Lindberg Russian Jet Fighter Mig-19 With Tow Tractor - Cellovision Issue, 1/48, 561-98
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$65
Very rare 1950s Cellovision issue. On the back of the box, the clear window is intact and the trading card is in 'very good++' condition. This is a large scale (1/48) 'theoretical' Mig-19. It was removed from production well before it's time because it soon became obvious that this aircraft never existed in this configuration. However, Aurora made one almost just like it; so it is believed that they both used the same faulty magazine drawing as the basis for both models. Includes a very well detailed tow tractor with driver. The aircraft is molded in silver and the tractor in yellow. Never started and inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions.
