Miniature Aircraft Vought Corsair F2G Thompson Trophy Winner - Gas Model (F4U) - 41 inch Wingspan For Free Flight Or Control Line, 1/12

Wood Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG

Sold   

Very rare and from 1949. True 1/12 scale flying or display model. Miniature Aircraft was well known for turning out the finest scale detailed models during this time - as their catalog says, 'The Worlds Finest Model Aircraft.' The kit cost around $5 when it was new- very expensive considering the most popular model aircraft were 10 cents. The limited production and sales have made all Miniature Aircraft kits rare and valuable today. The model has not been started. Includes all printed balsa sheets in 'near mint' condition, a beautiful spun aluminum cowling, clear vacuform canopy (in excellent condition and not yellow), rubber main and tail wheels with metal hubs, all spars, leading/training edges and strip stock, stock sheet wood, die-cut hardwood firewall, hardwood dowels, metal wire, color insignia, black and white instrument panel (on the plans), very large full-size scale plans that included text instructions and a number of detail drawings that leave nothing to chance. The plans are 'very good++' with typical yellowing and a few small edge tears but nothing major. The box top and bottom tray are all original and complete. Amazingly, the box top has four solid non-split corners and light general wear. The lower box (or tray) is also in good condition.

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG

Sold   

Finely molded in dark yellow and clear and features separately molded rudder, elevators and ailerons, cockpit and figures and rotating prop and wheels. This kit has never been started. Inventoried 100% complete with all parts, decals and instructions. Frog is considered the father of injection molded model kits. The Lines Brothers opened Frog in 1932, capitalizing on the fever caused by Lindberg's solo transatlantic flight. Almost overnight the western populations became 'Air-Minded', and anything aviation was in high demand. Frog created a quality line of stick and tissue rubber powered aircraft and gliders as well as innovative ready-to-fly rubber powered aircraft that required no assembly. The box even contained a built-in rubber motor winder and fuselage holder. Model airplane flight competitions were popular in Great Britain, and one category was 'Rise Off the Ground', or ROG. By changing this to 'Flies Right Off the Ground', the FROG name was born. In 1936 Frog created a line of injection molded plastic models, the first such kit line in the world (Hawk sold a line of injection molded aircraft models in 1934 but they were factory assembled and painted). Named 'Penguin' after the bird that does not fly, the kits were innovative beyond the means of production. At a time when models were simply built by wingspan, the Penguin line was a constant 1/72 scale. Furthermore, a large 1/72 Short S.30 Empire class flying boat contained a full interior and lights! A line of accessories such as AA guns, tractors, hanger, ambulance, sound locator, searchlights and lighting kits were quickly added to the line. WWII caused a pause in production. After the war the box color changed from silver to green, and Penguin kits were also marketed in the USA. Production ended in 1950. Frog quickly expanded and released the Red, Orange, Black, Green, Gold Token, Spin and Comet series as well as Trail Blazers and several others. It is noteworthy that while most manufacturers in the 1940s/50 were making toy-like models, Frog attempted to make very realistic models. For example, 'detailing' kits with excessively large rivets was once very popular. Frog ignored this trend and continued to mold aircraft with fine panel lines and no rivets. As a result, Frog kits can be built into very realistic replicas. Production ended in the late 1970s, but Frog molds are still in use around the world.

Airfix RMS Queen Elizabeth Ocean Liner, 1/600, 06201-9

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: Good-

Sold   

The famous Queen Elizabeth was the largest liner in the world when launched in 1938. She saw extensive service during WWII as a troop transport. After the war, she and the original Queen Mary formed the backbone of Cunard Atlantic Service in unparalleled luxury. Some customers favored the Queen Elizabeth for her modern lines and more modern interior fittings. She was supposed to be on display in the USA on the opposite shore of the Queen Mary, but buyers never materialized. While serving as a 'College Ship' she burned in Hong Kong Harbor where she was scrapped, but only after appearing in a James Bond film as a MI-6 hide-out. Well done full-hull model with good details. The kit has never been started. The parts are still in the internal factory sealed bags and includes decals and instructions.
