Matchbox 2021 Power Grabs Mix A (Unboxing)

[@LaziLowcollectables]

Awesome lot ,very nice cars ,in 40 years they will be treasures for the next generation .Cheers

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Sorry, Laz, I missed your comment until now. Yes, I often wonder what future generations will think about what we hold dear. I suspect they’ll like these as much as we like Lesney!

[@LaziLowcollectables]

That is possible mate ,generations are different, different taste

[@ericmcginnis9413]

Pretty cool brother! I so want the black polara or Savoy and the dodge truck!

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Thanks, Eric. There is a lot to like in the 2021 MB mainline/Powergrabs collection. I’m guessing each wave will have two or three absolute killers. I’ll do my best to get hold of the whole set and post videos of them. 👍🇦🇺🙂

[@bravo7373]

Loving your enthusiasm while you do this unboxing. It's infectious ! Cos usually you are more reserved in your commentary lol Really like the redesign of the power grabs boxes. Just the cars sans the background. Nice. The tissue paper is an improvement over the plastic bags but it's a shame those silly unsealable flaps remain. Great case.... That savoy definitely is the highlight , it's..just...so...cool , although I'm strangely attracted to the colour scheme of the 350z. The baby blue dodge pickup is also nice, definitely the best version of it so far, for me at least. And it's also good to see the return of the Porsche 914 P.S. Hope your pet kangaroo is doin fine after that nasty scare earlier! Poor lil Skip......

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

So much to get charged up about in this case! But yeah, the boxes are a problem for collectors. Skippy’s in therapy and early indications look promising 😂

[@MetalMania3DTV-TAS-AUS]

Nice box, well worth buying this one, so many cool castings in it, Merry Christmas to you and your family all the best for 2021 Rgds KC Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺😎✌👊👍🇦🇺

[@twycediecast]

Gotta love bringing home a display box as a bonus. I did the same recently. 😀 very strong lineup in this box

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

I’m daring enough to hope that Mattel are working harder on the Matchbox side their business. Would go ape if they bought out a Car Culture style line up.

[@RedRoomDiecast]

There are some nice models in those boxes. Lovely.

[@aleksmith9122]

I Am HERE for the Chow Wagon II it is different from the old one. Why does everyone hate this new one is better than the old one.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

😂😂 The more variations that sneak into my collection, the more I like it.

[@narenderelapavaloresubrama5553]

Hi, Mix B is now in store. Got a few cars from Coles today. Cheers.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Yes! Very nice to see some new stuff in our shops. 👍👍

[@amazingcars1324]

Matchbox Bugatti Divo is a chase piece because they only make so few of it for each Matchbox case.

[@aceadman]

I love that savoy. Finally got some in white. But I need the black one.

[@kaleb_airgunner]

Cool castings mate. Cheers.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Thanks, Boxer. Welcome to the channel 👍🇦🇺

[@vickyamoydiecast2814]

The 1956 jaguar x k roadster is very cool ... classic car

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Such a sweet ride. Lovely colour for 2021 too.

[@terrynasonisasupervillain9017]

I love matchbox cars

[@ericmcginnis9413]

The older porshe 914 you showed is cool!

[@haveanicedave1551]

I enjoy hearing the crunchy noise of that plastic when you rip it open. I wish I could find power grabs.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

It is a satisfying sound! It’s strange that some products are only released in certain places...you’d think Mattel would want to maximise availability of all they make.

[@SteveBrandon]

Toys R' Us Canada has them but often they hide them on an upper shelf above the 1/24 scale Greenlights and Jadas for whatever reason.

[@haveanicedave1551]

@@buildingtheultimatematchbo257 It's probably because the people who do the ordering have no clue what a Power Grab is. Heck, the toy stockers don't even know what a matchbox car is. They look on their phone and point at a playset and ask if that's what I am looking for.

[@haveanicedave1551]

@@SteveBrandon All the Toy's R Us in our area are closed down. That is kind of silly hiding them on the upper shelf.

[@SteveBrandon]

@@haveanicedave1551 I think it's just because the outer box is an inch or two too tall for the lower shelves.

[@noeldiecastchannel6810]

Wouw,,,,mactbox Cool diecast,,

[@FREEDOOOOM]

There are some sweet models I´ll be after. Cool stuff!

[@amazingcars1324]

My favorite from this is Bugatti Divo hands down!!!!

[@ericmcginnis9413]

In showing the jag, I so prefer the disk wheels! Would give anything to get the old wire wheels from the lesney days!!!!

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

I’m with you, Eric...nothing compares to the Lesney castings. 🍻

[@gooserkids8259]

Super cool...great video!

Thanks for watching, Gooser Kids. I appreciate it very much.

Beautiful castings, buddy.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Thank you, sir...and Merry Christmas from Australia 🇦🇺

[@marcelogomes7067]

very cool

[@SteveBrandon]

I keep Matchbox Power Grabs in the box after I open them but I do wish Mattel would put flaps with tabs on the boxes so you could close them neatly again after opening them.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Totally agree.

[@chuygutz5002]

Great video. I like the national parks color scheme. What year did those other 2 come out in?Are they exclusive to Australia? Please let me know. Thanks. Chuy

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Thanks, Chuy Gutz. Mattel release at least a couple of National Parks castings each year. There aren’t Australian exclusives. Check out MatchboxFandom.com for each year’s releases. 👍

[@amazingcars1324]

Matchbox Bugatti Divo is going to be hard to find. Also more hard to find will be new Tesla Roadster.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Yeah, there’s always a few that play hard to get. This video was delayed weeks because I couldn’t find the Savoy. 🕵️‍♂️

Thank you 😊

[@luispinedo8566]

Muy bonita caja👍🇪🇸

[@steverobsondiecast]

I am guessing the paper is pur in the boxes for environmental reasons. It is easy to recycle. As for the cars they are great. The winner for me is the plymouth savoy. It is a bit heavy on the mopar factoring two trucks and cars. That bugatti is my unicorn car but after getting used volvo p1800 in white as part of the christmas present made up for this other one. Some day for the bugatti maybe. They are other greats cars to make up for it. One note about the jeep. They state it as being a 1948 but it is the same casting on the 1943 version. Pulling an audi wagon on us.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Got to keep a close eye on Mattel, for sure. This mix still rates very highly for me all the same. Really good to see so many enjoying this video, it was a lot of fun to make.

Disagree! The Chow Mobile casting is one that I actually collect and I am trying to get caught up on past releases. Thanks for the video.

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

I promise to show more love for the Chow Mobile in the future although there might be another video that I’ve already filmed with one in it.🙄 There seems to be a widespread affection for the little fella.🙂

Hi there! I have just started collecting this series, is it too late to start? I’ve managed to grab 40 of them

[@buildingtheultimatematchbo257]

Hi, Tripper, you’re doing well to have found 40! So far in the 2021 season, there have been 63 cars released. You may be able to catch up with the earlier ones from private sellers online or local Matchbox community groups. Now might be a good time to join one if you haven’t already. I posted a video of the first box of ‘21 on December 26, 2020 so at least you’ll be able to see some of the castings you’re looking for. I’ll post a video of the 4th wave tonight. Happy hunting, my friend. 👍🦘
