Life-Like Combat Jeep And Trailer - With 3 GIs - (ex Revell), 1/40, 09652
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Good-
$125
Rare model from the original 1950s Revell "S" Issue molds. Very well detailed featuring rotating wheels, radio, jerry cans, detailed chassis and suspension, tilting windshield, driver/soldier and general figure, detachable trailer with rotating wheels, generator, cable reel, packs, tool box and more. Molded in olive drab plastic and with metal axles. Never started. It has been inventoried complete with all parts and includes decals and instructions. These molds must have had a very interesting history. The molds were cut in 1955 or 1956, either at Adams or by one of Revell's contractors. It appeared to be part of the Adams/Revell 1/40 line but Adams never issued the kit. UPC (Universal Power Master) had use of these molds in the 1960s are perhaps the early 1970s; however, the molds were probably in Japan as most if not all the UPC production occured there. Things get even more interesting with this Life-Like issue, which must have been after the UPC operation ceased operation. How Life-Like came across the molds is unfortunately unknown but it may have been in a bulk-purchase of molds that were located overseas. This is simply conjecture, however.

Unicraft Arado E.561 - WWII Zerstoerer / Heavy Fighter - (E561), 1/72, 056
Resin Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed NM
$45
Still factory tape sealed and costs $65 on the Unicraft website. Nicely detailed, limited-run resin kit. Although this heavy fighter design appeared to have two engines mounted in conventional nacelles, this was not the case. The design had the engines mounted in the wing root junction at the fuselage; the propellers were to be driven by shafts. This novel approach allowed the pilot to run both propellers on one engine; but with half the output per side. The configuration also produced a very aerodynamic design which reduced drag.
