April 2004 Matchbox Releases

As usual here is a list and a small description (my own) of all the Matchbox models that are released so far in this month. Remember I update this list only when I get the model in my collection. This list will be updated as I get new models until then Happy Collecting. Continuing the tradition of last couple of years I am listing the "MW-???" code that shows the number that the model is released under in the year 2004. The next code is the "Catalog listing." The last set of codes is a new item, the "MAN number." This is a unique number that can help identify the models easily. Feel free to click at the link and see the model. Please remember I cannot get pictures of every single model and post it on the web but I will try my best to post good quality pictures. I may be a little slow in linking pictures so do come back and visit previous months to view the models. Or you may bookmark my Picture Gallery and visit it often. Now Enjoy the new Matcbox.
