MATCHBOX INTERNATIONAL TERRASTAR AMBULANCE NO19 BOEING FIRE AMBULANCE 1/64

Two per 24 count case of the latest 2024 Case E and a "so so" casting which might just have won over a few more collectors on account of its licensed Boeing livery.
The Matchbox International TerraStar Ambulance has always been maligned almost entirely due to its all plastic body which doesn't even have an interior either! Very Maisto-esque but something we've had to get used to over the years with continuous cost saving in order to make a slither of profit in the US where they still often only cost just one Dollar!
Mint and boxed.
