1/64 551-198 Lindberg Remote Control Convair B-58 Hustler
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Poor++
Rare kit from the late 1950s. First and only release. In the Cellovison box with trading card on the back. Very unusual kit with full remote control base. As the 'Pilot' moves the control stick on the remote base, the bomber changes pitch and roll, and the elevons and rudder move to reflect the proper attitude! In addition to the Remote Control, there are numerous operating features and good detail - retracting main and nose gear with opening/closing gear doors, opening cockpits with interior detail, ejection capsules and crew of three, movable control surfaces and four detailed engines with removable cowls. This model has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, special stand, control wires and linkage, decals and instructions all in excellent condition. NOTE: Box is heavily damaged- typical of the thin Cellovision box. It is missing part of the left end as shown and has clear tape on it.
