MBX Service | Tuk-Tuk

The Tuk-Tuk is an iconic land vehicle, which has become an everyday transport in Thailand that has many origins dating back to the 1880s. Its significance in culture certainly knows what this three-wheeled vehicle is all about.

This, of course, is about the die-cast representation of a generic public transport that has been popular in Thailaind and some countries in Southeast Asia. It's been under the radar for the Matchbox team to produce this beloved transport vehicle, and they made it happen whne it first debute in 2017. The second release gets a spotlight as it is more with the realistic colours.

MBX Road Trip | Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser

A Station Wagon (also called a Wagon in the US) or an Estate Car (or short for Estate, a term used in the UK) is mostly known as a family vehicle even before the crossovers or the SUVs became the ‘modern’ ride. It is an automotive body-style variant of a sedan/saloon with a roof extended rearward over shared passenger/cargo.

The origin goes back to the 1910s, but the modern station wagon became known by the mid-1940s to the 1970s. It became a part of pop culture often depicted in film and television. But the 1990s saw its appearance in “That 70’s Show” with the Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser that also appeared in the recent spinoff of that series in 2023.
