Notes:
These things were great. You put the key in the back, squeezed it and watched the car absolutely fly. I mean these things flew. They were first released by Kidco in 1980 but after being bought over by Universal Group in 1982 they were later released under the Matchbox brand. There were sports cars, police cars, big rigs, pick-up trucks and some licensed ones too like The A-Team van shown here as well as a Knight Rider K.I.T.T. and a Magnum P.I. car too.
