VARIANT METALLICAR TO BE RELEASED AT SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON
SALEM, NH (May 4) – CineQuest.com and Greenlight Collectibles are releasing a special episode-specific Supernatural die-cast Metallicar this summer, complete with Enochian warning.
The San Diego Comic-Con exclusive variant is based on the Season 9 episode Blade Runners in which Sam and Dean Winchester find that Abbadon’s henchmen have ransacked and keyed Dean’s 1967 Chevy Impala SS in a search for The First Blade, engraving a warning: “Be Afraid, Your Queen.”
The message, scratched into the driver’s side doors and translated by Crowley, is written in Enochian, a language used by angels and demons.
The black 1967 4-door Chevrolet Impala SS was fan-dubbed the Metallicar due to Dean Winchester’s love of classic rock music. The car has been featured prominently throughout the series, most notably in the Season 5 finale, Swan Song, in which the Impala – embued with so many of the boys’ memories – helps Sam Winchester fight back against Lucifer.
“We felt we wanted to celebrate the coming of Season 10 this fall by launching what we see as a series of episode-specific Metallicars,” CineQuest.com President Mark Del Vecchio said. “The car is a key character throughout the series and we felt we wanted to pay tribute with a variant.” Del Vecchio said there will be an announcement at San Diego Comic-Con regarding future variants and special editions.
Limited to 1,000 pieces worldwide, the variant 1:64 die-cast car will be released at San Diego Comic-Con 2014 (July 24-27) at the CineQuest.com booth (Booth No. 4738). A limited number will be sold each day of the convention to ensure all attendees have a chance to purchase the variant.
