Bubble Copter

 A new Matchbox helicopter.
They call it a Bubble Copter.
I don't know what actual helicopter it is supposed to represent if any.
It is very close to HO scale.
It is about the same scale as the Hot Wheels Batcopter and the Corgi Sioux.
It is very well done, decals are excellent.
Color scheme is great.
I got four of them.
A similar helicopter was used by Pussy Galore in the movie Goldfinger.  I plan on using this figure as Pussy Galore and this helicopter will have a large silver box on the side which will have the atomic bomb Goldfinger wanted to use to irradiate the gold in Fort Knox.

engine and canopy shape look like an old French Aerospatiale gazelle - a cool little helicopter that's been around for a while, and one of the first to be mounted with AT wire-guided missiles, back in the 1950s

It does, I have done some research trying to figure out what it is, Matchbox usually, but not always, do their aircraft based on real helicopters.
Thanks for reading Banzai55.
