Notes

Stored away for decades, this Gift Set is part of a startling old shop stock find. Many items have never been opened until now, with some outer boxes in a close to pristine state and others showing some signs of storage wear.

A scarce version and the first we have ever seen with this particular combination i.e. orange skis, deep blue cockpit window, deep orange cockpit interior, orange (not chrome) trim and a gold-coloured jet engine. Model is finished in metallic green and comes complete with the white and orange firing rocket.
Bright and complete ‘SHADO’ labels on both sides.

Note the chip at one side toward the rear and a slight bend in the tail fin (as-made). Occasional little mark besides.
Not often found in the bubble-pack style box – especially one with an intact, original bubble top (and not not a later copy which are so often seen nowadays and easily recognisable since they are thicker, and too short).
Slight age discolouration but no splits or parts missing.
Card base is close to pristine.
