Corgi 268
Corgi 268 The Green Hornet's 'Black Beauty'. Near mint plus/boxed, with packing. Spun wheel issue. Functioning gadgets. With Instructions in Packet, scanners and missiles.
Notes
An exciting iconic T.V inspired Corgi model – typically harder to find than the James Bond models available during this period. Issued between 1968-72. This is a close to mint, all original example. Beautiful delicate roof logo is intact. Note that the radiator can close but does tend to gape occasionally too. Suspension is present on the front wheels only. Presents well with a glossy finish and as-new original tyres.
The all-important detailed roof transfer is complete and perfect.
Re the car’s gadgets i.e. front missile functions well. The boot opens when the lever is moved and the spinner flies off, as expected!
Little mark around the radiator catch, and a couple of chrome flecks.
This example comes with the Secret Instruction Packet which has been opened. Inside, are the Instructions, three four scanners and four missiles. So the full complement.
The very attractive inner card stand has lots of atmospheric graphics. It is crisp, bright and clean – just a couple of small wheel slot tears.
The outer box is crisp, clean and colourful.
