Night Burner

Night Burner Debut Series First Editions as Mega Thrust Produced 2006 - Present Designer Phil Riehlman Number 046

Description

The Night Burner (originally named Mega Thrust) debuted in the 2006 First Editions Series. The name was changed in 2008 to Night Burner. The Night Burner has a special feature: when the exhaust pipe is blown into, the turbine spins and makes a kazoo/whistle type sound. In 2009, there was a minor casting change to the base where the embossed Hot Wheels insignia was removed - See picture in Gallery. The casting was changed again in 2017, where the front grill was made part of the base.
