Hi Mike,

Five years ago, when I was 40, my daughter surprised me a t-shirt, on front side the February calendar picture and a big MATCHBOX logo on back. I really loved it but it is away now.

I send you a special MB38 ( viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2122&start=20 , the same like in my display cabinet upper line 4th from left, made 210 pieces only!!!! ) if you continue the rest months.

I think it is not only my, it is all of our request, if it is possible.

Thank you and have a nice weekend!

Peter

Hi All

I see this thread has kind of been abandoned. A shame too. I came across a few of these model pictures and just love them. I thought the idea was a hilarious take on the typical show room model advertising a car. I never knew the pictures were from a calendar. I have Feb and April as previously posted in this thread stuck on a wall and also these other two. I do not know what month they were but they were not posted here as of yet, so I thought to share. These two and the Feb and April models are the only images I ever see come up in a Google search (the images I have are just copied from the net as a result of Goggle searches so image quality is not great and file size is small)

If Mike is still checking in on this post, or anyone else who has access to all the pictures, could they post them here? A scan would be perfect but at least a nice straight-on-view camera shot of each.

If anyone actually has the calendar I would love to buy from you a colour copy !!!!!!!!

Cheers!

Well you see Shane, most of us here are not into Girls, so we look at those pictures just for the Models... 8-)

You guys are great !!!!! :D

seriously though, I just love the creativeness of these pictures. Models go hand in hand with showing off cars, so why not collectable toy cars too? I just love the Matchbox commercials of kids driving real cars as well. Here are some examples of those
