Notes
Issued between 1968-75, this example is the first issue with painted red stripes.
This MSV model was inspired by The Captain Scarlet T.V. series.
It is in very fine, all original condition with a crisp white finish, unmarked painted red stripes, intact silver and black strip (a little surface marking), original aerial, and radioactive crate with lift-off lid. Captain Scarlet transfers have a little edge nick. Red interior with drop-down ramps. Shiny cast wheels. Well-shaped original tyres. Red base.
Occasional small edge chip. A little original glue at silver strip edges may be possible to carefully clean off.
Card picture box is complete and bright, if a touch grubby in places now. Little storage scuff on one picture face and light wear. Original card packing piece is included.
