Matchbox Sky Busters Northrop Grumman B-2

I worked on the B-2 Program for many years. 
Tons of B-2 stuff to collect, but I stick mostly to flats: stickers, postcards, magazine ads and covers, promos, etc..

One non-flat I've collected is the Matchbox Sky Busters B-2 Bomber.
I have all but one.

2008 MBX Metal N7599-0910
National Guard

2010 Matchbox Sky Busters NORTHROP GRUMMAN B-2 (Nation Guard) blue grey bomber plane
I NEED THE ABOVE VERSION


2009 R0676
Desert Camo


2010 Sky Busters Missions V0232
Green 78

I don't know if there is a 2011 issue.
I've never seen one.


2012 Sky Busters Headquarters W5353-0910
Gold Copper Swirl

I haven't seen an issue after 2012 so I think 2012 was the last, or latest, one.

Makes for a cool little set.
Hung in a row on a wall it looks pretty neat too.

  1. I've always loved planes like that- so unique. I've never seen one in person, unfortunately. (considering I live just across the river from a military airport, I keep hoping). Matchbox discontinued the plane line after 2012, I believe.

  2. You worked on the B-2 as well?! I used to work on the radar system at Hughes back in the 80s!

    (and it's been over 4 years since we traded http://angelsinorder.blogspot.com/2011/03/trade-mail-from-rhubarb.html )
