ESCI Stinson Reliant SR-9, 1/48, 4104
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG++
$32
The famous and beautiful gull-winged SR-9 was the 1937 version of the SR series which began in 1933 and continued in production until 1941. The aircraft was popular and saw use as personal transports and executive planes. Five passenger could be seated in deluxe accommodations. The military used 45 privately owned SRs during WWII. Today this aircraft is very valuable and sought after by collectors and restorers. Nicely detailed with full interior, positionable pilot, optional position door and detailed engine. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions.

Aurora McDonnell F-4H Phantom, 1/48, 394-249
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: NM
$129
Rare and even more so in superb, investment-grade 'Near Mint' box condition. This large-scale, early Phantom kit with great Jo Kotula box artwork is dated 1961 but actually from '64 or '65 judging from the lack of 'Famous Fighters' in the logo border. The box has fantastic color and gloss, four solid corners, no tape/tape marks and no price tags or tag marks. The only flaw is very light wear. The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts present and includes decals and instructions.
Aurora Bristol F2B Brisfit - (F-2B), 1/48, 113-98

1957 first issue with dramatic Jo Kotula artwork. The box is in amazing, investment-grade 'Near Mint' condition. Color and gloss are perfect, as are the four corners. There are no price tags or tape and no marks from either (other than the factory sealing tape, of course). There is no fading, cuts, tears, stains or missing litho. The only flaws are very light wear, mainly on the edges. Molded in the correct gloss dark olive and black plastic. The kit inside is mint and never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. Decals and instructions are both flat and 'excellent' with typical yellowing as the only flaw.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc+++
$139

There is no fading, no stains, no tears or missing litho, no creases and no price tags or tag marks. It would have graded 'Near Mint' but there is a very small (11mmx 5mm) factory tape pull on the upper long side. Molded in the correct gloss deep green with flexible black treads. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions.
Aurora Martin B-26 Marauder - Famous Fighters Of All Nations, 1/46, 371-259
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$275
Very rare first issue from the early 1950s. When Aurora moved to the West Hempstead plant, they planned a series of very large scale bombers. All kits released up to this time had been small. Aurora's instincts were correct, and the B-26, B-25 and B-29 were a big sales success. This box art was done by Jim Cox and was only used for about one year, making it very rare. The kit has never been started and is inventoried 100% complete with all parts, large clear stand, instructions and decals. The box has great color, four solid corners with no repairs, no creasing, no stains, fading or writing, no cardboard tears or rips, no price tags and no tape beyond the factory sealing tape. There is light general wear and please note that the box displays slightly better than the 'Excellent' grade but it is rated as such because there is light general wear not visible in the photo and a 1.5" x 3/8" factory tape tear on the top long side.
