    1983 matchbox. Big Blue if you’re not familiar with this one the body lifts up to show the single middle seat and blown front engine. It’s another version of the Hot Chocolate and the Dragon Wheels

    Those M2s are screwed down to the base... surely not something they're getting away with right there in the stores?

    I found this one, mint, loose in my mystery Hotwheels box when moving recently. I’ll dig it out in a bit.

    Haven’t heard anything about it yet. Thought you were talking about watching a movie tonight. I’ll have to keep an eye out for it.

    Although I’ve never seen it, I’ve been told that there is a rare flying bug that has white rockets on the roof. I also don’t know if that’s on the red one or the orange one. Love to have it in my collection if you ever see it.

    I think you’re right, my work buddy said it’s worth a small fortune. Just bought a house, haven’t had much time for cars lately. Life is happening but I’ll keep an eye out.

    The tow truck I’ve seen at some shows from bad, played with, to mint condition. Haven’t seen it in the blister pack though. Not familiar with the ambulance. Is it a matchbox?

    The ambulance is Matchbox.. I've got a few different ones, different stripes and paint schemes and colors. Never seen one with a sticker on it though.. that's what was different and caught my eye on this one.

    I'm guessing the nicer condition tow trucks are going for a pretty penny... Google just informed me there was also a yellow one at some point. I'm not disappointed in the tow truck.. seems a lot of them out there are missing some or all of the plastic for the tow boom etc. Mine is all there.. just missing a bit of paint. Maybe some day I will figure out the decal/tampo thing and be able to restore some of these more accurately.
