Hasegawa Boeing B-47E Stratojet - USAF SAC, 1/72, K7
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$52
This model is well detailed with very fine raised panel detail and recessed control surface outlines, cockpit, opened or closed bomb bay doors with internal iron bomb load, tail "stinger" and detailed landing gear with good gear wells. The kit has never been started. The small parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags; the larger parts have been inventoried complete including decals and instructions. The B-47 was a very advanced aircraft at the time. The XB-47 first flew in 1947. The big jet's speed was equal to or greater than all current fighter aircraft, so it received radar-controlled twin 20mm cannons in the tail as the only guns. Through the use of mid-air refueling, the B-47 gave SAC it's first all-jet force for nuclear or regular bomb delivery. Although it was tricky to fly, Stratojets flew into the mid 1960s. A program to strengthen the wings for low-level attack was responsible for prolonging the service life.

This is a modern reissue of the originally rare Renwal Task Force "A" and "B" Ships. Includes all of the ships listed, which Renwal originally issued in two different sets labeled "Task Force A" and "Task Force B." Renwal did an excellent job on their ship models, so these are well detailed for such a small scale. Includes an excellent decal sheet which is a big improvement over the original issues. These are full hull (not waterline) models. Never started and the parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions.

Aurora Russian Nuclear Powered Bomber - (M-50/M-52 Bounder), 1/182, 128-98
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
$179
1959 one-and-only release with colorful Jo Kotula artwork. This kit bears much resemblance to the 'Bounder' bomber. In the late 1950s, a drawing of the Bounder appeared in a popular aviation magazine; it is widely assumed that Aurora made the kit from that drawing. Aurora's push to always be first with new subject matter resulted in some errors in judgment which resulted in some incredibly rare kits like this one. Molded in the correct gloss light gray & clear. Never started. Inventoried complete with all parts, decals and instructions present. The decals intact, fairly flat (with one corner starting to curl) and the normal yellowing. The instructions are in 'excellent++ condition with light yellowing as the only flaw. The box top is solid with great color and gloss, no repairs, no price tags or tape (or marks from either), no rips, tears or fading but it has edge wear and general wear as shown.

Pyro Gertrude L Thebaud Fishing Schooner, 206-298
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
$95
Rare early issue from Pyro that is likely from the very late 1950s or early 1960s. This is a very good model of the famous fishing schooner that was built by Louis G. Thebaud and christened by his wife Gertrude. After being initially defeated by the Blunose, the Thebaud won the Sir Thomas Lipton Trophy in 1930 in a hard-fought contest with her rival. The contest is still disputed to this day. The model measures 20 inches long when built and features 125 pieces, full one-piece hull with display stand, deck fittings, rigging material and full rigging instructions. Molded in black and wood tan. The kit has never been started. Almost all parts are still in the factory sealed bags. The few parts that were never factory sealed (the largest parts such as the hull and deck, etc) has been inventoried complete. Includes instructions with rigging details.
Airfix Trans-Canada Vanguard - Vickers Vanguard Jet-Prop Of Trans-Canada Airlines, 1/144, 4-98
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$38
From the 1960s and an ideal builder. The British were very quick to design and build successful turbo (jet) prop airliners after the war. The turboprops had superior speed, range and fuel economy. The Vanguard was one of several excellent designs. She cruised at 425 MPH with a full passenger load and 7 to 8 tons of cargo below the cabin. NOTE: this kit has minor and neat sub-assembly as follows: wing halves; elevator halves. Assembly is performed to 'near mint' standards. There is no other assembly but please note that the tops of the both fuselage halves are painted white. I recommend removing the paint with spray-on oven cleaner. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts and includes 'excellent' condition colorful Trans-Canada Air Lines decals and instructions.

Verneuil Panhard 1891 Europe Model Kits, 1/32
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$28
The 1891 Panhard was among the very first modern cars and with it's groundbreaking innovations was certainly the grandfather of the present day automobile. This is a rare kit of this historic automobile from when France clearly lead the automotive world in technology and quality. This happened largely because the French people, government and authorities embraced the horseless carriage; this was the opposite of what happened in most countries, especially Great Britain where they regulated it almost completely out of existence. The actual model is nicely molded and features about 75 pieces, detailed suspension and drive line, large assembly guide with numbered parts layout, text & fully illustrated step-by-step instructions and automobile history (in French). There is no assembly but NOTE: the spokes of two wheels have been very neatly painted red. There is no other painting. Inventoried complete with all parts and instructions present.

Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$32
1960s Pyro issue from original molds. In the early to mid 1960s the Pyro company chose many of it's kit subjects based more on historical significance than popularity. Luckily for us, Pyro not only made these kits but did an excellent job for the time. The Pyro car models are based on the actual cars that Pyro engineers and designers had access to. In some cases, the specific car and owner is on the box. The model includes colored injection molded parts, clear parts, detailed chassis and complete interior. Ideal for slot car conversion. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts and instructions.
