Notes
An obviously unused example in very close to pristine condition, complete and authentic throughout. Original light military green finish (so included in some military Dinky collections), including the panelled roof, a white interior, and a pale green base. Perfect fresh ‘SHADO 2’ labels on both sides. Bright silver firing mechanism. Intact black tracks (minor ‘stickiness’ due to prolonged contact with the polystyrene inner) on these small green rollers (scarce). Inspired by the Gerry Anderson UFO t.v. series, this model has a flip over roof mechanism which reveals a formidable rocket just waiting to be fired! (Spare included too).
The window box is very fresh, clean and bright, looking close to as-new. Clean polystyrene packing. Intact original cellophane window.
