Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
Sold
Very, very rare motorized early issue; please note the high-gloss box art and early Tamiya-Mokei logo. The box displays better than my 'good+' grade. It has excellent gloss, some creases, no tears and no price tags, but it is graded as such because there is old packing tape on the left side and top long side. Highly detailed for that time and designed for motorized operation. Hardware includes a steel and brass gear box, brass drive shafts, other metal drive gears, all wires, battery contacts, reversing switch and more. As usual, the motor is not included but it calls for a TKK Mabuchi 25. Inside, the kit is as it left the factory. It has never been started. All the parts that were factory sealed are still sealed and the correct color headers on the bags are excellent. The small motorizing parts and glue are bagged with a header; the all-metal gear box is bright as new, packed with a tiny tube of grease and sealed with a header as well. The the two hull parts and treads were never factory sealed; and they are all excellent. Amazingly, the treads are unbroken, supple and 100% intact! The instructions are 'near mint' and the decals are as well (they are still bag sealed.)
