Dinky 666 Missile Erecting Vehicle with Corporal Missile & Launching Platform. Very near mint/boxed. Fully functioning plastic cog version. Complete with Instruction leaflet and packing pieces. From The Heart of England Collection.
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). This is the second issue with plastic (as opposed to metal) cogs in the mechanism which raise and lower the missile well.
A splendid display piece!
Occasional very minor mark only (hard to find this good!).
Missile Launching Pad is in fine condition with just the near-inevitable paint loss at the tow ring.
The striped Supertoys box is complete, clean and bright with minimal wear, no splits or graffiti. Looks very fresh and clean. Little storage scuffs at an end flap. Often these military pieces are found with a Dinky red colour spot at a lid end ( not immediately obvious why).
Inside the box, you will find the bright and clean yellow packing piece in which the models sit (no tears), as well as the often missing top packing piece (small tear).
Bright clean and complete Instruction Leaflet is included, too.
A very fine set, well-suited to become the centre piece of a military display.
