GENERAL INFO
Even thought 44C has only 2 major variations, a total of 7 different boxes can be found for this model. First released in a E4 box with “NEW MODEL” on end flaps, the box shows the pro-production model in green cab, grey container and white container door and front bumper.
An E4 box without the “NEW MODEL” was then released, soon replaced with one with “®”.
The F boxes show the common model with red cab and turquoise container. The ALP box has two different end flap closers configurations: one with “TM” and “PO” and the other one with only “PO”. This same end flap closer configuration was also released with the “MIR1” bottom lettering variation, before a final version with “MIR1” was released with blank end flap closers.
RARITY
The F box is a bit scarcer than the E boxes. But it is not considered a rare or desirable box.
