Yep! If you get one, you've got them all. I have two of the Matchbox Spits: A Mk II, blue/green, blue spinner, letters DU - R, and Mk I, brown/green, yellow spinner, letters QV - K.

Like them both so I feel Spitfire fulfilled.

Re: Matchbox History/Checklist

Is there a difference between the planes issued in the U.S. and Canada? I have seen it mentioned by sellers.

Re: Matchbox History/Checklist

The re-releases of the "Canadian" planes were in the heat-sealed packaging. A lot of the regular packaging (same as series 1-3) was made available on the US market, so odds of finding them are still good.

The Canadian re-releases of Bf-109 and Fw-190 were found in Tuesday Morning of all places.

I have also seen them in WinCo which is a food store here in Northern Calif in the toy area.
Right now all they have left is Gentile P-51D and a Hellcat.
