Aurora Regulus II Guided Missile - With Mobile Launching Platform, 1/48, 378-249
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$265
Rare and even rarer in this condition. This kit was factory sealed but the seal recently split across the back - so I opened it up to do a 100% inventory and slid the seal back on. Inside, the kit is exactly as it left the factory - never started, with the red parts still in a factory sealed clear bag and with all other parts inventoried 100% complete, including 'excellent+++' decals and instructions. 1958 release of this famous kit featuring classic Jo Kotula boxart. The large 1/48 scale missile comes with a fully operational scale launcher. Please note this is a true first issue because there is no Parents' Magazine' printed logo or the golden sticker. The model features a well detailed missile with lower booster and the mobile launcher with good suspension detail, valves boxes and covers, tow bar, servicing and access platforms with railings, elevating main pad and three figures. Molded in the correct deep gloss red, silver and dark blue plastic. Please note that this kit displays better than the 'excellent' box grade but is rated as such because long crease on part of the lower long box side. This kit must be shipped insured. The Aurora "Missile Line" is legendary. In the late 1950s, the first missile model kits sold briskly, so Aurora and Revell both planned extensive lines. However, the missile modeling craze disappeared as quickly as it started. Models that were in the works were canceled or completed if they were far enough along. Those that were completed were fine efforts but sold poorly and had very short lives, making them rare collector items today.
Aurora Convair F-102 Dart - (YF-102 Delta Dagger), 1/121, 290-50
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: NM+
$56
This model is in an amazing, investment-grade 'Near Mint+' box. It is dated 1957, but from the mid 1960s due to the oval logo with the blue outline. This small scale kit with dramatic Jo Kotula box artwork is nicely molded with clear canopy, full landing gear and a display stand. This is a model of the very early YF-102 prototype with the straight (non-area rule) fuselage. The kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete including decals and instructions. Around this time, Aurora issued a series of inexpensive (usually 29 cent) small scale kits that were designed to sell at almost any type of retail location. The line was very successful and quickly expanded. When Aurora purchased the Comet molds, those kits fit in nicely with this established line.
Anigrand Ilyushin Il-22, 1/72, AA2092
Resin Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$82
Very highly detailed resin kit. The parts are still in the internally sealed bags. Includes decals and instructions. In early 1946, the first Soviet designed jet engine, TR-1 was completed. The USSR Council of Ministers issued requirement for a new bomber that would use four of TR-1 jet engines. Ilyushin and Sukhoi were called to begin work on the jet bomber design that resulted in the Il-22 and Su-10. After the Myasishchev OKB was closed in 1945 several key design staff were transferred to Ilyushin and they became involved in the Il-22's design. The Il-22 prototype was rapidly assembled and made its first flight in July 1947. It proved to have docile handling characteristics, but was severely underpowered as the TR-1 engines only produced 80% of the required thrust. As the engines thrust could not be increased in a timely manner, Ilyushin made the decision not to submit the bomber for State acceptance trials as its performance did not meet the requirements. However, the Il-22 did fly over Tushino during the Aviation Day display in August 1947 and the USAF allocated Type Number 10 to it. In response to an official order, Ilyushin eventually redesigned the Il-22 with two Mikulin jets, designating Il-24. In 1948, the Il-24 program was canceled while the Il-28 Beagle bomber design started.
