1979 BELGIUM STADIUM EDITION. STILL SHRINK WRAPPED. MEGA RARE.

ONE OF THE RAREST BOX SETS MADE BY SUBBUTEO AND THIS ONE IS STILL SHRINKWRAPPED AND HAS NEVER BEEN OPENED. ADDED TO IT'S RARITY THIS SET CAME FROM BELGIUM AND INCLUDES EXTRA PAPER WORK THAT WAS ONLY AVAILABLE WITH SETS FROM THAT COUNTRY. THE SET DATES FROM 1979 AND WAS ONLY MADE FOR 2 YEARS (1979 AND 1980). THERE ARE 3 TRAYS TO THIS SET AND IT CONTAINS A HUGE AMOUNT OF EQUIPMENT. THE TOP TRAY CONTAINS: 2 FLOODLIGHTS, A SET OF RULES, 2 ZOMBIE TEAMS: STANDARD RED AND THE STANDARD BLUE KITS, 2 GOALS, 2 LARGE BALLS, A BAIZE PITCH AND 6 LINE/CORNER FLAGS. THE MIDDLE TRAY CONTAINS: THE TV TOWER COMPLETE WITH LADDER, CAMERAMEN AND MONITORS, THE ARGENTINA TEAM IN THE ZOMBIE FIGURE, A SCOREBOARD WITH TEAM AND CUP NAMES, A COMPLETE SET OF FENCE SURROUND, THE JULES RIMET WORLD CUP, A REFEREE AND 2 LINESMEN AND THE PHOTOGRAPHER, TRAINER AND MANAGER SET. THE BOTTOM TRAY CONTAINS: 3 CORNER KICKERS IN THE COLOURS OF ARGENTINA, STANDARD RED AND STANDARD BLUE KITS, 3 THROWING FIGURES IN THE SAME MATCHING COLOURS AS THE CORNER KICKERS, 3 MORE LARGE SIZE BALLS, THE MANAGER AND TRAINERS BENCH SET WITH COVERED BENCH, THE POLICE AND AMBULANCE SET COMPLETE WITH STRETCHER, 5 PAINTED SPECTATOR FIGURES, 6 BALL BOYS AND THE ORIGINAL GREEN AND TAN COLOURED GRANDSTAND. THIS WAS THE LARGEST SET MADE IN 1979. BECAUSE THE SET IS STILL SHRINKWRAPPED THE CONTENTS ARE IN MINT UNUSED CONDITION, THE BOX HAS NO SPLIT CORNERS AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION - WE DON'T THINK IT'S POSSIBLY TO FIND A BETTER EXAMPLE. ALSO INCLUDED THE RULES BOOK IN FRENCH & DUTCH, AN EXTRA SHEET OF TEAM NAMES FOR THE SCOREBOARD LISTING BELGIUM CLUBS EXCLUSIVE TO BELGIUM, A COLOUR FLIER/PRICE LIST EXCLUSIVE TO BELGIUM, THE STANDARD 1979 UK CATALOGUE AND THE STANDARD 1978 UK POSTER LISTING ALL THE SUBBUTEO TEAMS AVAILABLE FROM 1 TO 312. THESE EXTRA ITEMS ARE ALSO IN MINT CONDITION. A TRULY SUPERB ITEM AND POSSIBLY THE ONLY ONE OF IT'S KIND THAT HAS SURVIVED IN THIS CONDITION.
