C497

Notes

Issued between 1966-69, this Oldsmobile car has a gleaming, deep purple-blue finish, bright and complete bonnet logo, bright chrome parts, detailed cast wheels. If you press the roof periscope the figure moves from side to side to shoot the enemy! A few insignificant dots to the paint finish if you really want to fault it. This is the more difficult to find version with plastic chromed spotlights (to dazzle the enemy!). An outstanding display item, especially with such a notably clean, fresh and bright bonnet label:

Please note that there is merely some light reflection on the wing edge visible in the photo and not a chip!

So often lost or replaced with a copy, this Thrushbuster comes with its original Waverley ring. Changing image on the ring face of Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin.
Small rub to the ring sides caused by box contact.
The colourful card plinth is fresh and bright, with very minor wear at a couple of wheel slots.
Lovely vibrant graphics! Correct that this version has the monochrome card plinth on which the car sits.

Comes complete with the colourful circular card packing piece along with the plain circular card ring.
Lots of info about the U.N.C.L.E organisation on box reverse as well as pictures and signatures of the T.V. series protagonists.

The outer box is bright and complete, with a crisp feel to the card.

Minor age/handling wear only, including a few little rust spots. Includes the original card wrap-around packing piece too. Corgi Club Membership Form is included.
