The dinky volkswagen beetle was launched in February 1956 at the price of 2/6 and was available in blue, green, grey and a darker blue with spun hubs; promoted as a special "RAF" issue.
The image above shows six of the beetles in mint condition, never having been removed from their dealer packaging: which consists of a protective cellophane wrapping.
An individual model in mint condition can fetch up to £120, and the six models above sold for £700. Although the wrapping doesn't add much net worth per se, it's still nice to see such a well preserved and authentic piece.
