Notes
This Gerry Anderson model inspired by the t.v. series ‘Captain Scarlet & The Mysterons’ is in all original condition.
This early version has a fine metallic blue finish, complete with original figure of Captain Scarlet and firing front rocket. Complete transfers and paper labels (minor age wear to some). Perfect black rubber tracks and aerials. Detailed cast wheels.
2nd issue with white plastic cover on the door release mechanism on the roof and the ‘simpler’ seat operation with Captain Scarlet figure.
Little scuff to the paint finish on the top of the opening door (which does gape a little) Couple of small areas of rough casting and the occasional tiny mark.
Brightly-coloured pictorial inner card plinth. Vivid graphics, although there is a small scuff/tear to the top section and some wear at wheel slots principally.
Instruction Leaflet, packing ring and small piece of packing foam are present too.
With missile.
Large pictorial outer box (more appropriate for early issues) is clean and brightly coloured. End flap tear. No graffiti. Very minor age wear.
