1/48 80-69 Aurora SNJ Trainer
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: VG++
Rare first issue from 1956 with Jim Cox 'ground scene' artwork and the 1956-only Northern Lights rectangular logo. Aurora's subject choice here was very wise, as almost every one of our US pilots in WWII flew the SNJ or T-6 during training. Features 'good' cockpit, instructor and student pilot figures, rotating propeller and wheels, full landing gear and more. Molded in the correct gloss yellow and clear plastic. The kit has never been started and is inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. As it often happens with Aurora's 1956/57 kits (and this one), the instructions show older logo and decals do not have a stand decal. However, the clear triangle-based stand is included (not the rectangle one). Aurora began putting the 'Triangle' stands in kits well before the instructions and '56 logo were changed. It was common for Aurora to make such substitutions all the way through the 1960s as they were very conscious of waste and were determined not to throw out anything that could be used (like instructions, in this case).
