I have just retrieved one of these from my parents loft.
Are they very rare /collectable?

Hi,
Thank you very much. I will take a picture this afternoon once I am home. I couldn't find the red plastic lid yesterday but will keep looking.
It is similar to this one

These are very collectible because they were not available to the general public and display models very well.

In the USA I buy all of them I can find if the price is $100 or less. But I have seen them go for much more.

If you cant find the red top that will drop the value. Also sometimes the plastic sides will yellow. They should be perfectly clear.

Also, they can to totally disassembled for shipping.
