Offering a fabulous tin lithograph TWA Airport Service helicopter, manufactured in Japan in 1971, exclusively for Mego Corp. The helicopter body is litho decorated with colors in red, white, yellow, blue, and gray, while the helicopter cockpit shows two occupants behind a blue plastic windshield. The wheels activate movement on the three-blade rotor (which lifts off for ease of storage), and the movable tail rotor swivels vertically by hand.
This motor driven metal toy was apparently part of a Helicopter Series, as the box cover shows one Police model and another for Pan Am.
The helicopter itself is in excellent condition, although the box has certainly seen better days, with each panel showing its age.
Measures approx. 12" long and 4-3/4" high (to the rotor top). The only real signs of wear or scratching noted is on the tail rotor.
