Notes
A stash of late issue Corgi models has come into stock. This is a carefully assembled collection with many scarce later items included. Some are unlisted versions very little has been catalogued during this period (1981-86). This is an opportunity to acquire scarce late examples, from the Corgi factory, just before its demise. Typically very small production runs during this late period and some specially commisioned runs that were promotional and never sold in shops.
This Metro model has a 281 (factory?) sticker on the base, although presented in a late issue factory stamped 605 Mini Metro box. The model has a couple of minor box rubs, but obviously unused.
The box looks virtually shop-fresh with intact cellophane and only the most minor handling wear.
