Welcome to the board!

If it's the basic Matchbox line of cars you seek,try your local toys r us,wal mart,target,meijer...no shipping charges this way.

:wave: welcome!

The most rare Matchbox variations in recent years tend to be toys sold off in China by factory workers or even the factory using up excess parts from different production runs.So if you have friends working at the factory or even living nearby there are chances to collect model variations that will never come to USA or Europe unless bought on ebay from Chinese collectors with Mattel Matchbox connections....So China is a very good place to find Matchbox from the past 10 years!

Thanks so much! I will.
Ten years ago, I began to collect matchbox in China. Until I come here I found my collections are so normal and so few.

I like this forums so much. Try my best for MB

Thanks AGAIN!!
