Hi All,
I hope this is OK to post here as this is from a Matchbox group that I belong to. If not, please remove it. I think Tyco aquired Matchbox in 1992 ( my two favorite toys ). I'm not sure when Matchbox production by Tyco ended, but It looks like this was given to Tyco employees in white. The original poster of this picture gave me permission to copy and post it here. He says he has sold this one but has one more. I DO NOT know this person personaly. Has anyone else seen one of these before? I'm not buying but thought maybe you all might find it interesting.
Mike

A bit of role reversal, companies usually give out limited toy train kits/models to their employees. Neat looking truck though. Here was mine I uncovered awhile ago from after being hidden away for years.
