Monogram Boeing 727 TWA (ex-Aurora), 1/96, 5414
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed Mint
Sold
Still factory sealed. This is the only model of the 'short' 727-100 near 1/100 scale and is an excellent kit due to Monogram's extensive mold rework. 1978 issue after Monogram bought Aurora's molds. Monogram only reissued the best and most commercially viable models. In this case, they saw the molds could be improved, and the result is a much better and accurate kit, the best 'short' body 727 available in near 1/100 scale. Monogram added a network of very fine raised panel lines to the fuselage (the original had no panel lines), filled the deep e-doors over the wings and made them fine raised also, added wing fences and fine raised panel lines to the wings, added flap hinges to the wing undersides and added fine raised panel lines to the horizontal stabilizers. Monogram was evidently proud of the improvement, and even shows them on the assembly drawings. With full landing gear. Contains excellent TWA full stripes and window decals.
