I came across this variation at Rite Aid...at 1.59 (ouch). Normally I would only buy 1 or 2 of a newer casting that I enjoy, but 3 NEVER...and a 3rd at 1.59 ( I must be nutz LOL) but the mix this was with was a early mix.

Nice thin stripe, and a few other oddities, any one else notice it?

The Stripe...

Yeah, what HE said.

"Matchbox" Toys tampo is thinner on one, and i dont know if it is the blister or not but that one looks to have a different shaped front end? on the pics with the buttons look at the fender above the tires in the front of the bus is it just me or is there a difference there? cause it looks to me like the windows are actually different sizes on the same pic

looks like the drivers windshield is bigger on one.

Looks like the lower deck on the one in the blister is smaller.
