Notes
In authentic, completely unused condition, this is an exciting model inspired by the popular 1970’s T.V. series ‘Space 1999’.
This particular early issue example is finished in metallic green, white and red, with red plastic thrusters. Red windows. Untarnished metal parts throughout. Central metal section beneath the white fretwork has a matt finish.
Virtually mint and obviously unused state. Gives the impression of old shop stock.
Colourful card and cellophane window box with header card has strong colours and an unpunched header card. Some storage crumpling and a handling tear to an end flap.
Bright yellow card plinth. Wear to the circular cut-out sections caused by model movement.
No decal sheet with this example.
