Aurora Cessna 337 Skymaster, 1/72, 279-70
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
$59
1968 issue of the famous tandem light aircraft that saw civil and military service. After Aurora purchased the Comet molds, they reissued the Comet civil light aircraft line. It appears that Aurora may have been inspired by the Comet kits or sales of the reissues, and they produced several more new molds to add to the line. This Skymaster is one of those kits. Since the model was designed new, it has significantly more detail than the older Comet kits. Features all recessed panel lines, full interior with front and back bulkheads, four bucket seats and instrument panel, clear windows and rotating propellers. The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals and instructions.

Lindberg Junkers JU-87B Stuka Dive Bomber, 1/48, 524-98
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc++
$65
Late 1950s hardbox issue with Ray Gaedke box artwork. The box has like-new color and gloss, four solid corners, no fading and no price tags or tape/tape marks (beside the factory sealing tape, of course). Very light wear is the only flaw. Molded in correct gloss medium green and clear, with the futuristic Lindberg 'V' shaped clear stand. For the time, this was an excellent kit with fine reviews. Features fine panel and rivet detail, crew of two and seats, separately molded rudder and flap/ailerons, four small wing load bombs and a center bomb with 'swing arm' so that it would clear the prop in a dive. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Thanks to Dusty Rhodes for this information: The markings with this model, A5+HL, are from a -B2 (Trop.) captured intact in North Africa, 1941 and shipped to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. It is still there today (2020). This may very well be the aircraft that Lindberg Skokie-based designers examined as a basis for this model.

Big Bag 'O Pilots And Ground Figures, 1/48

This zip lock contains a dozens of injection molded figures left over from mostly 1/48 scale kits. I would say that 95% of them (if not all) are 1/48. I recognize figures from Hawk, Monogram, Aurora and others, so theres are older figures. Some are from the jet age; others from WWII and even WWI. Most are not painted; some are neatly painted. Sold as-is.
