Another Hess Toy first, the introduction of a car instead of a truck to the series. The Hess Patrol Car featured red and blue emergency lights and a siren sound. A special electronic chip creates two types of siren sounds and enables a sophisticated sequence of changing lights from pulsating headlights to alternating flashing emergency lights and 8 internally illuminated Hess logos on the car. There were 1,500,000 of these toys produced for the 1993 holiday season.
