1/72 2-0104 MPC Me-109 With Crewmen - (Bf109 G)
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed Exc
Still factory sealed and from about 1972. This kit is from quality Airfix molds and includes four crew members as shown. MPC and Airfix had an interesting marketing history in the United States. Initially, MPC started marketing the entire Airfix line as 'Craftmaster' kits in the USA. Eventually they placed the MPC logo on the box tops but still had 'Craft Master' under the logo. The final chapter was MPC removing 'Craftmaster' all together and only having their own logo on the kits. From that point on, MPC was innovative in how the marketed the Airfix kits. They had many unique issues; some had wild custom parts and decals to match; others had extra ground crew. Others simply had special decals from historical aircraft. The most famous issue was the "Profile Series" which contained a quality Airfix kit and three choices of decals and all three aircraft illustrated in color on the box top.
