1/8 471 Aurora The Silver Knight of Augsberg
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Fair
Classic and very popular Aurora knight kit from the original molds. This example is from the 1963 release from Aurora of Great Britain. Large 1/8 scale kit is molded gloss silver and has the original purple plume (an odd color). The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts, plume and excellent instructions. In the mid 1950s, Aurora bought three 'Knight' molds from Crown Plastics and issued them as K1, K2 and K3. These were the very first Aurora figure kits and they sported the 1956-only rectangular 'Northern Lights' logo with the correct 'Crown Line' logo inside it. The sales success of the Knight prompted Aurora to launch an entire line of figure kits. The knights themselves stayed in production long after many other figures were discontinued.
