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 beautiful example in virtually mint, all original condition. Shaped spun wheel issue. Beautiful delicate roof logo is intact. Note that the radiator closes securely (often these models are found with the radiator gaping slightly even when closed). Note too that suspension is present on all four wheels (stronger at the front as you might expect, since it is by depressing the rear wheels that the scanners are fired from the boot).
The car’s gadgets i.e. front missile and the radar scanner function well.
This example comes with the the Instructions, three radar scanners and four missiles.
The very attractive inner card stand has lots of atmospheric graphics. It is in close to shop-fresh condition (very small wheel slot tear); absolutely crisp, bright and clean.
The outer box is crisp, clean and colourful with only the most minor age wear.
