Lindberg Lockheed F-80C Shooting Star - Necomisa Issue, 1/98, 426
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
$28
Very rare joint Lindberg-Necomisa issue that was made in Mexico; Lindberg shipped the molds to Necomisa in the 1970s and the kits were made in Mexico. The model is originally from the early 1960s and the original Ray Gaedke artwork was wisely retained. The original molds were cut by Trim Model Products in the early to mid 1950s. Trim sold them in bags or in hardboxes, then sold the molds to Lindberg in the early 1960s. I have never seen a post-70s USA issue of this kit, so perhaps the molds remained in Mexico. Inside, the kit has never been started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and the instructions are on the back of the box along with a Necomisa full-color trading card for this aircraft.

Includes a display stand and USAF decals. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. Lindberg is a company with a fascinating history The original 'Lindberg Line' stretches back to the 1930s when Paul Lindberg drew plans for famous modeling magazines and marketed his balsa wood 'stick and tissue' by urging dealers to carry the '...Complete Lindberg Line'. After the war, Lindberg and Olsen had a strong hand in early United States injection molded kit development. Please see the article located on this website about early USA plastic kit manufacturers.
