Don't be misled by the pink girly box. Look closely at the box art, you'll see a G1 Optimus Prime with box. It's a miniature of course and it is part of the Takara Toy History Collection. It came in blind boxes (means you'll never know what you're gonna get until you open it). I saw this miniature G1 Convoy in a box many years ago on eBay and it was quite pricey then. I was looking for it for years but it turns out that this toy is pretty hard to find. Till recently I got it from a local toy shop, and yes it is pretty expensive locally too. Check out the box art.

Here's what you get inside. G1 Convoy truck in box and Convoy. These toys are non-transformable. A replica catalog, a replica miniature sticker sheet, a replica miniature Japanese newspaper of that time when Convoy was introduced and a Happy Bathtime pack (maybe some kind of soap, not really sure)

Check out this amazing Convoy and truck miniature!

Interestingly, the cab can be separated from the trailer.

Here's a AA size battery for size comparison.

Despite it's tiny size, you can see how detail Convoy is.

This toy is quite rare in the market making it pricey in the secondary market. It's a nice little toy to have in a collection.
