    Matchbox Cars! Or Hot Wheels. But I’m guessing Matchbox Cars.

    I’ll guess Tonka trucks.

    Is that your final answer?

    Matchbox is correct. Nicely guessed.

  4. James Callan

    Also a good guess, and one I hadn’t thought of when putting together the question. But Mehal takes it with Matchbox.
