GENERAL INFO
One of the two models to be released in four different major types, the 46B also has eight distinct variations. The sole B box, a B5 sub-type, has the NEW MODEL on end flaps and shows the red model with yellow wheels. This same box would then be used for the first C box, before another one would be made that shows the numbers away from the scroll and model.
D1 and D2 box were then made, showing the green variation with 3-line text and gray wheels. The D2 box has three different top/bottom color combinations.
The E3 box shows a similar model but with black wheels.
All boxes are size 3.
RARITY
The E3 box is by far the rarest of the boxes for the 46B. It is also the second rarest E box behind the 34B.
