Corgi 649
Corgi 649 Space Shuttle. Very, very near mint/boxed. From The Old School Collection.
Notes
Inspired by the James Bond film “Moonraker”, this item was made between 1979-82.
A two piece set, it contains a white Space Shuttle and a separate satellite. Both sit within a large pictorial card stand which slides into the header card window box. Colourful, bright and crisp. Couple of mere dots to the paint finish (probably as-made). Complete bright labels throughout. Banded to the plinth now (originally plastic clips would have secured it in place).
The close to shop-fresh window box has original cellophane (small split) and vivid colours. Light crease at header card reverse.
Minor wear besides.
