Pyro 1/1200 USS Hornet Aircraft Carrier (Essex Class) - Table Top Navy, C384-50 plastic model kit

1/1200 C384-50 Pyro USS Hornet Aircraft Carrier (Essex Class) - Table Top Navy

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good

Small scale ship kit from the Table Top Navy series. Very nicely done kits for their time. Can be built full hull or waterline. Features propeller and shaft detail, separately molded island and other deck details and more. NOTE: this kit has the hull halves and island halves glued together. Quality of assemlby is professional. There is no other assembly. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and instructions. Many of the Pyro kits came from Eagle (then Eaglewall) molds in England. Eaglewall went out of business around 1962 and Pyro acquired at least some of the molds. Pyro reissued some of these kits in the mid 1960s with AJ Rudisill artwork. Evidently the line was successful, as Pyro then cut some of their own molds and expanded the series significantly. The earlier issues have the full color artwork and a three digit part number. Later issues have a 'B' or 'C' in front of the three digit kit number; some have simplified box art that is a modification of the original Rudisill paintings by painting out most of the background. Pyro issued these kits into the late 1960 when Life-Like took over the molds. Some were reissued by Life-Like.
