SS Rex Ocean Liner - With ScaleDecks Wood Deck - Italian Line / Mid To Late 1930s

Resin Model Kit,   Box Condition: Sealed Mint

$669   

Finally, the Pride of the Italian Line in 1/350 scale! The SS Rex is from the same team that brought you the 1/350 SS Normandie Ocean Liner. This four year project is a 100% new model and represents the Rex in her glory years of the mid 1930s. All design work was done in CAD by Ken Friend, a master modeler, designer and builder of experimental engines and test equipment and an engineer who specialized in CAD/CAM/CAE Systems Management and Implementation. All of the smaller parts are printed on ultra-high resolution 3D SLA resin printers. These parts meet and often exceed what is possible with injection molded plastic. Only the larger parts (hull, deck pieces and funnels)are cast resin. These are pressure-cast from de-aired molds to minimize air bubbles. The Italian Line advertised that "The Southern Route Is the Lido Deck Route." By virtue of avoiding the stormy and cold North Atlantic, travelers experienced a true outdoor lifestyle. The Rex was intentionally designed for this. For this model, extensive research and time was spent capturing the exact look of the colorful 1st and 2nd Class Aft Pool Areas- from the changing room & showers, grab rope on the pool, pool slide, stairs & diving boards, tables with umbrellas, recessed (covered) 1st Class Restaurant/Lounge and more. Because of the superior performance of 3D Printing, over 90% of the usual PE (photoetched) metal parts are now 3D printed resin. This is a vast improvement as they are no longer flat, but are true to the shape of the prototype. This also makes for a nearly complete model "out-of-the-box." Includes a real wood deck from Scaledecks. NOTE: railings are the only parts not included with the model shown. They are not required to complete the kit, however 1/350 railings are sold by a vast number of aftermarket sources. I will refer all buyers to the sources that I believe work the best with the kit.   more info >

AMT 1966 Ford Falcon Sport Coupe 3 In 1 Customing Kit, 1/25, 5126-150

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good-

$265   

First and only issue from late 1965. Very, very rare original issue. Even rarer because it is untouched inside - never started and 100% complete. Features nicely detailed chassis and engine, opening hood, full interior, many optional parts and much more. Molded in gloss white plastic, clear, red-tinted clear, chrome plate and with the correct rubber narrow whitewall tires and metal axles. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried 100% complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Decals are in perfectly flat 'excellent' condition; so are the instructions. NOTE, there are tire burns as noted: Custom hood (repairable), custom hood scoop (repairable) and a small, shallow one on the front seat near the top. It is an easy fix because it is on a flat area and the burn does not effect the fine detailing. The box is solid and intact but is graded only 'good-' because of the bug damage on the left edge and upper left edge/top long side. This is th only bug damage on the box; the rest of the box has general wear only.

Very rare kit and ever rarer in never started and complete condition. This is a very good model of a great subject. It features detailed chassis with torsion bars suspension, optional position lowering blocks (for stock or custom), full interior and a host of optional parts such as fender skirts, tach, floor shift, exhaust dump pipes, fender mirrors, chrome horns, dual aerials, louvers, continental kit and more. Molded in light yellow, chrome plate, clear and with rubber wide white-wall tires, metal axles and metal body screws. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Decals are in amazing 'near mint' condition and the instructions are 'excellent+'. The box is only 'good' because there is bug litho damage which is centered mainly around the edges; there is more on the lower long side than on the top. Please NOTE that on these and other early Jo-Han car kits that the decals pictured on the side are not always the decals that Jo-han placed inside. Jo-Han used more than one generic decal sheet and some of them for at least two years. It also seems that in the early years they used about whatever was laying around, probably as a cost-saving measure. The decal sheet in this kit has does match some of the transfers shown on the box side picture but not all of them.
