Matchbox Star Car Collection Happy Days '56 Ford Pick-Up

This item is a Matchbox 'Star Car Collection' Happy Days '56 Ford Pick-Up, still sealed in its original blister packaging. The primary colors of the packaging are orange, blue, and red with a clear plastic bubble encasing the die-cast truck. The top section of the card is orange and features the 'Matchbox' logo, 'STAR CAR COLLECTION' in prominent lettering, and a 'STAR CAR' emblem. The 'Ages 3 And Up' recommendation is also visible. Below this, there's a graphic of the cast from the TV show 'Happy Days' with the show's logo. A 'Special Edition' starburst is displayed on the left. The encapsulated vehicle is a red 1956 Ford Pick-Up truck, featuring the 'Happy Days' logo printed in white on its side doors. The truck has chrome-colored wheels with black accents. The lower part of the card prominently displays the 'Happy Days' logo again, along with 'MATCHBOX' and 'STAR CAR COLLECTION', clarifying the vehicle as a ''56 FORD PICK-UP'. The packaging appears to be in very good, unopened condition, with no visible tears, creases, or significant shelf wear. The plastic bubble is fully intact, ensuring the pristine condition of the die-cast model inside. This collectible piece is indicative of a tie-in merchandise product, likely produced in the late 1990s or early 2000s, given the typical release style for Matchbox Star Car collector series.
