1975 Matchbox Big Bull Dump Truck – Lesney No. 12 UK Casting

This die-cast model is the Matchbox No. 12 Big Bull, manufactured in England by Lesney Products & Co Ltd in 1975. It features a green-painted body mounted on a black plastic base, with oversized rear wheels and smaller front wheels in orange. The underside is embossed with the model name “Big Bull,” the series number, and copyright details. Designed as a heavy-duty dump truck, this model was part of the transitional era between Lesney’s classic Matchbox Series and its move into more stylized utility vehicles during the mid-1970s.

Released in 1975, the Big Bull was among Lesney’s efforts to diversify the Matchbox lineup with construction and industrial themes. Made in the UK during the brand’s final years before production shifted overseas, this model embodies Lesney’s hallmark durability and no-frills, functional design approach aimed at the play-focused market of the era.
