MPC Me-109 With Crewmen - (Bf109 G), 1/72, 2-0104
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed Exc
$22
Still factory sealed and from about 1972. This kit is from quality Airfix molds and includes four crew members as shown. MPC and Airfix had an interesting marketing history in the United States. Initially, MPC started marketing the entire Airfix line as 'Craftmaster' kits in the USA. Eventually they placed the MPC logo on the box tops but still had 'Craft Master' under the logo. The final chapter was MPC removing 'Craftmaster' all together and only having their own logo on the kits. From that point on, MPC was innovative in how the marketed the Airfix kits. They had many unique issues; some had wild custom parts and decals to match; others had extra ground crew. Others simply had special decals from historical aircraft. The most famous issue was the "Profile Series" which contained a quality Airfix kit and three choices of decals and all three aircraft illustrated in color on the box top.
Aurora Martin B-26 Marauder, 1/46, 371-259
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$225
Very rare first issue from the early 1950s. When Aurora moved to the West Hempstead plant, they planned a series of very large scale bombers. All kits released up to this time had been small. Aurora's instincts were correct, and the B-26, B-25 and B-29 were a big sales success. This box art was done by Jim Cox and was only used for about one year, making it very rare. The kit has never been started and is inventoried 100% complete with the original tissue paper, all parts, large clear stand, instructions and decals.

Sanwa Boeing B-17E Fortress Bomber, 1/145, 136
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$145
Very, Very Rare. Early, colorful issue from the late 1950s. The kit is dated by the 'Sanwa Plastic' logo, which was normally used in the late 1950s up to 1960. Very nicely detailed for that time with fine (and sparse, not overdone) surface detail, opening bomb bay doors, working ailerons, elevators and rudder, rotating propellers and full landing gear. Molded in gloss dark green, black and clear. Includes factory glue tube. Inside, the model is factory new - all the parts and decals are still in the factory sealed clear bags. The decals are flat and in amazing 'near mint+' condition and the instructions in 'near mint' condition. Sanwa was one of Japan's earliest post-WWII kit producers, making model kits in the 1950s; some sources say 1955. Kits were marketed under Sanwa and Tokyo Plamo, with the general consensus being the the later logo came out around 1960 or later. Production ended in 1964, making all Sanwa kits rare and collectible. The entire line was extensive. It included very small scale tanks (some that were motorized), battleships in three scales with the larger ones motorized with dual prop drive, slot cars, civil sport boats and an electric outboard, a full line of hand gun models that actually shot plastic bullets, two fighter groups and bomber groups (probably Monogram), several different lines of scale aircraft, missile kits, scale (static) car models of early Japanese automobiles, at least 7 flying model aircraft that had electric and rubber motors, a 'Super Control Stand' P-51 that moved with a joystick and had an electric propeller and sound unit, two different lighthouses and a windmill, an air cushion boat, motor cycles, a diving submarine (electric) and a working (rubber band) George Washington Class SSBN and even a garden tractor with an electric motor. Just before going out of business, Sanwa issued some kits in conjunction with the 1964 Tokyo Olympic games - these kits even included a copy of an Olympic medal.

Planet Models Heinkel P.1078B Night Fighter - German WWII Jet Project - (P1078 B), 1/72, 169
Resin Model Kit, Box Condition: VG+
$54
Rare. This is a limited edition model that is beautifully cast in high definition resin. Features a full cockpit, fully enclosed gear wells, strengthened landing gear struts and fine recessed panel lines. Never started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions. The evolution of the Heinkel's P.1078A was redesigned as the asymmetrical P.1078B, a tailless interceptor with 40-degree wing sweep, one turbojet engine and a single-seat cockpit. In addition to having no horizontal or vertical stabilizers or control surfaces, the fuselage was a unique dual-gondola arrangement in which the cockpit was on the left while the right gondola held the armament and radar equipment in the night fighter version. The jet intake was to be between the two gondolas at the front of the fuselage. One other design feature of note was the nose leg landing gear was situated under the starboard side gondola. The airframe was designed for a single HeS 011 series turbojet engine while armament was to be 2 x 30mm MK 108 cannons. The onboard radar would have allowed the P.1078B to perform night fighter duties. Projected performance was a maximum speed of 637 mph. The design had advanced to the construction phase, but the end of the war stopped that so the aircraft did not reach flying status.
