C406
Corgi 406 Mercedes-Benz Unimog 406 with Canopy. Mint/boxed. Early issue. Opened for the 1st time to take these pictures. From a large, stunning diverse collection with many items in old shop stock condition.
Notes
Issued between 1971-75, this is the early version with all those features, missing from the later issues: i.e. coiled spring suspension, wheels with rubber tyres, and jewelled headlights.
Early box too!
This chunky truck is in mint condition with a fresh bright red and yellow finish, red interior. Intact wing mirrors with reflective pieces still in place, and a plastic, olive green, detachable canopy, grey plastic tow hook.
The box is superb – very bright, clean and intensely crisp with strong vivid colours. One set of end flaps carefully prised opened to release the model, the other end has never been opened. Corgi Club Membership Form is included. Intact original cellophane.
None better!
