GENERAL INFO

One of the very last Regular Wheels to be released, 42C Iron Fairy Crane is of course only available in F type boxes. Both F2 boxes have “TM” on the end flap closers and both sport “NEW” on end flaps. Bottom lettering is either “ALP” or “LPC”.

All boxes are size 7 and the mode shown is consistent with the real model.

RARITY

The “LPC” version is a bit harder to find.
