SMER Viking Ship - (Aurora Copy), 1/80, 0902

Great builder if you are a fan of the Aurora kit. This model is a copy of the Aurora Viking ship in the same scale. Merit originally pirated the Aurora molds; then Artiplast acquired Merit. Ultimately SMER ended up with most the Artiplast molds, including this one. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions.

Revell Lacrosse Missile with Mobile Launcher - 'S' Issue, 1/40, H1816-169
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: NM
$155
Rare 1958 first issue 'S' hardbox; not the common reissue. The box is in investment-grade 'Near Mint' condition with perfect color and gloss. All four corners are solid and have not been repaired. There is no staining or fading, no missing litho, no price tags or marks and no tape or tape marks (other than very light factory tape marks, of course). Flaws include very light wear, two very light creases that don't even show up in the photo and some very light general wear, mainly on the lower right long side (and on the right of that panel). This model is very highly detailed and features working launcher, opening doors, sliding ladders, rotating wheels, rubber tires, rocket with moving fins, a launch crew of three and much more. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present.
Precise Douglas Bendix Royal Canadian Air Force Sparrow II Missile For The CF-105 Arrow
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: NM
$550
Very rare and historical piece from the CF-105 program weapons subcontractor, Douglas-Bendix. The Sparrow II was to be the weapons system for the supersonic CF-105 Arrow interceptor; please note the "R.C.A.F." on the body and Roundel on the fin. However, major problems prevented the Sparrow II from ever seeing operational service and played a small roll in the demise of the Arrow. Other systems were more expensive or less effective. The AWG-9 was offered, but was too costly. The Falcon was offered (and originally planned), but was not adequate. Thus this beautiful and capable aircraft was without a weapons system, which contributed to the ultimate cancellation. This very rare display model was made by Precise as a promotional item for Douglas and Bendix (the two main contractors). The missile is 6.5 inches long as is the clear base. It comes in the original shipping box with a two-sided information card on the missile. Condition is near mint - it has only been taken out of the box twice. Base upright reads 'Douglas Bendix Sparrow II'. No touch ups/repairs or cracks. Insurance required on shipping.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$325
First issue from late 1964. Very rare, especially in an 'excellent' box, untouched inside, never started and 100% complete. Also has no significant tire burns (I did not see any; if there are any, they are very small). This is a well detailed model with full engine and engine compartment, complete interior, opening hood, numerous optional parts and much more. Molded in white, chrome, clear, red-tinted clear and with rubber wheels, metal axles and metal body screws. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Decals are flat but have typical age cracking with some slight lifting, so they are graded 'good'. Instructions are 'excellent+.'

$22

Revell F-104 Starfighter With Sidewinders - 'S' Kit, 1/64, H199-89
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$65
1960 'S' issue with fantastic box artwork. Revell brought new life to the original F-104 molds by including four then-new AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles, ground missile trailer and ground crew. The kit has never been started. The parts and paperwork are still in the internal clear factory sealed bag. Literally the entire contents of the kit are still factory sealed. Please note that the box displays better than the 'good' grade; it is rated as such because of litho separation on the edge of the lower long side as shown, a piece of clear tape on both long sides, other edge wear and some general light wear.

Rare 1958 first issue with the box art that made these kits so famous and collectible.

Revell Lockheed F-94 Starfire 1st Issue - Pre 'S' One Piece Box, 1/56, H201-59
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good++
$225
Very Rare. This is one of the first three aircraft models issued by Revell back in 1953. This kit is correct with no rivets and no landing gear as well as the unique stand that was only issued with these three kits (and their gift set). This box is in unusually good condition, complete with all end flaps and has not been crushed - usually these thin one-piece boxes are in very bad condition. The box has never been repaired. Flaws include the marker writing on the top, the same size marker with 'K219' on the left short end panel, and very light general wear. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present. Instructions are printed on the back of the box. It is very interesting to note that this kit is different from the 'Pre-S' issue in the following ways: no rivet detail, almost no panel lines, different part numbers, pilots are a part of the fuselage (busts only), one piece wings and absence of the pods at the half-wingspan line, no landing gear and no holes for such, very early 'Colortone' logo decals and a silver, two piece plastic stand of a unique design that was never used again.

Revell 105mm Howitzer - With Crew, 1/40, H539-79
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc+++
$115
1958 first issue in beautiful 'Excellent+++' condition. Not the common 1960s version or a 1990s reissue. The box has stunning color and gloss, four solid corners, no repairs, no fading or stains, no creasing and no tape & tape marks other than the factory sealing tape. Very, very light general wear is the only only flaw and a tiny spec of white at the center left as shown.
