Very scarce vintage 60s space age tin toy. To quote some information I found online "It seems to be similar to another better known toy called Vertibird. The set is battery operated and mainly made of tinplate with a plastic boat, space capsule (probably based on Gemini) and three plastic crew members. Like Vertibird, the idea is to fly the helicopter round and round, then try to hover and pick up the three plastic crew members with the 'rope' on the helicopter from the capsule and transfer them to the boat." As shown there is only one figure included, there are no instructions and I am unsure if there may originally have been additional stickers. Otherwise the condition is nice though as shown with just a few scuffs etc. Please check the pictures to see condition for yourself. I popped in a couple of batteries and it didn't seem to be working. I have made no attempt to diagnose or repair it. NB newer c type batteries are heavier than the older tech and are too heavy to balance properly. I have some flat 80s C cells laying around and they balanced fine. It comes boxed as shown. As you can see the box is in reasonable shape but has a few small regions of peel, a few bumps and marks and a couple of punctures etc. 

I have added plenty of large photographs so you can see for yourself exactly what the condition is like. You will need to scroll to see all of the pictures and can zoom in by hovering over the photo with your mouse pointer.

I pride myself on my accurate descriptions and quality photos. The item you are buying is the exact one in the photos. 

If you have any questions then please message me, I'm always happy to answer any queries.
