill be able to get these is online from slugs that price them at $20 because the target and Walmarts I go to only have ones from 4 years ago and the packaging's old, dusty and destroyed.
@eric estepp what is your favorite nascar team?
Just say your doing an advertisement in the beginning next time so I can skip it
I definitely want the Hendrick 40th anniversary one ! Probably never find it though all my Walmart and Target has are older ones very rarely anything new
Looks like the dale Jr had liquid color finish but I don't think I saw a sticker
Love the classy music!😊
There are plenty of this type of NASCAR diecast that came out without sponsors,so this is NOT a New thing!!😁😁
We need the Double E Cup Series to return

Lionel should be ashamed of the overpriced garbage they've been giving us.
My Walmart doesn’t sell any more NASCAR so are they going to start selling them again
I live in Michigan so are Walmart going to sell them again
I need to get it at the store next time.
Where's the "laugh" react button for YT? These are awful. I know you're doing your best to hide your disappointment because it's a sponsored video... but... yeah. 😂
I want the complete set.
awesome if i see them at the store ill get em all
It may be an unpopular opinion but the cars without the sponsors look kind of cool.

Ehhh I don't dig the fantasy NASCAR Next Gen diecasts. I wish it was a normal Wave honestly.
I don't see why someone would actually wanted a next gen model in old car colors without even sponsors on it...
Pretty cool, Eric
I really wish they could get the real logos on the car, without them the cars just look unfinished
Lionel is so cheap. Like Mr Krabs. So dumb. JUST MAKE SOME GOOD CARS! Like back in 2018. Those diecasts were WAAAAY better than whatever these cheap cereal box cars. These are the things that drive me crazy
im still mad Kyle Busch isn't in the Hendrick Motorsports set he drove for them and he's back in a Chevy
I was excited until I saw none of them have sponsors. Very lame and not worth the $5+ they will want for these
Jgr when?
I want a Jeff, Jimmie, Junior, and the 40th anniversary diecast
Yea too me ❤❤❤

Wonder how much these diecast will cost a piece? If anyone has a answer let me know thanks and take care.
i mad no pop tart logo
👍🇺🇸👍
I've never yawned harder
Sadly money is more important than your opinion
I want all of them
Damn, the Kyle Busch, Kasey Kahne, Casey Mears, and Brian Vickers snubs is crazy
Would love to win one of those go JJ7time ❤
Why would anyone buy them without the original sponsors
to bad i can't collect any they stopped selling them up here in 2019/20
Look straight out of a cereal box..... very disappointed
W
Anyone who thinks there isn’t a Hendrick bias, is lying. They would never sanction another anniversary wave for any other team.
Cool😎 cars
TIM RICHMOND DIECAST
I think Christopher Bell will win this weekend at Kansas and that's not a prediction it's a spoiler because he has 2 poles there in the next generation car 1 pole in trucks and xfinity and xfinity series winner in 2017
I have Bell winning too. The month of April has been horrible to him, I hope he bounce back on top this weekend

I wish they would put the effort in to get the sponsors back, these just don’t look very good
The only one that even looks good is Mark Martin’s

It cool
The quality of Lionel has dropped and im sad
These just don't look right. Really missing the real look of the original cars. Not a fan of these. I'll pass.
Life long Hendrick fan here (and model train fan)
LIONEL TAKE MORE OF MY MONEY DAMN IT
They all look so bad without logos .
Yea ! I know let see me
I would like to remind everybody that Lionel STILL HAS NOT released the first wave of this year! Lionel has not released WAVE 1 for 2024!
They did in march. Though it was all 2023 cars
these look awful. please quit uploading commercials.
They forgot Kyle Busch lol
Nah they didn’t include him because it would probably be controversial
@Itsgamingtime11-co5kp I know it would be funny though and I think him and Hendrick get along now so maybe in the future
It new😊
Does Anybody Kinda Find It Sad That This Guy Is Sponsored By Lionel. The Lionel That Makes Crappy NASCAR Diecasts?
L wave
No
