BANDAI RARE, FULLY WORKING, TIN CABLE CAR BATTERY OPERATED WithCABLE & BOX

THIS IS THEIR MODEL NUMBER 562 AND IS SIMPLY CALLED THEIR "CABLE CAR", WHICH IS 100% OPERATIONAL AND IT'S STILL IN IT'S ORIGINAL BOX WITH IT'S ORIGINAL REMOTE CONTROL! I HAVE HAD THIS STASHED AWAY WITH A FEW HUNDRED OR SO ADDITIONAL MODELS ALL OF WHICH I HAVE PERSONALLY OWNED FOR UP TO 5 DECADES! THIS RARE BANDAI, 100% FULLY FUNCTIONING. IT HAS BEEN IN DRY STORAGE EVER SINCE COMING HOME WITH ME! HAVING HUNDREDS TO THOUSANDS OF MODEL CARS TO CHOOSE FROM, MOSTLY PORSCHE AND CORVETTES, I HAVE DECIDED TO START LISTING SOME OF THESE HERE ON E-BAY. 95% OF THESE ARE ONE-OF-A-KIND LISTINGS AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO SHOW YOU AN ARRAY OF PICTURES AND DESCRIBE THEM TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. THIS RARE BANDAI IS NO EXCEPTION TO THIS RULE! THIS IS NOT TO SAY THAT ONE HAS NEVER POPPED-UP, BUT, IF AND WHEN ONE DOES SHOW UP, CHANCES ARE WAY BETTER THEN AVERAGE THAT IT WOULD NOT WORK OR HAVE IT'S ORIGINAL BOX! THE TIN BODY ON THIS CABLE CAR HAS NO RUST, DIMPLES OR ANY MAJOR SIGNS OF USAGE.

YOU DO HAVE A FEW SHALLOW SCRATCHES AND SOME SIGNS OF VERY SLIGHT PLAY WEAR. KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS A USED ITEM AND IS NOT BEING REPRESENTED AS NOS (NEW OLD STOCK). THE CARS GLASS (REALLY PLASTIC) IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE/CONDITION, BUT, DOES HAVE SOME SLIGHT WARPAGE DUE TO IT'S AGE. THE ATTACHED OVERHEAD ARM IS FIRMLY ATTACHED AND PIVOTS IN THE DIRECTION THAT THE CABLE CAR IS TRAVELING IN.... IT IS DESIGNED THIS WAY SO AS TO GUIDE IT ALONG IT'S OVERHEAD CABLE.

THE CENTER WHEEL IS THE ONE WHICH DRIVES THIS CABLE CAR, THE OUTER WHEELS GUIDE IT. THE PAINT IS STILL VERY SHINY AND HOLDS A BRIGHT GLEAM WHEN LIGHT HITS IT. IT HAS A NICE ORIGINAL TWO-TONE COLOR SCHEME. THE INTERIOR CAN NOT BEEN SEEN AS IT IS NOT DESIGNED TO BE.

YOU DO HAVE THE ORIGINAL DUAL LIGHTS WHICH ARE STILL FULLY OPERATIONAL AND THESE DO WORK WHEN THE CABLE CAR IS POWERED ON (IN EITHER DIRECTION). ONE IS LOCATED IN THE FRONT AND THE OTHER IN THE REAR. THEY APPEAR TO HAVE A SLIGHT DELAY WHICH GIVES YOU THE IMPRESSION THAT THE POWER IS SLIGHTLY DELAYED FROM THE FRONT OF THE CABLE CAR TO THE REAR... JUST LIKE THE REAR THING!

THE CHASSIS OR BOTTOM OF THIS CABLE CAR IS IN EXCELLENT ALL AROUND CONDITION. ONCE AGAIN, YOU HAVE NO RUST, CREASES OR DIMPLES LOCATED ANYWHERE. THE POWER CABLE ENTERS THROUGH THE BOTTOM CENTER AND THIS WORKS WELL AS YOU CONTROL THE CABLE CAR WHILE ON IT'S LINE. TH ORIGINAL HAND HELD REMOTE CONTROL TAKES THREE (3) SIZE "D" BATTERIES (NOT INCLUDED) AND THIS TOO IS IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER/SHAPE. IT APPEARS THAT AT ONE TIME SOMEONE PLACED SOME TAPE ON IT.

THE LID SCREWS ON THE THEN THE TWO (2) TABS PIVOT INTO POSITION AND SECURES THE LID TO THE BASE. THESE ARE ORIGINAL AND WORK PERFECTLY. THE "FORWARD/OFF/REVERSE" SWITCH WORKS PERFECTLY AND YOU HAVE NO ISSUES ANYWHERE IN THE BATTERY CASE. THE ELECTRICAL CORD IS ORIGINAL AND IN PERFECT SHAPE/CONDITION. THE ELASTIC CABLE, MIGHT NOT BE ORIGINAL.

IN MY OPINION IT IS IN TOO GOOD OF SHAPE/CONDITION TO BE, BUT THEN AGAIN, IT HAS METAL TIES ON THE ENDS HOLDING THE CLIPS INTO PLACE, SO WHO KNOWS! IT WORKS PERFECTLY AND THE CABLE CAR HAS NO ISSUES TRAVELING ON IT AND IT GIVES JUST A LITTLE AS THE CABLE CAR TRAVELS ALONG IT. IN TESTING THIS, I HAD IT EASILY TRAVELING UP AND/OR DOWN A 30 DEGREE INCLINE WITH NO ISSUES! THE CABLE IS ABOUT 12 FEET IN LENGTH AND THE HOOKS AT BOTH ENDS ARE WELL ATTACHED AND WORK WELL. THE CABLE CAR TRAVELS IN BOTH DIRECTIONS WITH NO SLIPPAGE OF THE GEARS.

