Well molded and 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. This is a very rare model from the original 1950s Revell "S" Issue molds. The box displays beautifully and has exceptional color and gloss as shown but is graded as 'very good++' because there is light creasing as shown, general light and even wear and edge wear, especially at the upper left. The other parts have been inventoried complete with decals, instructions and instructions present. The metal and electrical hardware for "Jet Sounds" are still factory sealed. Molded in the correct dark green and clear. This model is highly detailed and features 207 parts, a crew of three, detailed cockpit, elevating and traversing rear turret, opening and closing bomb bay doors, operating wing flaps, operating spoilers, optional position entry hatch and landing gear, and optional parts to display one nacelle open to show the jet engine and of course battery-powered realistic Jet Sound.
At this point (1969), Monogram had ceased making 'Monoglue', so at this point the B-52 presentation cardboard had no glue. Under the frame, all cardboard presentation is still in 'near mint' condition. This kit contains the yellow frame in very rare 'excellent' condition and the cello is intact.
While at your local hobby shop, you could lift the box top off and underneath was a fantastic display, all sealed by a yellow cardboard framed sheet of clear cellophane. This is the 2nd release of this kit and the last with rare 'Jet Engine Sound.' These models were designed & packaged with a major selling point - an internal parts display that could be seen in the store by potential buyers. It is even rarer to find this kit with all the cardboard and correct paperwork present. Rare 1969 issue has Vietnam-style boxart on a high-gloss box.
