Manufacturer-Info

Matchbox is a popular toy brand which was introduced by Lesney Products in 1953 and is now owned by “Mattel, Inc.” The brand was so named as the original die-cast Matchbox toys were sold in boxes similar in style and size to those in which matches were sold. Subsequently the brand would encompass a broad range of toys including larger scale die-cast models and various non die-cast lines such as plastic model kits and action figures. During the 1980s, Matchbox started to switch to the more conventional plastic and cardboard "blister packs" that were used by other die cast toy brands such as “Hot Wheels”. The box style packaging was re-introduced for the collectors' market in recent years, particularly with the release of the "35th Anniversary of Superfast" series in 2004.

Model-Info

The first 9000 models, launched in 1988 during the ‘Miniatures-series’, were red-metallic and ‘Made in Macau’. From 1990 on, all 9000 were produced in China. They were sold in several different boxes, blister-cards and multi-packs. The silver-metallic one is a rare item, ‘cause it was available only in the USA. The blue-metallic 9000 with the ‘Laserwheels’ was offered in the special ‘Matchbox-Lasers’-serial.
