Working on the Major Pack pages is kind of an inspiration...Here is the MP-9A. It came in the second type D box (left) and I was Lucky enough to get my hands on the first D box variation (right) at a very nice price.
And yes, I am showing off a bit !
OK... In this case, another addition: MP-9 !

Lovely! The box on the right (in my humble opinion) is the most difficult one to find.
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."

Hi!
I'am a big Major Pack fan and the MP-9 is one of my favorites!
I could buy dozens of them. Your boxes are very nice and the roadtrain seems to be in very good condition.
Here is a picture of a few Variations. Grey Trailers and Trailers with orange decals.
You may noticed that already, but I think the boxes have different plug-in units, too. Don't know if thats important for you Matchboxpat.
Greetings,
Linus

I can second this, Tinman, I'am still missing that one, too.Lovely! The box on the right (in my humble opinion) is the most difficult one to find.

At the moment inserts variations are taken into account on the Vintage Lesney site, but I am considering the idea.
MP-9a is a very beautiful model. Still missing the E Box (i've only been chasing MP and AP boxes for a couple of months).

My favorites of this model ...
The ones with the early wheels; the very distinct front wheels with the lug nuts on them and molded rear wheels.
The gray trailers because every other truck line has a silver trailer (besides, blue and gray is a classic color combo).
The orange decals, not because they are harder to find, but because it's a better decal with a different design (not just a different color).
