Batman Japanese Friction-Powered Tin Jumbo Jet Plane (Koyo, 1960's)....

Description

Batman Japanese Friction-Powered Tin Jumbo Jet Plane (Koyo, 1960's). This rare Batman Jumbo Jet was exclusive to the Japanese market and produced by Koyo Kinzoku in the 1960's. At 6" across and 7" long, the lithographed tin body has an image of Batman and several Batman logos. This is one of several different decos Koyo used for this style jumbo jet. It has rubber wheels and uses friction to propel it forward when pushed. Very few examples of this plane are known to exist, making this a great piece to add to your Batman collection. The plane has some scratches and rust spots but is in fair condition overall with good colors. It has some rust on the unpainted tin on the bottom and tail and no original packaging is included. The friction motor still works but no guarantee can be made of its working condition in the future.
