Notes
Just a few of these 2nd issue models were exported to France in the card box, with additional Instruction Leaflet.
In the UK, this version would appear in the later bubble pack presentation.
Inspired by the Gerry Anderson Thunderbirds T.V. series from the ’60’s. This Fab 1 model is finished in non-fluorescent pink, with a clear sliding roof, with a *silver-painted base and rare wheel type.
Gold interior and both original seated figures of Lady Penelope and Parker. It comes complete with an intact bonnet emblem, jewelled headlights and complete front & rear number plates.
The Fab 1 has the occasional negligible mark. Presents very well indeed.
The sliding roof moves well. The car comes complete with a firing rocket and four rear harpoons still in the unopened clear plastic packet and stapled to the card inner.
The colourful card stand is bright, clean and complete. Light wear and a couple of small edge scuffs.
Instruction Slip (in French) included:
The pictorial card box is clean and brightly-coloured. Small handling scuff and a tear to the vulnerable tuck-in area of the large end flaps.
One of the most sought-after Gerry Anderson inspired Dinky models!
