Item Description
Large 13x28x8" deep box contains hard plastic battery operated frogman and accessories by Remco ©1961. Box has some overall aging and spotting mostly evident on the back and a few areas on the front. Top of box is marked "Mr. Dealer Pre-Assembled Display Enclosed." Box is tightly packed with 3-sided display bkg. to which all pieces are attached. It appears none of these have been removed from the display. Includes walkie-talkie, snorkel, marker buoy with flag, rifle, helmet and spear gun. Rubberband holding rifle has broken. The figure has adjustable ballast tanks. These can be filled with water to control the depth at which the figure operates. The rubber bulb attached to the filling tube has hardened with age and flattened. Also comes with 4-page illustrated instruction folder and includes a "History Of Frogmen." Toy was not tested as we did not want to remove it from the store display and risk creasing the cardboard inserts. This is apparently old store stock. All parts with the exception of the rubber bulb are N. Mint.
