Plastic Model Kit
Sold
SALE!! Includes all three AMT black metal chassis original dealer promotional models. None are perfect. The friction motors are gone. The '58 has some warping, all original paint with light age foxing and is 100% complete. The 57 has zero warping which is rare. It is complete, has 'good' chrome and could use a good cleaning. The '56 has metal bumpers and is 100% complete. There is very little warping. The clear is 'very good' on all three but can use cleaning. The tires are almost like new - if they were played with, it was not for long. All three models have some of the fine trim (door handles, trim, etc) correctly and very neatly adult painted. The quality is good enough to pass for factory paint.

Revell Convair B-36 Giant Bomber - Pre-'S' Issue, 1/184, H205-98
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: NM-
Sold
1954 issue of this classic kit. Molded in the correct gloss silver and clear and with the famous clear 'Revelving Swivel Base.' The box is in 'near mint-' condition and has perfect color and gloss, four solid corners, no creases, fading or rips, no price tags or tag marks and no tape or marks (other than the factory sealing tape). The things keeping it from being 'near mint' or 'mint' are a slight discoloration to the left of the "C" in Convair, some very light wear and a very small (5mm by 2mm stain) on the long lower side. The kit has never been started. Inside it is like new. The small parts are still factory sealed in the small clear bag and the parts that were never sealed have been inventoried complete including decals and instructions. Instructions and decals are both in 'near mint' condition with age yellowing as the only flaw. This model has an interesting history. The first issue came out in the 'short' hardbox that had the full version of this artwork with a port and ocean scene in the background. The first version also had the one-piece stand arm and the instructions that reflected that. The second issue had the same artwork, but with a completely different background that gave better contrast. There may be a 'one-piece' stand arm version in this revised artwork, but I have yet to see one. After this is was issued in the "Air Power" artwork in many countries.

Sold
Still factory sealed. This is the 1968 release of this kit, which may have only been issued twice. The Boeing SST was modeled here in the second (-200) variant which still had the swing-wing design which proved impractical in this aircraft. The damaging effects of sonic booms over population centers ultimately contributed to the cancellation of the project. Nicely molded with all recessed panel lines.
