Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: NM-
$125
First issue dated 1956 with the incredible artwork that has made these kits so famous and valuable. The box is in amazing "Near Mint-" condition with perfect color and gloss. The only things keeping it from being mint are a tiny crease at the lower left (not even visible in the photo) and short, closed tears on the long box sides at the factory sealing tape. Features folding wings and horizontal stabilizer, rotating and elevating rear gun turret, optional position landing gear, speed brakes & escape hatch, three crew figures and more. Includes the famous clear Revell 'Globe' stand. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Instructions and decals are in 'excellent++' condition also with very light yellowing as the only flaw.

Although the USSR manufacture Yunyj Tyechinik issued their own 1/100 Tu-144, it appears that completely new molds were created by KVZ for their own kit.
Cleveland North American B-45 Tornado - 26 Inch Wingspan Flying Wooden Model, SM-175
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
$72
Rare kit from 1953. The Simplex line was designed for those who desired flying models with true scale appearance but wanted to get into the air faster. They were not 'simple' as the name implies, but they were much easier than the highly realistic, true scale and complex 1/16 scale Cleveland offerings. This kit features shaped and cut out wood parts, many sheets of quality die-cut printwood, fully finished wheels, fully formed wire main and nose landing gear struts, clear plastic bombadier's nose and pilot's canopy still in 'mint' condition and perfectly clear (not yellowed), wood stock, factory cut stringers and spars as required, covering tissue and more. Includes a large sheet of full color decals (in amazing 'near mint' condition) and Cleveland's famous full size building plans. Never started. The small parts and hardware are still in the factory sealed wax bag; all other parts are inventoried complete with decals and plans/instructions.

Renwal USS Washington Battleship BB-56, 1/500, S608-169

Late 1950s rare first issue of this very high quality, full-hull kit. Features a one piece hull, nine individually elevating 16" guns, rotating main and secondary turrets, fully detailed forward and aft island structures with radar, gun directors and range finders, individually molded 20mm guns with shields, helicopter, full rudder and propeller detail, detailed deck, flag sheet and full decals including draft markings. Never started. Inventoried and NOTE: missing one part, the #45 jackstaff. Easily made from wire or pulled sprue as it is simply a flag pole. Includes all other parts, decals and instructions. The decals are flat, 100% intact and in 'excellent' condition but the white and black colors are off-register. If you want to build the model, I recommend the superb Starfighter Decals 1/500 Cold War Cruisers which has multiple sizes of hull numbers in large quantities and much more.

Estes Apollo Saturn V Flying Scale Model, 1/100, K-36
Multimedia Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM++
$225
Still factory sealed and very rare in an amazing, investment grade 'Sealed Near Mint++' box. This is the finest K-36 issue that I have seen and it came from the stock of a long-closed hobby shop. It was never put out for sale and never saw the light of day until now. The seal is 100% intact with no splits. The colors are perfect and factory fresh. The box top has no fading or dents. All four corners are crisp and as they left the factory. There has never been any tape, stickers or price tags on this box. The box top has one very light and short (1 inch) crease at the lower right corner; however, it is so indistinguishable that it did not show up in the photo. The box bottom does have one minor crease that looks like it happened at the factory. This is the Saturn V that is 43.25 inches high and 3.93 inches in diameter. Recommended engine is the D12-3 or three C6-3; includes Technical Report TR-6 on Engine Clustering. Please NOTE that this kit must be shipped along (with no other kits that could damage it) and in a double box to preserve the condition.

Very rare kit of French manufacture.

Early issue hardbox. Legendary AMT 3 in 1 kit can be built stock, custom or competition. George Barris served as the AMT consultant for the customized kits, and designed and built the 'Movie Car of the Year' for the movie Villa Riviera. This model will build the stock, Barris Custom or Barris' movie version. Model includes numerous optional parts for suspension, motor, exterior and interior as well as custom decals. Includes a special clear display stand also. Molded in white, clear and chrome with rubber tires and metal axles. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, vinyl material, decals and instructions. NOTE: box looks better than the 'fair' grade but it is graded that low because there is a large stain and box damage to the lower left long side and short left side of the box top. Additionally, there is identical damage to the tray (lower box) and I would grade it 'fair-.' NOTE: the instructions have only very minor bug damage but the decals have significant damage and are only 70% intact (about 30% destroyed).
