Notes
A fine example of this James Bond-related item, inspired by the film ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’, first issued during 1977 (box is dated 1977 on the underside).
In unused, virtually mint condition – the model is still firmly affixed to the card insert.
The ‘film strip’ header card box is bright and complete. A little storage/age wear including the usual light crease on box reverse where the header card joins the main body of the box.
For extra interest, this particular box has the ‘Hammer & Sickle’ logo on the box just about visible on the red ‘0’ of 007on the header card and end flaps.
‘New’ tag on box , later issues did not have this either.
No tears to the original cellophane front. Tiny start of a tear at the tuck-in part of one end flap.
Comes with a complete sprue of 10 missiles.
