I thought I saw one in one of Frank's post I while back.

There are quite a few changes to the Matchbox models going on (some Hot Wheels too).

New Rules (year ago or so) from the Mattel - NO more then 4 parts for COST/Ease of assembly. More Plastic. Only two axles I beleive was another new guideline - Can't remember any others.

On HW mainlines no opening parts I beleive - Doors & Hoods are sealing up - Again that is on HW Mainlines.

I got this one last year at a show for a buck.
