Close to shop-fresh, it is only upon careful scrutiny that a couple of small factory paint irregularities may be seen.
The tank is presented in the later issue pictorial scene box with lift-off lid (later still an end flap box would be used).

Minor wear only (a litle rubbing at edges). Notably, the card packing piece is still present. Shiny staples.
A welcome addition to any Dinky military collection.
