M2 Machines Auto-Thentics Releases

Castline, Inc. seems to have started this line around January of 2008 and already they're making their mark in the world of diecast. I've read that each car will be released in limited numbers of around 4000 to 5000 pieces for each model/color. That means, when you see them, you'd better get them before they're gone! This, then, is the release order for the M2 Machines Auto-Thentics line so far. I will try to keep it updated as new ones are released. The cars in each series each have a different paint scheme and/or wheel combination. Updated February 3rd, 2011.
