Britains Super Deetail British Paratroopers - Set # 6300 - Mint in Original Counter Pack Box - Dealer Stock
48 figures in 4 poses - painted plastic figures on metal bases
This is a mint, unopened, complete counter pack boxed set. As you can see from the side label, it was suggested that the contents would include the four "lost" poses, which were never widely produced. It does not include any of these poses. Only the label features pictures of them. This set only contains the four standard poses of the set.
You will receive 48 figures in all 4 poses. The box shows a little wear and slight tears.
Two paratroops carry the FAL light automatic rifle, which was used to equip many NATO armies. Another aims the Carl Gustav M2CG Bazooka, an 84mm portable reusable anti-tank recoilless rifle.
To create their Super Deetail line, Britain's used a process that took plastics of different colors and fused them together, giving the impression of being painted. This process, now lost to the ages, has never been reproduced, making these figures unique in Britain's history. Only one version of this set was ever produced, beginning in 1980 and ending in 1988.
