C270
Corgi 270 James Bond Aston Martin. Very near mint/boxed. Rarest box version. From 'The Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
The hardest to find box version of this popular James Bond Aston Martin. Issued during 1973 only in this slim blue and yellow window box.
This James Bond DB5 has a silky metallic silver finish, fully-functioning. Ejector seat mechanism (functions properly), revolving number plates, retractable machine guns, tyre slasher blades, telescopic over-riders – this car is literally loaded with features!
The silver paint finish is all original and in virtually mint condition. Note the bright gold radiator. Rear bullet screen. Detailed spoked wheels with slasher blades. Suspension is fine on all wheels.
Note the original thicker paint drop that has collected near the driver’s door handle and a small faint casting mark nearby. Faint casting mark on the other door too. As-made.
The (later issue) Instruction Packet has been carefully opened and inside, there are the Secret Instructions, badge, part-used sheet of number plates, additional spare villain.
All original!
The scarce blue and yellow window box is complete, vividly-coloured, with an intact original cellophane ‘window’. Tiny corner crumple and a period price at an end flap.
