Re: B5 boxes.
Good stuff—Yes, the boxes are fascinating and so many variations! Love the 59a’s!
With the “stay at home” order in place here, I have been updating my cataloging including my boxes.
Have used Matchbox Pats site a lot and learning something new all the time.
Have been working on the RW boxes with “New Model “ on them. Getting closer but still lacking a dozen or so. From the few B boxes thru the numerous E boxes and a handful of F’s.
Stay home and stay safe for now......

Durangokid, from the feed back on the posts it seems that little interest is shown
about the boxes which is a pity. As the boxes are just as collectable as the model variations.

Re: B5 boxes.
Boxes are fun for sure. I think I have 3 different boxes for the green 64 MG. So I have 3 green mg's in my display case.
Wish they would have made some models in more colors.

Re: B5 boxes.
I agree, Matchbox Pat's site is a great source of information and certainly first call when checking boxes. I notice that an increasing number of sellers are splitting their auctions selling model & box separately and early boxes appear to get a premium. It does seem harder to get quality boxes at good prices.