THE BOX IS 100% COMPLETE AND ORIGINAL. YOU DO HAVE A LITTLE SHELF WEAR AS THIS SHOULD BE EXPECTED FROM AN ITEM THAT IS NOT BEING REPRESENTED AS TRUE NOS (NEW OLD STOCK).

SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE SOMEONE ADDED SOME ADDITIONAL STAPLES TO BOTH THE BASE AND THE LID. YOU ALSO HAVE SOME SLIGHT TEARING AT SOME OF THE SEAMS.

THE GRAPHICS ARE SHARP AND CLEAN, BUT, DULL TO TODAYS STANDARDS. NO INSTRUCTIONS CAME WITH THIS CABLE CAR, AS THEY APPEAR TO BE ON THE SIDE OF THE LID AS SO PICTURED.

IT WILL STAY FACTORY SEALED. AFTER ALL JUST HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO TEST A MODEL? ALL ONE NEED DO IS TO TOSS IN A FEW BATTERIES AND GIVE IT A GO! IS FULLY TESTED (AND WORKS PERFECTLY) AND WILL BE FULLY TESTED ONCE MORE, JUST PRIOR TO SENDING IT OFF. I DO THIS TWICE, JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THE FIRST TESTING WAS NOT A FLUKE!

I TAKE PRIDE IN MY MODELS THAT I OFFER HERE IN THE E-BAY WORLD. I DO HAVE OPTIONS AND I CHOOSE TO OFFER ONLY THE VERY FINEST THAT I HAVE AVAILABLE. AS I MENTIONED ABOVE, I TEST EVERYTHING PRIOR TO LISTING IT AND ONCE AGAIN PRIOR TO SENDING THEM OFF. I DO THIS SO WE WILL BOTH BE VERY HAPPY WITH THE END RESULT, IT'S THE ONLY WAY I DO THINGS!

ONCE AGAIN, PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THESE PICTURES AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR DESIRE ADDITIONAL PICTURES, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME VIA E-BAY MESSAGING AND I WILL DO THE REST! IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF A MODEL AND A TIME THAT HAVE PASSED US BY. THIS IS A RELATIVELY NEW STORE FOR ME HERE ON E-BAY, BUT, I COME WITH A WELL OILED AND POLISHED TRACK RECORD! I SPECIALIZE IN PRIMARILY THE AUTOMOTIVE FIELD AND I CONCENTRATE WITH/ON PORSCHE, BENTLEY, AUDI AND. I HAVE A UPS ACCOUNT AND MOST OF MY OFFERINGS HERE SHALL BE SENT THAT WAY.

I PACK EACH AND EVERY ITEM MYSELF AND DO SO AS IF I WERE RECEIVING IT. UTILIZING THIS METHOD TO OBTAIN ONES SIGNATURE IS THE MOST ECONOMICAL ROUTE TO GO......

SO PLEASE BE PREPARED FOR THIS ON YOUR END! I DO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO SUBSTITUTE DHL AS AN INTERNATIONAL CARRIER (AT MY EXPENSE). INTERNATIONAL BUYERS, PLEASE READ THE VERY BOTTOM OF THIS SECTION AS IT DOES APPLY TO YOU..... AS MENTIONED ABOVE, THIS IS A NEW AREA FOR ME (HERE ON E-BAY) AND I DO TRY MY BEST TO DO AS GOOD AS I CAN. THIS HAS BECOME A FULL TIME BUSINESS FOR ME AND I REALLY ENJOY DOING IT.

I WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO TILL IT BECOMES A BURDEN AND I CAN NO LONGER ENJOY IT. I WILL BE ADDING TO THIS STORE WEEKLY (OR TRYING TO) AND HOPEFULLY YOU WILL SEE THAT I DO EXACTLY WHAT I SAY AND DO SO IN A VERY TIMELY FASHION. IT IS MY INTENTION TO LIST ONE OR TWO DIFFERENT MODELS EACH AND EVERY DAY (IF AT ALL POSSIBLE), OR UNTIL SUCH A TIME WHEN I GET BURNT OUT FROM DOING SO.

IT MIGHT BEHOOVE YOU TO CHECK IN WITH ME OFTEN AS YOU'LL NEVER KNOW WHEN AND IF I WILL OFFER THAT SPECIAL SOMETHING THAT WILL ROUND OUT OR COMPLETE YOUR COLLECTION! THIS IS WHERE I THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME IN READING ALL OF THE ABOVE. IN ORDER TO VIEW MY LISTINGS IN A CONCISE AND ORDERLY FASHION, ALL YOU NEED DO IS TO LOCATE THAT SMALL.

ONCE AGAIN, I THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATIONS ON THIS LIGHTLY USED AND FULLY OPERATIONAL, TIN, BANDAI CABLE CAR. WHICH IS STILL IN IT'S ORIGINAL BOX (AND IN GOOD ALL SHAPE/CONDITION AS WELL).
