Large Soviet helicopter with a unique gondola below the cockpit for the crane operator. KVZ was the logo used by this East German kit manufacturer from 1969 to 1973. During this time, some fantastic Cold War kits were produced of Russian Aeroflot Airliners and Military Helicopters and Aircraft. Never started. Inventoried and NOTE: missing 1/2 of the clear gondola and 1 small wheel. Otherwise complete with all other parts, decals and instructions present.

Includes the following three warp-free parts ONLY: high-gloss black body, black chassis/underpan and green-tinted clear windshield insert (which includes front and rear windshields and all side windows). Nothing else is included. These are from the original Jo-Han molds but are likely reproductions made in the 1990s. They came with a collection of promo bodies, windshields and chrome parts.

Arii Mitsubishi Nell L3 M1 Nippon-Go - (ex LS), 1/72, 53015
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM
$22
Still factory sealed and from the high-quality LS molds. Features all fine recessed panel lines, cockpit detail with crew, retractable landing gear, rotating wheels and propellers, separately molded ailerons and more. Includes decals for the Nippon-Go Round The World Flight. May include more decals like the LS issue did, but I cannot confirm that since it is factory sealed.
Aurora 1920 Monroe Special Indianapolis 500 Winner - (ex Best), 1/30, 521-69
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$129
Very rare kit dated 1958. The superb box art was painted by Monaghan, who did all of the Aurora Indy 500 winners. This kit is from Best molds. Aurora purchased these molds just for the Indianapolis 500 Winners and made only one issue. Molded in a beautiful gloss blue with real rubber tires, spoke wheels and includes a crew of two and some interior detail. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Even the original factory tissue packing paper is present. Please note that the box displays better than the 'good' grade but is rated as such because the upper long side has numerous small, dark spots. These spots are on the outside of the tray (lower box) also. Decals and instructions are only 'good' quality. This famous car is directly tied to one of racings greatest names, Louis Chevrolet. Louis and his brother He and his brother Arthur came to American in about 1905 and immediately began racing; Louis alone won 10 National Championship races between 1909 and 1919. Louis and Arthur joined forces with William Crapo 'Billy' Durant to form the Chevrolet Car Company in 1911. However, few people got along with Durant and the Chevrolet brothers were no exception. By 1915 they had sold their stock and moved on to Indianapolis. They immediately went back into racing and built their own cars. However, they were not allowed to use the Chevrolet name. The unofficial Chevrolet team was the first to achieve consecutive Indianapolis 500 wins. The first is this kit, the 1920 Monroe Special driven by younger brother Gaston Chevrolet and in 1921 in a Frontenac Special driven by Tommy Milton.
Revell US Army Hawk Surface-to-Air Guided Missile, 1/40, H548-129
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good+
$185
Very rare 1963 kit which is the second and last issue. The artwork is the same as the 'S' kit but the box artwork on the sides is different. Features 3 removable Hawk missiles, 4 man crew, elevating and swiveling launcher, rotating rubber tires, control panel with opening hatches, separate radar scope equipment and more. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions present. The box has excellent color and gloss but has the price tag pull shown at the upper right. The pull extends down a very small amount (1/2" x 1/4") on the right short side as well.
Jo-Han Olds 442 Super Funny Car - 1968 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442 / Stock / Custom / Funny Car, 1/25, C2368-200
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$850
Incredibly rare one-and-only original issue and ever rarer in never started and complete condition. Features a huge number of optional parts for stock, custom or funny car versions. Funny car version builds up a full tube frame just like the real thing; all versions have detailed engines, full drivelines and complete interiors. Molded in white, clear, red-tinted clear, chrome and with rubber tires. The kit has never been started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. Decals are flat, intact and in amazing 'near mint' condition and the instructions are also 'near mint'. The chrome plating is in exceptional 'near mint' condition. Clear parts are like new. I did not see any tire burns; so if there are any, they were so small that I missed them. The box is graded as 'good'. It is 100% intact and has four solid corners and no repairs. There is no fading, no rips, tears or missing litho. There are no price tags or tape and no marks from either. Imperfections include edge and corner wear as shown, a slightly concave vertical section on the far left side, scuffs near the middle top, light scuffs on the right short side and lighter general wear as shown. NOTE: this kit will only be shipped double-boxed and insured.
Monogram Curtiss P-36A Test Shot - Bagged, 1/72, PA145
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good
$36
This kit came from the collection of one of Monogram's finest and talented Chief Designers, the man who created the original B-52 kit, B-17, B-24J, P-36A, P-39 Airacobra, P-61 Black Widow, DH Mosquito, at least one if not all of the 1/8 scale Ford cars, A-1E Skyraider and numerous other famous kits. In his collection were boxes (usually Four-Star armor that had been damaged on the box-assembly machine) labeled 'TEST SHOTS' and some with his name on it. After designing the model, he was still responsible for the entire program, at least up to the point of mass production. Test Shots were made near the end of the design process for the Chief Designer of that kit to inspect; if something was wrong, he ordered changed. If not, he would clear the kit for production. This is one of those kits. Ever notice that all Monogram P-36A are always molded in silver? Well, not this time! This test shot is molded in brown and clear plastic and is a pre-first issue, probably 1966. It has never been started. The model is inventoried with all parts, decals and instruction present. The instructions and decal may have come with the test shot for his approval or they may have been added later. I have included them because they were in the same 'TEST SHOT' box as the kit.

