Blaze Buster was one of a long line of Matchbox Fire Engines and given that it was released in the mid-seventies it is follows the trend of Matchbox cars and trucks of the time of not being a model of a real truck, rather a made-up one. It was released in 1975 and up to 1980 was bright red with mainly a plated interior and an unpainted base. The ladder was either yellow, black or white. during this time some also had black or dark grey bases. From 1980 to 1982 the colour was dark red with a white interior and a black or grey base. In 1983 the colour became light red with a black base and a dark yellow ladder, some of these last models do not have the 'FIRE' labels and have a number 32 label instead.
