Notes
This sought-after James Bond Aston Martin model is in complete and totally original condition, and always the most sought-after in this eye-catching box presentation.
The silver Aston Martin has the opening roof feature with the ejector seat mechanism working perfectly. Both figures of James Bond and villain are still seated inside. It has the rear bullet screen which can be raised and lowered, telescopic over-riders, retractable machine guns, revolving number plates and of course the red tyre slasher blades on the rear wheels. All the features function perfectly and the suspension is fine on detailed spoked wheels.
If one is looking to fault it, one could say that the roof gapes slightly when closed and there is a rather ‘speckled’ finish to the silver over-riders. None of the expected marks at exposed edges or on the roof.
The ‘winged box’ is in superb condition too! These elaborate boxes so easily get torn or crumpled. This one has fared better than most, since it has been carefully stored and has barely been handled. The clear ‘blister’ is undamaged with none of the usual separation from the card at the front and no ruffling or tearing at this site either.
Colours are vivid and the card is crisp.
Minor wear to the top edge of the card. No graffiti and the unpunched header card is fine and crisp with vivid graphics which have lost none of their vibrancy.The removeable card plinth is outstandingly crisp and fresh:
None better!
Inside, we have the beautifully clean and crisp all-important Secret Instruction Packet!
Inside, are the full complement of items i.e. the Secret Instructions, the number plates on a backing sheet (some have already been applied) the badge and a spare villain. All original!
An absolutely authentic premium piece for your collection and a wonderful investment item.
