Corgi Diecast Model Vehicles - CC96308 Captain Scarlet Spectrum Pursuit Vehicle (SPV) - Men, Women & Kids Souvenir Gifts from UK - Small Die Cast Toy Model for Boys, Gift for Retro Enthusiasts

I owned the original Dinky version in the late 1960s, that was a great toy, I loved it! This Corgi version is truly an excellent model and I love it! The two are not the same, the Corgi is smaller and lighter and would not have survived the 'adventures' the Dinky had to. However The Corgi has a much better paint job, it has accurate wheels/tyres (I hated this on the Dinky! I was a very demanding 10 year old!) and it is everything I could wish for, I would not be as happy with a 100% copy of the Dinky now. Then and now I love the SPV design, it's the best hardware Gerry Anderson designed, just perfect! Don't ask me how the missile or door compare, never used either on the Corgi, don't care, I'm not 10 anymore. I hope this helps, seriously though it doesn't matter how old you are, or even if you've ever seen the Dinky version. If you love the SPV, you just gotta have it!

Fantastic model well presented looks good stand is well balanced

Had the dinky version as a child but these days the prices to replace it for one in decent condition are a bit on the high side. Enter Corgi with this reissue which is equally as good and with all the features of the original at a fraction of the price.

Very nicely detailed, however the missile door does not operate when the front suspension is depressed unless the door is pushed by hand. I was going to return but decided that as I’m 60 plus and not 6 I’m unlikely to be ‘playing’ with this feature 😂

Just like the original. Brilliant!

I wanted one of these in 1968 but as a 7 year old my pocket money wouldn’t stretch to 18/6d. 57 years later I am beaming to have received this treasured item!

Exactly as described packaged up great.

Brings back memories of boyhood. Starting my collection again.
