Here's a link saying it was manufactured in W. Germany in the '60s:

But take a look midway down the page at the Old Irish Racing site (great collection of Healey models, btw): https://www.oldirish.com/collection/healey.html That says it looks like a '70s or '80s model. I'm pretty sure I saw one of these for sale in a toy store in Boston around that time (just a regular store selling stuff to tourists, not any kind of antique or vintage store) so I'm inclined to go with the Old Irish estimate.
