Sign up for the Hotlist.

Very rare, early 1960s issue in big 1/550 scale from Fujimi Mokei Company Limited. Features very collectible glossy box artwork in a large box. This model represents Hiei in all 'all big gun' configuration before she was converted to a hybrid aircraft carrier. This kit is designed to be a scale model for water operation. It features an RE-26 electric motor, steel,brass & nylon gearbox that drives two propellers, battery contacts, universal joints, switch, wiring, metal propeller shafts, propeller stuffing boxes, on/off function by turning one of the main turrets, lower hull correctly molded in 'IJN Hull Red', detailed superstructure, separately molded secondary casemate guns and turrets, rangefinders, fire control, spotlights, catapult and aircraft and more. The parts above the waterline are molded in gray and black plastic. Never started. All parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags; the electric motor and running hardware bags have the Fujimi Mokei paper headers while the others never had them. Includes large, fold-out instructions. The box would grade slightly higher than 'excellent' but is rated as such because there is some clear tape on the sides and a small tape tear (1.5" x 3/8") on the left short side.

$1200   

One of the 'Holy Grails' of 1950s Space Kits and in exceptional condition inside and out. This is the 1957 first and only issue 'S' Kit with fantastic box art. The molds were reportedly damaged beyond use, which makes reissues impossible. The spaceship was designed by the rocket scientist Ellwyn E. Angle of Systems Laboratories Inc. Features detailed manned top stage with full interior, removable top, opening hatch, spaceship and ground crew members and detailed working launch pad. The main stages and boosters snap apart to recreate all phases of the flight from Earth takeoff, Lunar Landing and Return to Earth. The included 'XSL-01 Operations Manual' outlines in words and illustrations each phase of the spaceship's trip. Molded in the correct gloss orange, silver, gloss metallic blue and clear. Never started. All internal factory cardboard presentation material is present and excellent. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present. Instructions and Operations manual booklet are both in 'excellent' condition. The decals perfectly flat, 100% intact and graded 'excellent' with age yellowing as the only flaw. The box is graded 'excellent+' and features factory-new color and gloss, four solid corners, no repairs, no rips, fading or stains, no creases, no price tags or marks from tags and no tape or tape marks (other than the factory sealing tape). The only flaws are very minor wear as shown, some corner wear and a small sliver of litho damage measuring 1/2" long by 1/16" wide on the right long side. Shipping insurance is required on this kit.

Heller Admiral Sheer German Heavy Cruiser / Pocket Battleship, 1/400, 800

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good-

$34   

1970s 'Yellow' box issue and a very nicely detailed, full-hull kit of this famous sister to the Graf Spee. These kits are still in demand for their detail and accuracy, since Heller did their research in identifying the differences between Scheer, Spee and Lutzow. These are integrated into these kits down to the porthole differences. A very nicely detailed, full-hull kit of this famous sister to the Graf Spee. She saw heavy action and was Germany's most successful capital ship surface raider of WWII. She was also a fairly luck ship and survived to very near the end of the war. While in port, most of her crew was ashore and an RAF bombing raid capsized the ship. She was scrapped after the war but part of the hull was used for fill for a quay. This model is very well detailed with 200 pieces. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals, metal chain and instructions.

Renwal The Visible V8 - Transparent Motorized Operating Auto Engine - (Visible V-8), 1/4, 802-1095

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Poor++

$325   

The early issue from the late 1950s or early 1960s. Classic motorized kit with over 100 moving parts. All internal cardboard and cello display packing is present. When built, all major internal parts move via electric motor and spark plugs (red lights) flash in time. This kit has never been started. The small metal parts and hardware are still factory sealed. I did a complete inventory on all clear, red, black and metallic colored parts and they are complete. Does include the very rare Renwal plastic cement. Please NOTE that the box only grades as 'Poor++.' The very top of the box (shown) is intact, but the rest of the box was in about 8 pieces and is neatly taped together with clear tape. Three sides panels are complete, but the right short one is missing (2) 2" long sections on the far left and far right; they have been replaced with white cardboard. The box bottom is complete but also taped together. Summary: the actual kit is excellent but the box is not in collectible condition.

Rare 1940s stick-and-tissue rubber powered flying model kit with a 28 wingspan and retractable landing gear. Could be easily converted to electric power and RC with today's light components. Inside, the kit is exactly as it left the factory. All of the parts are specially wrapped (I am calling it 'internally sealed) in the plans and you can be the very first to open it! The box is in 'very good' condition which is exceptional for these thing, lightweight boxes. The box art by Alan Berni unfortunately shows Corsairs attacking what appears to be CV-3, USS Saratoga. Hobby Model was located in New York, NY and had a large and extensive line of wooden flying models and also solid wood display scale models.
