Lincoln PBY-5A Catalina - Bagged, 1/110
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed
$79
Very, very rare. Still factory staple sealed; this is a bagged kit with the factory paper header.

The model features recessed and raised surface detail, clear blisters, windows and cockpit window, retracting floats and more. There is a "Revell 'S' Style" base (but it's not the Revell base). What is more puzzling is that the artwork on the paper header is a copy of the Aurora first-issue PBY artwork. Please note that the header is damaged and missing some of the right hand section as shown.

Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. The short-lived Whip-Fly series seemed like a good idea...at first.
