The packaging box of the present disclosure serves a dual purpose, firstly for packaging the toy car and secondly, the packaging box serves as an accessory for the toy car. The packaging box comprises a container element and a lid element, each comprising at least one upright longitudinal sidewall and at least one lateral foldable sidewall, wherein the longitudinal sidewall and the foldable sidewall of the container element and the lid element engage with each other defining a track, which can be employed for displacing the toy car thereon. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A packaging box for a toy car, said packaging box comprising: a container element configured to contain said toy car, said container element having a base; at least one upright longitudinal sidewall extending from at least one longitudinal side of said base; and at least one lateral foldable sidewall extending from at least one lateral side of said base; wherein in a folded configuration of said at least one lateral foldable sidewall, said container element defines a box-like structure for containing said toy car; a lid element configured to be assembled with said container element to define said packaging box, said lid element having a top; at least one upright longitudinal sidewall extending from at least one longitudinal side of said top; and at least one lateral foldable sidewall extending from at least one lateral side of said top; characterized in that, said at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said container element and said at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said lid element, each in an unfolded configuration thereof are engageable with each other to define a track for said toy car to be displaced thereon. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The packaging box as claimed in claim 1, wherein said container element is further configured to contain a car launcher. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The packaging box as claimed in claim 2, wherein said at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said container element has an aperture configured for facilitating placement of at least a portion of said car launcher, in a folded configuration of said at least one lateral foldable sidewall. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The packaging box as claimed in claim 1, wherein said at least one upright longitudinal sidewall has a first pair of foldable extensions configured to facilitate the folding and unfolding of the at least one lateral foldable sidewall. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The packaging box as claimed in claim 4, wherein said at least one upright longitudinal sidewall and said first pair of foldable extensions, the base of the container and said at least one lateral foldable sidewall are connected by means of live hinges. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The packaging box as claimed in claim 5, wherein the assembly of said first pair of foldable extensions and said at least one upright longitudinal sidewall of said container element are facilitated by complementary engagement formations formed on said first pair of foldable extensions and said at least one upright longitudinal sidewall of said container element. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The packaging box as claimed in claim 6, wherein a fitment between said complementary engagement formations is facilitated via magnetic connection. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The packaging box as claimed in claim 1, wherein said lid element can have a transparent portion for facilitating viewing of said toy car within said packaging box. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The packaging box as claimed in claim 1, wherein said at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said container element and at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said lid element are configured to connect together by means of complementary engaging formations configured thereon, when said at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said container element and at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said lid element is in an unfolded configuration, thereby defining said track for said toy car to be displaced upon. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The packaging box as claimed in claim 9, wherein a fitment between said complementary engagement formations may be facilitated via magnetic connection. ### Claim 11 (depends on 1) The packaging box as claimed in claim 1, wherein said at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said container element and said lid element are configured to connect together by means of complementary engaging formations configured thereon, when said at least one lateral foldable sidewall of said container element and said lid element are in a folded configuration, thereby defining said packaging box. ### Claim 12 (depends on 11) The packaging box as claimed in claim 11, wherein a fitment between said complementary engagement formations is facilitated via magnetic connection.
