Correction; David Tilley is a former MB Ambassador. The present Amb is Shabbir Malik who will be my roommate this year at ABQ; where a new Ambassador will be announced. This position is selected and awarded by Mattel management on an annual basis!

Crazy Matchbox guy
Thanks for the nice comments guys. I am humbled by your impression of me. I am just a collector like you. I just enjoy myself.

Now I do appear anywhere (if you want to talk Matchbox, I will talk Matchbox), so leave a message here and I will try to answer as best I can.

Now when it comes to gift sets and action packs, you may need to be a little more specific. These have been available since pretty much Matchbox started. There are gift sets from the late 1950s going right through to the present day, and and action packs have come and gone in different iterations. If I knew a little more of what was being sought, I may be able to see what I could do about lists.

Now pictures, these are a different story. Anyone who knows me knows that I am somebody who opens up all my models/sets/packages regardless of what it is. I only want the models, not the packaging they come in. So any gift sets or action packs I may have purchased over time will be long gone by now. Only the models will remain.

Sure Loose is Fine and most of the Action Packs I am interested in finding out about would probably be the ones from the 70s-80s such as the ones with Skybusters (Airline Action Packs)
What I have is the Lufthansa one (can't post pics of it yet though)
Thanks for the Replies
