Matchbox Star Car Collection: The Untouchables - Ford Model A Coupe (Special Edition)

This item is a Matchbox 'Star Car Collection' die-cast toy vehicle, specifically a 'Ford Model A Coupe' from 'The Untouchables' series. The toy car itself is encased in its original, sealed blister packaging. The car appears to be dark gray or black in color, representing a vintage Ford Model A Coupe, a vehicle commonly associated with the Prohibition era, aligning with the theme of 'The Untouchables'. The packaging features a cardboard backing card with an orange border and a clear plastic bubble housing the vehicle. The card prominently displays the 'MATCHBOX' logo, 'STAR CAR COLLECTION' in red and gold lettering, and 'THE UNTOUCHABLES' title, along with a graphic that appears to be from the film or TV series. A yellow star sticker on the top left indicates this is a 'SPECIAL EDITION'. A retail sticker on the top right shows pricing information, including '$2.97' and '$6.09', suggesting it may have been marked down at some point or had a previous price. The packaging itself shows signs of shelf wear, including some creasing or bending visible on the cardboard backing, particularly near the top where the hanger tab is located. The plastic bubble is intact but may have minor scuffs from handling. Overall, the item is in good, unopened condition, which is a key factor for collectors. The detailed graphics and branding indicate a mass-produced collectible toy from a well-known manufacturer, likely dating back to the late 20th century, given the style of packaging and the movie tie-in.
