I won one of those when I went to my first ECBR in Tellico. Just in case anyone wants to know the latest and past bronco toys out there, here's a really cool site. Some of you may already know it. Click on the Toys link and go from there. Very Cool!!

A store near me still has a HUGE selection of the Models of Yesteryear from this time period including 1 green Bronco.

I'm surprised they still have these sitting around unsold.

I wish I knew if any of these were worth anything.

Anyone know if any other of this vintage Matchbox are worth anything decent?

I would snag those puppies up! I have seen the green one go for at least $50 on ebay. I've never seen any in stores. I got mine from Drew at ECBR in 1999 as a door prize. Been on display ever sinse.

Did anyone ever see the Crazy Horse version? He He I made this out of a 100 year anniversary one. There is also one that was a limited Australian Swap Meet issue, with the 100Years stamp on the roof and the swap meet name on the hood. As I understand it, it was only exclusive to that meet. I got one from Ebay a few years back.

I need the green one. The Marlin Adventure Bronco is about the coolest Bronco model ever made, that thing is sweet!

That thing is awesome. You did a really nice job on that!

About a year ago I saw one of the red 100th anniversary ones in an antique store for $50. I had to pass on that, I bet its still sittin there.

Anyone who wants a Marlin Adventures one, there is one on Ebay rite now with two days left. The current price is 10 bucks with two days left. Look up Matchbox Bronco when you get there to find it. Good luck.;D

I think I still have a case or more of these, I will look. I know I have a couple cases of the version with the roof rack, cooler and fishing poles.

Drew ... Buddy ;) ;)
a post like this requires an almost instant follow up . Now you have a whole bunch of people in a rabid frenzy and I'm going to have to start shooting them so I can get in line ;D ;D

Let us know what you have or want to part with . I have the green one and it was assembled wrong so the rear driveshaft is not in the t-case . I too would be interested in 1 of anything you may have .

Your new best friend in the whole wide world ;D ;D ;D ;D
