ha ha !
do you have more like this ?


Weaver

No more of those, no. They're from a small box of stuff left over after I gave up modelling some 25 years ago. There was some unfinished sci-fi armour as well:

Oh my  :o :o Wonderfull
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

The main feature is "Total length: 18 inches / 46cm" (frightening for me, but wonderful for other ones...) :thumbsup:
[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

Isn't that the business?  :thumbsup: :bow:

I never thought ANYone would kit the 1186C!  :o

It seems you'll need to build your own trolly to carry the darn thing, but that could be fun in its own right.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Build your own trolley?

Are you kidding?

That thing will levitate itself simply due to its own sheer awesomeness!

And, yes, I never thought I'd see an actual kitting of that bird.  I know one guy scratched his own but not a commercially available kitting!

But, what to do for the cockpit?  I think it'll have to be a spares bin dive to make it sufficiently busy.  I was thinking of picking up an old Revell X-3 but that's not in 72nd and Renaud's casting is likely to make the interior too small to accommodate it without a lot of grinding.  So, spares it is then.
Wherever you go, there you are!

Dont be impressed by the length because the wingspan is relatively small.

The pilot plane is made with two halves, thin ones,
there is one clear canopy and one resin
(will need to drill the windows to make the frame if you prefer that rather to use only the clear one)

windows for the second guy are drilled, but will need some clear sheet
(easy, no curves)

So make a detailed cockpit is probably more simple than assemble the mother plane /missile think perfectly.

Maybe the trailor will comes later -maybe, at the moment I dont have the doc-.

That`s 108 feet in the real world. Where do you put 108 foot plane on an aircraft carrier, even one as big as the USS united States?

Park them on the deck, it says so in the book about all those madcap schemes. They weren't coming back anyway as the combination wasn't designed to land anywhere, even ashore.
