MATCHBOX - MBX Fire Rig - Yellow

For a generic, this is not too bad, and with a working ladder too, this is a rare Matchbox that has moving parts, and decent decals too, and the modern version of the old style dot dash wheels finish this off perfectly, NOW, i know i have gone on about loathing Generics, and I do, i don't agree with them, they are a way to screw money out of the child, or collector, which has no basis in reality.

But very occasionally one pops along, like the old British Ice Cream truck, that just looks right, even if the basis of the Ice Cream truck was based on an old Bedford, this Fire truck is a really good attempt, and one i am happy to have in my collection, but i cant say that for all generics.
