No, not according to Nick's guide, could easily be a repaint, needs holding in the hand to define further.

Nice . I don't have one, but I remember it was blue.. I don't think they had green windows... If the price is right.. be nice in the hand to look over.as other people say..
(Humbrol green also springs to mind #3?)

Hello Mike, not in that colour Green, but it did come in a Military Green, but as a Superfast model.

Hello Maldat, no the old Blue one had Green windows, I see your one with a gun has the letter "A" on the bonnet, but my one came from America in a Twin pack, and has a star on the bonnet, these are had to find loose with the ammunition box still with it.

Hello maldat I am English but live in Australia not America, so the word colour will always be spelt this way with an "U" in it.
The colour of mine is true colour, your one does seem a shade darker if that's the true colour. George T.
