Notes
Looking like old shop stock, this is a sought after set, first issued during 1976. Opened just a couple of times ever, this set is as bright and fresh as the day it was made.
The exciting trio comprises:
Removed from the box carefully but still on the card/polystyrene plinth for these images.
1) Corgi 267 Batmobile. Whizzwheel version is complete with Batman and Robin figures, chain cutter, rocket launcher, gold tow hook, original aerial. Bright bat logos, intact pale blue tinted screens. Virtually mint with intact suspension.
2) Corgi 925 Batcopter has a bright gloss black finish and complete, vivid Batman transfers. Note there is a little edge furling to a couple of the transfers. Virtually mint.
3) Corgi Batboat on Trailer has an intact chrome dashboard. This is the harder to find version with Rally Whizzwheels. Very bright, clean and fresh with colourful Bat logos.
Virtually mint.
Intact card plinth and polystyrene inner. Sprue of missiles .
The large and colourful header card box impresses with fresh bright colours. Clean and crisp.
Original cellophane is notably intact too. Nice to see the header card section does not have a crease on the reverse!
Old shop stock quality throughout.
