Megow 1/43 F7F Tigercat Redi-Carved, SE-1 plastic model kit

1/43 SE-1 Megow F7F Tigercat Redi-Carved

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good+

Very rare and dated 1946. At the very end, Megow pulled out all the stops and competed in the 'highly prefabricated' and expensive segment of the model airplane segment. The result was fantastic. This is a large-scale solid wood kit with a 14.5 inch wingspan. It features completely carved balsa fuselage that even has the cockpit cut out, completely machine-finished hardwood engine nacelles/gear housings (full length nacelle behind the engine), excellent profile cut wings, horizontal and vertical stabilizers, fully formed nose and main wheels, vacuform canopy (still like new), two injection-molded plastic three-blade propellers, wood and metal stock as required, color decals, two glass bottles, one of Megow Glue and one of Megow Dope (both still good!), a paint brush, step-by-step, heavily illustrated building instructions, very large full size three view plans including numerous templates and airfoil views and even a 'Plastic Wood' color advertising brochure. Even the internal factory presentation cardboard is present. The kit has never been started. The small parts are still in the factory sealed bag. The other have been inventoried complete including plans/instructions and decals. Please NOTE that two prop blades are cleanly broken off at the hub but are present.
