![]() Only the MB611 Nissan Z has more in total (5 non-consecutive years, 2 pairs (2004-5, 2007-8), followed by a single (2021). Daft fact, this is the first Nissan to reach 4 consecutive years as a basic range issue in the Mattel era. This is its fourth year in the basic range. So the pictures of the packages (apart from 1 as I ripped the model out too quick) are the ROW (or International as Mattel call them) short card variety. So as the UK is in one of the ROW regions, assortments come in boxes of 72, not boxes of 24, and the cards for the models are much shorter. There are 14 models in the assortment, so I have split it into 2 halves, with the first 7 in this report, and the other 7 coming soon in a later one. But luckily, being in the UK, Tesco has brought in batch A. ![]() Hopefully they should be receiving stock any moment, so keep an eye on their eBay listings here, or their new website here which is up and running and you will start seeing a tonne of new Matchbox product (and others too, I heard there are other manufacturers out there). As such, my usual Matchbox provider, Wheel Collectors, being USA based, are still waiting too. Now I know many countries around the world are still waiting for them to arrive, included lots of places in USA (which is usually one of the best for new stuff). I bided my time and now just a few months later than scheduled, I have batch A of 22 to post. It took its time, but you know the old saying, good things come to those who wait.
