There were two proposed versions of this plane: One with three nuclear engines plus two conventional underwing jets, and one with four nuke motors but no conventional jets. We're doing the three-nuke/two jet version. Scale will be 1:144. The kit is being mastered and cast by Anigrand Craftswork. Expect the MSRP to be around $100.00. (The finished model will be 14 inches long.) Taking reservations now at [email protected]! http://fantastic-plastic.com/convair_nx-2.html V.P.

general melchett Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Now that is great news, always been interested in this version of the 'atomic powered bomber' concept. Definitely see one winging its way here and look good alongside their earlier rescaled/updated version of the old 1/288th scale Hawk XAB-1 Beta-1.

SpeedyGonzales Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 May be interesting but a better built model could be more inviting, I think 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how their stuff is. Really cool subjects but really super expensive for the scale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
