GENERAL INFO

The 4A Tractor A box and B1 box are very similar but, unlike 1A or 2A, is a bit different. The B box has a lighter background and the opening in the front portion of the tractor seems a bit wider. Model numbers are quite similar. The B box comes in size 2 while the first one is in size 1.

The A box, of course, has the “MOKO”, whereas the B box has it in block letters.

 

RARITY

The A box is, of course more sought after than its B type counterpart. It is rarer and should require a small premium, like all A type boxes.
