AV Models Kokusai Ki-59 - Theresa, 1/72, 72760

Resin Model Kit,   Box Condition: Exc

Sold   

Rare and the only kit of this subject. Beautifully molded in high-definition resin, many fine cast metal details, film instrument panels, clear canopy, cockpit detail and more. Includes two sheets of decals and painting guide. Never started. Most parts are still factory sealed. The few that are not have been inventoried complete with decals and instructions included. The Kokusai Ki-59 (Isshiki-yusoki) was an early 1940s light transport monoplane built by Nippon Kokusai Koku Kogyo K.K for the Imperial Japanese Army as a development of the Teradako-ken TK-3 which had first flown in 1938. In 1939, the Imperial Japanese Army called for the design of a prototype eight-to-ten passenger light transport monoplane to meet its urgent requirement for a light transport and liaison aircraft, and instructed Nippon Koku Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha to develop the design as the Ki-59. The Ki-59 was a high-wing cantilever monoplane with a fixed tail wheel landing gear and conventional single vertical tail surfaces. It was ordered into production in 1941 with the designation "Army Type 1 Transport", and a total of 59 units were produced. After the start of World War II, the aircraft was given the Allied code name "Theresa". Despite the more powerful engines and modifications sponsored by the Japanese Army, the Ki-59 remained a poor performer and saw little service before being replaced by the more capable Tachikawa Ki-54. Near the end of 1941 one Ki-59 was modified into a glider with the removal of the engines and the landing gear replaced by under-fuselage skids. It was designated the Ku-8-I or "Army Experimental Glider". This was further developed as the Ku-8-II or "Army Type 4 Large Transport Glider" which became the only operationally-used Japanese assault glider. The Ku-8 was code named 'Gander' by the Allies.

Charmore Mig-15 - Trail Blazers of Transportation, 1/72

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Exc+

Sold   

Very rare kit for the advanced collector. Charmore was located at 126 Market Street in Paterson, New Jersey. They issued a small line of kits in the early 1950s, at the dawn of US plastic kit production. All boxes have the same art - the name of the kit stamped on a side white panel. Inside, the kit has never been started. The contents are mint and complete in the original Charmore paper sacks. The main parts are the correct gloss silver (just one of the several colors that Charmore used), while the canopy, stand and stand arm are clear. Includes decals and instructions. From toy historians, we know that Charmore was created by the toy giant Louis Marx Company after 1945. Evidently Marx hope to obtain retail buyer-level advantages and tax breaks from the arrangement. The company was named for Louis' brother's (David) wife, Charlene. It has been shown that Charmore and Marx mixed molds and products when it came to toys; however, it seems that the model lines were separate. Please email me if you have more details.
