MB1251 : Road Stripe King

Model Details
Brand Matchbox Original
Model Road Stripe King
Matchbox Catalog Entry: MB1251

New for 2021 is a great little Original design form the team at Matchbox, a generic road maintenance vehicle used for painting the lines on the road, but this one has a little something different; in what I think is a great move from the design team the rear bed as the ability to take a pen or pencil so as you move the vehicle around on some paper it will draw the road marking lines.

For its first outing in the basic range it comes in a bright yellow with ”Road Maintenance” livery, the let down is that as generic models are designed to save Mattel money you would think they could have at least included an interior to the cab, maybe as part of the rear bed to give that added realism.

I look forward to seeing what comes in the future with this casting, but one thing is for certain.  The kids are going to love this one.
