Notes
One of the sought-after Batman Gift Sets, this version (copyright 1976) is presented in the colourful header-card window box.
The set comprises:
1) Batmobile – fixed gold tow hook version and both seated figures of Batman and Robin. Bright and original gloss finish, fully functioning and complete with aerial, intact very pale blue screens. Bright bat labels. Suspension is fine on all four shiny wheels. Looks as-new! Just a few negligible dots.
2) Batboat is the correct later version with plastic fin. Intact blue screens and bright chrome cockpit. Very bright paper labels including the bat labels on the fin. Gold trailer has Rally-style Whizzwheels. Mint condition item.
Included – Full sprue of original red missiles.
Both items are housed in the original and intact polystyrene inner which is clean and intact.
Crisp, colourful and complete outer box has larger print ‘For ages 3 years & over’. Split to the original cellophane. Very minor age/handling wear besides (light crease on box reverse where header card joins the main body of the box and faint scribble).
Operating Instructions on this late issue were printed on the underside of the outer box.
