Notes
Usually found in the standard boxes with built in header cards, this item is in unused authentic condition -still firmly attached to its orange and yellow card insert by means of the two original plastic clips. A bright and fresh example, this model comes complete with a full sprue of rockets. The outer box is fresh, crisp and bright as indeed is the number specific colour header card. Light wear. Original cellophane is smooth and puncture-free.
Note that this version has multi-lingual print immediately below the header card ‘Not suitable for children under 36 months’.
A scarce later issue model – especially difficult to find in this condition.
