Guillows Hawker Hurricane - 16 Inch Wingspan Flying Aircraft, 506
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM
Sold
Still factory sealed; from the 1960s. One of a very popular 16.5 inch wingspan series of World War 2 stick and tissue flying kits. Includes die cut balsa parts, vacuform nose, wheels, plastic propeller, hardware, vacuform canopy, colored tissue, insignia and full size plans with detailed building instructions. Guillow's founder, Paul K. Guillow, was a WWI naval aviator. In 1926 he began producing wooden model airplane kits. His 'Shelf Models' were some of the earlier non-flying models in production. Guillow's grew during the model boom of the 1930s, and when the Depression hit the hardest, Guillow's responded with lower prices and became one of the low price leaders, frequently advertising in Model Airplane News and other leading publications. During the war, like most manufacturers, Guillow's was forced to alternative materials such as cardboard and pine. Guillow's survived the post WWII slump by creating many inexpensive profile flying rubber powered aircraft and gliders in the 1950s (along with North Pacific) which became famous - some are still available today. The stick and tissue lines have been updated with laser cut parts and are still in production as of 2016.

Hasegawa Mil Mi-24 Hind-A / Mil Mi-24 Hind-D / Mil Mi-28 Hind-E, 1/72, K21
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
Sold
SALE!! Includes all three kits but please read carefully. The Hind-A is never started and still sealed in the internal factory bags; with decals and instructions. NOTE: the Hind D and E are sold AS-IS and not inventoried. This collector was very meticulous and of his kits that I did inventory, 95% are complete. But on these two kits he cut the sprue (trees) with the part numbers still attached to each number, so the parts are loose. Because of that, I have not inventoried these kits. NOTE: he built minor sub assemblies (the cockpit and missile tubes mainly) to 'professional' quality. Again, these two kits are sold not inventoried and AS IS hence the very low price.
