Notes
What a fine example of this impressive Dinky military set! This is a very close to mint example with a complete and intact missile (and that includes the rubber nose).
Obviously this set has spent most of its fifty or so years in its box. In very close – virtually mint condition( paint loss at the tow ring, and a few tiny marks to the missile).
This is the more difficult to source early issue with metal (as opposed to plastic) cogs in the mechanism which raise and lower the missile.
Missile Launching Pad has all delicate parts intact.
The striped Supertoys box is close to mint with bright fresh colours on largely unrubbed clean card.
Small area of surface loss at a lid side ( due to the removal of old tape which kept the lid closed).
Inside the box, you will find the bright yellow packing piece in which the models sit (666 embossed):
Dinky Inspection Tag still inside the box and the very small thick rubber band packing piece.
Very rare to find this complete.
An impressive set – a real delight for military and Dinky enthusiasts alike.
