Notes
Inspired by the Gerry Anderson Thunderbirds T.V. series from the ’60’s. This Fab 1 model is finished in *non-fluorescent pink, with pink stripes on the sliding roof. Version with small circular detail on the wheels and a more protruding central section.
Gold interior and both original seated figures of Lady Penelope and Parker. It comes complete with an intact bonnet emblem, jewelled headlights and complete front & rear number plates.
The Fab 1 has the occasional tiny mark. Presents very well indeed. Few little marks to the paint.
The sliding roof with pink strip detail moves back and forth, although somehwhat reluctantly. The car comes complete with a firing rocket and four rear harpoons still in the (opened) clear plastic packet which is still attached ot the inner by means of the original staple.
The colourful card stand is bright, clean and complete. A few very small wheel slot tears and a few light scuffs.
The pictorial card box is clean, fresh and brightly-coloured. Note that one end flap has been carefully re-attached.
One of the most sought-after Gerry Anderson inspired Dinky models!
