Notes
What an impressive Dinky military set! This military piece has an original matt military green finish, bright metal parts including the winding handle, with a complete and intact missile (and that includes the rubber nose), although some wear to the transfers on the missile, as well as rubbing to the white finish on the missile body.
There are a couple of chips to the paint beneath the launching mechanism (so not immediately visible). Small scuff to the winding handle. This is the second issue with plastic (as opposed to metal) cogs in the mechanism which raise and lower the missile well.
Missile Launching Pad is in fine condition with the near-inevitable marks at the tow ring.
The striped Supertoys box is complete, clean and bright with minimal wear, no splits or graffiti.
Remains of old sellotape at the sides. Small rubbed area at one end of the lid (very minor).
Inside the box, you will find the bright and clean yellow packing piece in which the models sit, as well as the often missing top packing piece and Dinky Inspection Tag.
