Vintage Airfix Wildlife Series ROBINS BIRDS - No. 4830 Sealed kit 

Rare SALESMANS SAMPLE. 

I acquired this kit along with the Blue Tits and Bullfinches kits all marked on the back: "Sample - S Moss - Airfix Rep". (all three kits are for sale separately - see photo attached - Please message if you want all three) 

This has providence as I bought a number of toys for my collection in the mid 1990's from an elderly person whose parents previously owned a toy shop in Bedfordshire. I think this is an early 1977 issue kit, by guess is it was probably given to the shop for appraisal by the rep at the launch of the quite different Wildlife series created by Airfix. 

* Please note if you are overseas buyer, please check if VAT and/or duty is payable when you import into your country. I can’t control this but it could add considerably to your purchase price.  Main Postage rate is for UK mainland only. 

** Please wait for an invoice if you buy from outside the UK so I can correctly calculate the postage (Hopefully to save you cost) once I know where you are. 

As a professional Toy Designer I have collected a personal private collection of toys, things I particularly liked, over 40 years. The collection is now slowly being listed for sale as I have a clear out and empty my loft ahead of a future house move. 

Many items have never been opened and are in original packing, many have been on display in my home but are mint. Most have been dry-stored out of light and many are mint and boxed or with very superficial marking from original shelf storage from the toy stores I bought them from. I know serious collectors like the highest quality, and details matter, so I have taken many close up photos of each item I list. Please look carefully before you purchase and make sure you are happy with condition. Any serious specific damage like folds or label removal damage etc will always be noted in each listing.

Collectors know that even 'as new' unopened boxes and blister cards may have very minor wear on corners, edges and a few small surface marks or dints from their removal from original outer case packaging, and from being placed 'on shelf' in the stores from which they were originally bought. Blister carded figures for example often had slight distortion of the backing cards from new.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any queries or questions about any item, I can always take more photos to show you a specific area if you are unsure and I encourage buyers and take a look at items over a cuppa where possible.  My items are top notch and described to the best of my ability, but if you’re at all unsure please just don't buy. I really want to avoid protracted discussions about condition after a purchase. 

I have many other toy items in my collection to sell from ' Model Kits', 'Construction sets',  'Action figures', ‘Dolls’ and many many ‘Die cast’ cars in varying condition from ‘well played with’ to ‘Mint’.

Thanks for looking.
