This unusual model consists of the standard Dinky Mini-Moke in military green, with a working parachute which allows it to be thrown into the air and to gently float down to the ground. That's the theory, anyway. The Mini-Moke has a detachable light grey-brown canopy, spare tyre and opening bonnet with detailed engine. For parachuting purposes it is securely strapped to a plastic 'assault platform' which in turn is attached to the parachute.
The vehicle and platform are in near mint condition, apart from a small piece broken off the bottom of one canopy support. It has its original parachute and string, although they are no longer attached to each other, and the instruction leaflets which show the best way of stringing, folding and throwing the parachute. The original box has some creasing and crushing, and the tab is missing from one end flap. There is some scribble on one side.
