A working prototype with moving aerials, functioning roof button which releases the seated figure of Captain Scarlet and operational missile firing mechanism. Rear half-tracks are able to be raised and lowered. Little wear to one of the tracks. However, we do not recommend moving any of these moving parts.
A piece of Dinky history, a wonderful investment piece and a truly exciting item! This prototype was given to Mike Richardson on a visit to the Dinky factory shortly before its closure in 1979.
