GENERAL INFO
Released a year after the first four King Size, the K5 Foden Truck was only released in C2 sub-type box. The drawing shows the mode totally in red, except for the silver front grille and bumper. The tires are black.
The D box is quite nice, with a shiny yellow model and superb metal hubs, mounted on black tires.
The E1 box has a neat background on a construction side with another Foden Truck apparently dumping something, as we can see it from behind.
112 X 53 X 55 is the only size available, made for each of the three types.
RARITY
The E box is harder to find. Others C2 box is not particularly hard to find and the D box is the most common.
