Design Details & Easter Eggs
- Removable Canvas Canopy: On specialized utility variants, the model features a precision-molded plastic texturized "canvas" canopy cover piece over the rear flatbed area that can be completely detached to expose the lower bed rails.
- The Treasure Chase Variant: A highly rare Chase Car edition of the Mooneyes release features premium gold-anodized chrome accents across the front VW logo emblem, bumpers, and steel hubcaps, limited to a small production run worldwide.
- Air-Cooled Engine Panel: Because the real-world Type 2 utilizes a rear-engine layout, the casting design features molded louvered cooling vents on the lower rear side quarter panels, directly beneath the cargo flatbed floor, replicating the ventilation required for the classic boxer engine.
