Please check out the other AcceleRacers pages listed by relevancy

The AcceleRacers series debuted in 2005 alongside a film series of the same name and was commonly available across the US, Canada, and Europe. It consisted of four subsets (Teku, Metal Maniacs, Racing Drones, and Silencerz) of nine models coinciding with the teams shown in the films. Vehicles of this lineup were designed with "track performance in mind" and were "uniquely proportioned to have a low center of gravity". Some plastic-bodied variants of this series were painted with an Anodized coat, giving them a metallic finish unobtainable by other methods. Blister packaging was ribbed to obscure six-digit laser-etched base codes that unlocked downloadable bonus content on the cartoonnetwork.com website and playable vehicles in the online multiplayer video game, Realm Champion.

Four motorcycles were initially planned to have debuted under each subset (Nightlife, Jaw Jammer, RD-07, Magnesium), making 40 models total (10 castings for each sub-series), but went unreleased due to the aforementioned focus on track performance. This 2004 developmental change is reflected in the Toy # and Col. # sections displayed below. Two of these AcceleRacers motorcycle concepts, Airy 8 (formerly Jaw Jammer) and Hammer Sled (rejected in favour of Magnesium), were later released in the 2005 and 2006 mainline lineups due to being Design Team favorites.

Several patent images and descriptions[1] [2] were registered in late 2004 through 2005 that depicted several key elements and omitted features from the series design process. Multiple parts of the Racing Drones subseries blister cards were planned to have been partially encrypted in a 'coded language' that corresponded with characters from the English alphabet.
