Vintage Tinplate Battery-Op M101 Aston Martin Secret
Ejector Car, Daiya, Japan. AFiB
A vintage tinplate battery-operated M101 Aston Martin Secret
Ejector Car with remote control, ie, James Bond's Aston Martin
DB5 as seen in Goldfinger and Thunderball, with silver body,
James Bond driver figure, “enemy” passenger figure,
bullet-proof shield, machine guns and ejector seat,
made in Japan for Durham Industries of New
York, USA, by the Daiya Co. in the 1960’s.
The car measures 11 inches long by 4 wide and 3.5 inches
tall (with roof closed) and is in good original non-working
condition with some playwear and paint loss in places and
a crease in the tinplate opening roof. The car should move
with mystery action, moving the switch to “machine guns”
makes the car moves with flashing machine guns out
and firing, and rear bullet proof shield raised.
Pressing the button on the remote makes the enemy
passenger be ejected through the roof.
The tinplate car is in good condition with a few scratches and
loss of paint as described. However, the remote battery box
has suffered rust damage and been repainted and I would
suspect this is the cause of the car not working. When
the lever is moved on the remote, nothing happens, so
there is no connection being made to the car.
Marked on the inside of the rear windscreen with “Made
in Japan”, it comes with a fair to good original box which
shows wear and damage in places but is still ok for display
and makes a nice addition to this classic, hard to find toy.
It is marked on the sides with “Durham Industries….N.Y.”
and “Made in Japan”.
A nice vintage toy that deserves to be restored to
working condition, or great just for display.
