Notes
Issued between 1966-69, this Oldsmobile car has a gleaming, deep purple-blue finish, complete bonnet logo (fresh and bright), bright chrome parts, detailed cast wheels. Fine original tyres. If you press the roof periscope the figure moves from side to side to shoot the enemy. Gleaming roof button. This is the version with plastic chromed spotlights (to dazzle the enemy!).
In very near mint condition.
Often lost or even replaced with a copy, this Thrushbuster comes with its original Waverley ring. Changing image on the ring face of Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin.
The bright and complete card plinth (version with red section on base) has light wear only.
Lots of info about the U.N.C.L.E organisation on box reverse as well as pictures and signatures of the T.V. series protagonists.
The outer box is complete, clean and bright. Light wear only.
With both card packing rings and wrap-around card piece. Corgi Club Membership Form.
