Notes:

The 800 series cars were not sold separately. There were three variations of this model. One was unpainted white plastic and is the most common. The second is painted white with fixed doors (as shown in the photo). The third has movable doors. The last two are rare and because of this Greenberg lists them as "NRS" (No Recorded Sales) to obtain any value for these two cars.
