UPC 1/50 McDonnell F4H-1 (F-4C) Phantom II - Bagged, 5090-298 plastic model kit

1/50 5090-298 UPC McDonnell F4H-1 (F-4C) Phantom II - Bagged

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: No Box

Bagged kit - there is no box. The box is shown for reference only! This kit represents somewhat of a mystery. We know that UPC did not make any of their own tooling, but the mold origin of this kit is unknown. In an apparent cost saving measure, the large box re-uses the same Scott Edison box art from the 1/72 UPC F-4 which is an ex-Hasegawa kit. The dramatic box art claims this is a F-4C; however, the instructions state that it is an F-4H-1. Since they are a copy of the original manufacturers instructions, I believe the instructions. The kit is interesting for the level of detail. It includes the internal fuselage fuel tanks and two detailed engines. The cockpit features ejection seats, two pilots, side instrument panels, control stick, main panels and opening canopies. Rudders, ailerons, flaps and elevators all move and the wings fold as well. There are internal wing fuel tanks. The landing gear retracts and extends and all gear doors close also. The nose can be removed to display a detailed radar package. A wide choice of wing and fuselage loadouts is provided, with numerous AIM-7 Sparrow missiles, iron bombs and a centerline drop tank. There is one large decal sheet with two decal choices - 'FJ-199' USAF as shown on the box art, and a US Navy aircraft from VF-102 USS Enterprise. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions.
