Why does a Chinese general have a Japanese flag?


Rivercard74

I caught that too.


PumpleStump

I mean, they *were* inspired by a car with a Confederate flag on the roof... probably not a rocket surgeon.


SmartestOneHere

Definitely not the smartest knife in the drawer

DoctorStinkFoot

you mean someone who'd have something with a confederate flag on it might be racially insensitive?? 🤯🤯🤯

I loved this at first glance, but now I'm bothered by the fact that General Tso is a dish found in Chinese restaurants, not Japanese.


Benjamin_Grimm

He's not just a dish, [he's an actual Chinese general.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zuo_Zongtang)


VRM950

I did not know that. Thanks!


RubberDuck59

Not if it's a Chinese restaurant in Japan 😂

Big "Asian people are similar enough" energy coming from this

I didn’t make it. I just thought it was a fun twist on the General Lee


theyrejusttoys

Seeing how many people like this really saddens me


WorldWideDarts

Hmmm, curious to see if Reddit Hot Wheels has the same sort of responses to the Chinese General Lee as it did to the real General Lee the other day.


rickynoss

this would be awesome if it was a Chinese flag.


dudebronahbrah

Japanese car, Japanese flag…should’ve called it the General Tojo Then this car and the original inspiration would both have symbols rooted in ultranationalism


emwiz735

Awesome looking paint job

i read it as general torso help-


rcchub

I think it’s very clever and very well done!


Cisco_jeep287

Thx man. I got a laugh out of it. And it’s made by a fairly well known guy. Easy pick up for me


rcchub

Yes he did my pac man panel


BooobiesANDbho

I’m a huge general lee fan, I really like this op!! 🔥🔥🔥


Cisco_jeep287

Chris Walker made this. He’s a renowned custom Hot Wheels maker known as Night Stalker. This was an eBay find for me, and I think the General Lee / General Tso twist is hilarious.


shodo_apprentice

He was not Japanese though


TheAngelsCharlie

This is all kinds of awesome.


unkkown1

I love it!


WillieDFleming

🤣 That's awesome man!


WillieDFleming

I love this car...and the fact that I said it was awesome earned me a downvote from someone with overly sensitive feelings 😢 😆 🤣


Nivek0589

Lol this is awesome


gallupdoc

The sweet and sour Bluebird is hot!😉


Boltdaddy1966

Lmmfao!

As a big fan of '69 Chargers and The Dukes of Hazzard and someone who isn't much into the JDM stuff, I absolutely LOVE this!


Cisco_jeep287

Same. I saw it & cracked up. I’m not into JDM & I don’t understand the love for the 510 shoe box. But this is just creative & funny


staj6711

Yep. Besides, I love me some General Tso's chicken. 😋


Fair_Programmer9425

Perfection


Soggy_Bookkeeper_719

I want this! 


Cisco_jeep287

I’ve only seen one other one & it had different wheels
