This is one of my favourite MBX castings. I have never seen the yellow one actually available for any decent price, and the black one also seems hard to find in good condition. |

Never had seen the yellow one before and like Ripa have always loved this casting. After a quick eBay search, I found a Buy it Now $9.99 for a lot of 4 Matchbox Collector's Choice which included the 944, 87 Corvette Convertible (black), '77 Corvette T-top (green), and Camaro Z/28 IROC (Purple). Judging by what the other listings for the 944 were going for (ranging from $12.99 to $38.00) , I thought I'd better jump on this listing rather than place a bid and hope for the best. The seller butchered the spelling of Camaro -CAMERO and Porsche -PORSCE which I'm sure didn't help his effort to sell at a high price

Was the Duckhams version sold internationally or was it UK only? I bought mine from a flea market when I was like 8 or 9 so it probably has been sold here somehow.. |

Did you end up buying it? If so, do you have a picture? You don't see a lot of white 944's that's for sure. It seems like almost every one is either black or red. Love the pearl white Matchbox. I just realized the only one I currently have is the black World Class release, although I had the green and red ones as a kid. |
