(Sorry, out of stock...SOLD for $40.00) RARE "Boeing P-12E" Kit, by Matchbox. A classic, out of production 1/72 scale model kit from 1983 by the greatest name in toydom! The Boeing P-12E served as the primary fighter of the U.S. Army Air Corps in the early 1930s, and it remained in service in numerous roles until the early 1940s. It was the last wooden-winged, biplane fighter produced by Boeing and used by the U.S. military. Mr. Pop Top loves the brightly-colored planes of the peacetime between the great wars. The large quantity of P-12E's purchased by the Army Air Corps in the 30's (and F4B4's by the Navy) helped to establish Boeing as an important aircraft manufacturer and to sustain the firm through the economic hardships of the Great Depression. This kit is MINT-IN-BOX UNOPENED and FACTORY-SEALED! Out of stock.
