Notes
A beautiful example in very, very close to mint condition. The detailed roof transfer is complete and perfect, the car’s gadgets function well, the radiator notably closes securely. Cast wheel version.
Note too that suspension is fine save for one rear wheel (unsurprising since it is by depressing the rear wheels that the scanners are fired from the boot).
It comes complete with the *original Secret Instruction packet which is sealed shut. We expect there to be the Instructions, four radar scanners and four missiles inside.
The inner card stand is really very nice indeed with such vibrant colours on clean, crisp card. The atmospheric artwork is a delight! As-new look and feel. Tiniest wear only.
The outer box is the rarer version with the same picture on both faces.
If you have been looking for an extremely fresh and bright example, this box fits the bill! A superlative example, with just a couple of light grubby marks. Complete with the greaseproof strip which can be placed over the roof, so protecting the delicate transfer.
Gives the appearance of unsold shop stock.
