Notes
First issue from 1968.
This sought-after James Bond Aston Martin model is in totally original condition. The silver Aston Martin with gold bumpers has the opening roof feature with the ejector seat mechanism working well. Both figures of James Bond and villain are still seated inside. It has the rear bullet screen which can be raised and lowered, telescopic over-riders, retractable machine guns, revolving number plates and of course the red tyre slasher blades on the rear wheels. Original tyres look as-new. The suspension is fine on detailed spoked wheels.
Paint finish is very close to mint (few dots).
Slightly larger than the 261 James Bond Aston Martin, this model is presented in the most attractive, 1st issue ‘winged box’.
These elaborate boxes so easily get torn or crumpled. This one has a couple of repaired tears where the ‘blister’ attaches to the card. Small area of card separation to the card rim. The header card is fine and crisp with vivid graphics which have lost none of their vibrancy.
Inside, are the* Secret Instructions, the number plates, the badge and a spare villain. All original*!
A most attractive, iconic James Bond item.
