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. Handling this pristine box very delicately, we can tell that this model has never been removed from the box – the underside of the box where the slot for opening is situated, is firmly closed and even with the gentlest of pressure remains so. Clearly and obviously never prised open.
Mint/boxed, factory-fresh piece.
If one is looking to fault it, one could note that the reverse of the box does not have the push-out piece in place now.
The silver Aston Martin has the opening roof feature with the ejector seat mechanism. 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.
The ‘winged box’ is an outstanding example. These elaborate boxes so easily get torn or crumpled. Note that 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 astonishingly vivid and the card is extremely crisp.
An authentic premium piece for your collection and a wonderful investment item.