Aurora 1913 Mercer Raceabout - Old Timers Issue, 1/16, 572-198
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM
$125
Still factory sealed with a very short split at the top right long side. Dated 1961. This big 1/16 scale model, along with the other 'Old Timers' represented a significant leap forward in quality for Aurora. It features a rolling chassis build like actual automobile, full suspension, transaxle and driveline, complete exhaust, detailed interior and more. Usually molded in gloss ivory, gloss black and with brass plated parts and real rubber tires. Aurora was renowned for turning a profit and for keeping expenses down. In researching new kit subjects, they came upon a forgotten jewel - the Hudson Miniatures line of 1/16 scale wooden kits. Hudson had discontinued this line due to lack of sales of wooden kits. But the Hudson models were second to none in quality, research and documentation. Aurora was quick to realize this and used the research and layout from these kits to create the subjects for this 'Old Timers' series. It is fortunate for us that they did, because in most cases this is the only injection molded kit of these rare and classic early automobiles.
Aurora Mace TM-76 Guided Missile, 1/48, 130-79
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good++
$189
1958 'Famous Fighters' first and only release. This large 1/48 scale model of this early guided missile is molded in gloss white plastic and includes the booster engine & clear triangle-based display stand. Never started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. The box has wear as shown and hobby shop stamp on the top.
Aurora Curtiss Hawk P-6E, 1/43, 116-130
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM
$64
Still factory sealed and in amazing, investment-grade 'Near Mint' condition. The kit is dated 1958, but this is clearly a later issue as the Aurora logo does not say 'Famous Fighters' in the border and has no sunburst - due to the 130 price extension, it is most likely from 1961 or '62. This was a fine kit for that time and still a favorite 'Classic Builder' today. It features movable rudder, elevators & ailerons, cockpit with pilot, seat, instrument panel, gun sight and feet stirrups, auxiliary gas tank and rotating propeller and wheels. Usually molded in gloss dark green and clear, but I cannot confirm that since it is factory sealed.
Aurora Martin B-26 Marauder - Famous Fighters Of All Nations, 1/46, 371-259
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$269
Very rare first issue from the early 1950s. When Aurora moved to the West Hempstead plant, they planned a series of very large scale bombers. All kits released up to this time had been small. Aurora's instincts were correct, and the B-26, B-25 and B-29 were a big sales success. This box art was done by Jim Cox and was only used for about one year, making it very rare. The kit has never been started and is inventoried 100% complete with all parts, large clear stand, instructions and decals. The box has great color, four solid corners with no repairs, no creasing, no stains, fading or writing, no cardboard tears or rips, no price tags and no tape beyond the factory sealing tape. There is light general wear and please note that the box displays slightly better than the 'Excellent' grade but it is rated as such because there is light general wear not visible in the photo and a 1.5" x 3/8" factory tape tear on the top long side.
