Highly desirable factory sealed original Battle Cat from 1983.  This MISB 12-back example was recently pulled directly from a factory sealed case and remains remarkably well preserved.  Similar to a canvas in texture, the box quality and artwork on this piece is simply amazing.  No colorbreak whatsoever along the edges and the vintage factory tape is present and remains intact on each end.  Clear window on the front (nearly all have yellowed) and rubber band wrapped perfectly around his helmet, this one is a stunner.  The reverse is clean and white and is completely free from the typical flap cease plaguing most examples.  A piece commensurate with its strong assigned grade, we expect major of action on this lot.  Collectors are well aware that a case-fresh Battle Cat of this quality rarely comes to market.  The highest graded Battle Cat that we have ever offer.  Graded August 2022.  Encapsulated by CAS (80+, 80-85-85), #10196717
