Heller Etendard IV Type M, 1/50, 500
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG
$36
Large 1/50 scale Etendard IV. Nicely molded older kit features fine raised panel detail, cockpit, folding wings, working arresting gear, optional position landing gear and speed brakes and real rubber tires. Includes drop tanks and underwing weapons as well. This is the second issue of the very rare 'operating kit' of the Etendard IV. The original issue had automatic speed brakes and retractable landing gear. The model used a complex series of 6 cogs and gears with wire springs and twine to make functioning landing gear and speed brakes. When you lowered the arresting (tail) hook, the landing gear doors opened and the nose and main wheels extended. When you raised the arresting hook, the landing gear retracted and the doors closed. Furthermore, when you pulled out the parachute release at the tail, the speed brakes lowered. When you closed it, the speed brakes closed. Please note that although this model is from those molds, it does not have those action features - only the ones that I listed. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions. The decals are in amazing 'Excellent++' condition but the instructions have bug damage, mainly along the folds and edges. They are still perfectly useful for assembly purposes.
