North American B-25 Mitchell Doolittle Raid 40-2344 1/200 Scale Diecast Model

1:200 Scale Diecast Metal - Northrop B-25 Mitchell "02344 Doolittle Raid" - Length: 3.25" Wingspan: 4.125" This B-25 Mitchell model has a fixed landing gear, there is no display stand included and the model has not hole/slit to accommodate for one. The wheels cannot roll. The fuselage and the wings are all metal and really quite heavy. Although it is a small scale, the details are very impressive. From the photos one can see and appreciate the transparent cockpit windshield, as well as the other transparent parts on the dorsal gun position. The propellers are free to rotate and very smooth. This model has tail number 02344 which would be the plane that Lieutenant Colonel James "Jimmy" Doolittle piloted for the Doolittle Raid aka. Tokyo Raid on April 18, 1942. The maker of the model really did a good job with the model, the panel lines and details are very crisp and one can see the little dots that represent the rivets holding down the panels. This is really a "no-play" model or a "display-only" model. It is mostly metal and very heavy. It also has a number of antennas which look great but are very fragile. If you have small kids that like to play with your models, save yourself some frustration (and money) and wait till later to get a model like this one. The box is labeled as not suitable for children under 14. The box measures 5 inches by 5 inches by 2 inches.
