This week's Matchbox report sees me running through the second batch of the 2026 Collectors series. This is a heavy batch.

This week sees me make a start on the 4th batch of the 2026 Matchbox basic range. It is just 5 models long, as the batch consists of 10 in total.

Registration for the 2026 Matchbox European Convention is about to commence.

This week's Matchbox blog article sees me checking out the 2nd of 6 planned Walmart exclusive sets. MBX Rally III features 5 new looks, no carry forwards. I am loving 2026!

The second half of batch C of the 2026 basic range is not very long. So I had a little nose into my Matchbox collection and pulled out a classic to run through in addition to the new items.

This week's Matchbox blog is showcasing the first batch of 2026 Candy models. However, with yet another small report, I went the extra mile this week, and dived deep back.

This week's Matchbox blog is a fairly short one, as I have a look at the first half of batch C of the 2026 basic range.

In this week's Matchbox blog, I have a look at the first batch of 2026 Working Rigs. But, as it was so short, I dug out a few classics to pad my report out.

It is time to run down the second half of batch B of the 2026 Matchbox basic range. Except for a lack of a Target model. They have been a little slow in coming.

This week, I return to the items that Wheel Collectors sent over. This time, it is the first batch of the 2026 Collectors series, which does include a surprise.

This week sees me tackle the first half of the second batch of Matchbox basic range models. There were 10 in the batch, so it just went over my limit for doing them all in one go. It makes for a shorter report. But, as last week was shorter as well, it sort of fits in.

This week, my Matchbox Monday article showcases the first Walmart exclusive (in the USA, other countries may have them in other stores). For 2026, Matchbox appears to have really stepped up their exclusives game.

The second half of the first batch of 2026 basic range models is the subject of this week's Matchbox blog. And this includes all the new castings that debuted in this batch.

I think that the first batch of the Matchbox 2026 Moving Parts series is possibly my favourite batch of the year. So much good stuff in it. I can't wait to see if they can prove me wrong.

Yes, it's time to make a start on the 2026 Matchbox model year. As I tend to do, I will begin with some basic range models. Only half, as there was a lot in the batch.

This is it. The final Matchbox blog report for 2025 items. Next week I begin the 2026 items. I finish with the last Working Rigs batch of 2025, along with the final Mattel Creations release of the year.

This week sees me finish off the 2025 Matchbox basic range, along with a little bonus model to finish things off.

This week sees me running through the final batch of 2025 Moving Parts from the Matchbox brand, which I was lucky to have the Super Chase from Wheel Collectors as well.

Time for me to split the final batch of Matchbox 2025 basic range models in 2 and work my way through the first half. I am edging closer to finishing off the 2025 year.

This week, my Matchbox blog focuses on the final batch of the 2025 Collectors series, which sees us getting the last 6 castings, 2 new, 2 old, 2 Porsche!

In this week's Matchbox blog, I take a look at the second batch of Matchbox Candy for 2025. This batch is made up of half new and half carry forward items.

This week sees me tackle the last half of the penultimate Matchbox basic range batch of the year. Batch L, part 2.
