Variation: Ford Police Interceptor Matchbox 2014

This variation of the "Ford Police Interceptor" from 2014 Matchbox MBX Heroic Rescue is dark green with "Marshall", interceptor star, and gold and black stripe on the sides, clear windows and light bar, black interior, on a black plastic Thailand base.

 In a quote from a Matchbox representative "We also had a spelling issue on the metallic green Ford Police interceptor. The incorrect spelling of ”MARSHALL” will be corrected to say “MARSHAL” on both the car as well as the illustrations on all packages"

 Did you know? The Ford Police Interceptor had the fastest lap time ever recorded in police-car testing. Equipped with all-wheel drive it has the ability to go from 0-60 mph in under 6 seconds - matchbox.wikia.com



Found On The Pegs: Matchbox variation Ford Police Interceptor



These Matchbox variations of the "Ford Police Interceptor" have Marshall on the sides of the car and on the card. Both the card and car have been corrected to one "L". This is the third wave of this mix to hit my area. I have not seen the single "L" version so to me its the rare version. What do you think?
