Notes
French Dinky military models always impress and this Char AMX model with a straight gun, swivelling turret, and intact supple tracks is no exception.
This particular early version has an original matt military finish and 80C stamped on the baseplate (minor tarnishing in one area, shiny metal parts otherwise).
In close to mint condition with just a couple of little marks. Correct that this early version does not have an aerial.
Issued 1958-59. 1:55 scale.
The pictorial box is complete and crisp with strong brightly colourMinor age wear and a couple of small storage punctures.
