21st Century Toys Ultimate Soldier Xtreme Detail
The Corsair started life as the result of a U.S. Navy requirement for a carrier aircraft which could match the performance of the best land and carrier-based fighter planes. Designed in 1938 by Rex Biesel, the first prototype Corsair designated XF4U-1 first flew on 29 May 1940. The massive Corsair with its distinctive gull wing design became one of the deadliest fighters in the American arsenal in the Pacific during World War II.
This is an enormous 1:18 scale from the now defunct 21st Century Toys.
With an impressive 28" wingspan, this amazing plane features heavy plastic construction with an authentic paint scheme, accurate panel lines and surface details, realistic folding wings, and optional armament. It has a sliding canopy and detailed cockpit, positional ailerons, elevators, flaps, and rudder, retractable landing gear and a rotating propeller. Also included is a highly detailed pilot with moveable arms and legs. This model is SOLD OUT at the manufacturer and OUT OF PRODUCTION. Both plane and pilot are mint and brand new in an unopened box.
