Aurora Boeing B-29 Superfortress, 1/76, 372-249
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc++
$159
Rare 1960s issue retaining the same artwork as the 1956 issue. The hardbox is in amazing 'Excellent++' condition which is rare. This kit has arguably the most dramatic and fanciful B-29 artwork from the 'Golden Era' of modeling. Never started. Inventoried an the actual aircraft is complete with the decals and instructions but NOTE: missing the display stand. Responding to market information that boys wanted larger kits, Aurora introduced the B-26 followed by the B-29 and B-25, all of which sold well for many years. This is likely the 4th issue. I believe the 3rd issue is almost identical but has "Famous Fighters" in the oval logo. That would date this kit as 1963 and up till the 'Big A' box issue. Note the square 'Northern Lights' logo has been replaced with the Aurora sunburst oval logo.
Florio Flyer The Yankee Twister - 48 Inch Wingspan R/C Aircraft
Wood Model Kit, Box Condition: Exc
$120
From about 1991. A super high performance fun fly airplane that turns into an addiction after a few flights. The unconventional "V" tail make this airplane do things a straight tail never dreamed of. The Yankee Twister combines radical performance with some very conventional construction methods. Most of the assembly is of balsa, hard and ply woods. Some composite materials are utilized but hold no surprises and require no special tools or adhesives to make them work. Features factory cut ribs and numerous other factory cut balsa and plywood parts, fully formed wire landing gear and much more. With plans and a text instructions booklet. Never started. Inside, the kit is exactly as it left the factory. The small parts are still in the factory sealed bag; the larger parts were never factory sealed and some are still held together with the original rubber bands. Inventoried complete. Includes all paperwork. NOTE: this kit came in a very sturdy and thick cardboard box. It will ship in that box wrapped in thick brown paper. If you wish for it to be placed inside another box, let me know in the 'comments' section of checkout but be aware that additional shipping charges will apply and an invoice will emailed to you for that.

$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.

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.

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.
