Corgi #270 James Bond 007 Aston Martin DB5 Original Working Issue Car w/Box.
A true classic from the late 1960s, this is an early model original working version of Corgi's iconic James Bond Aston Martin DB5, complete with its famous operational gadgets straight from the 1964 film Goldfinger.
Note: The original listing for this item has been updated as the box was found and is now included. Also updated, the figure does not come out of the ejector seat as apparently it has been glued in.
The silver-bodied diecast features a detailed interior, and the signature spy-car details that made this one of Corgi's most sought-after models. In this example, the front machine guns pop out as designed, the ejector seat mechanism through the roof still functions, and the rear bullet-proof shield rises and lowers smoothly when the exhaust pipes are pressed.
Condition Details: Used in very good overall condition with light play wear consistent with its age. The body shows minor marks and light scratches but displays very nicely; chrome trim and details remain mostly bright. All working features test correctly (except the ejector seat figure as noted above): front machine guns, ejector seat, and rear bullet-proof shield operate as intended. The original box is included in good overall condition, but no instructions, tire slashers, or other accessories are included.See photos for condition details and what is included.
