RGronovius Posted September 10, 2010 Report Posted September 10, 2010 I bought one a very long time ago, but it never survived my trip out of Texas. I recently bought one on eBay real cheap and was wondering if anyone ever built up this thing.
ewahl Posted September 10, 2010 Report Posted September 10, 2010 Hi, Rob, I have this kit, but it is still on the shelf in a pristine box unbuilt. I always thought of this imaginary B-2 as the final piece in a Collection (as in National Contest) of Northrop's Improbable Flight Line. All in 1/72 scale, there would be the AMT XB-35, AMT YB-35, AMT YB-49, Testors B-2, and Revell "B-2" for the required five items. A sixth would be the Sword N9M. Go for it! Ed
RGronovius Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Posted September 11, 2010 Thanks, I built it, probably in a weekend back in the early 1990s and hanged it from my new (in 1992) stepsons' bedroom. They loved it and eventually got it down, played with it, broke it and trashed it. I've always like the near-Sci-fi aircraft kits like Testors F-19 and MiG-37 Ferret(?). The best thing about them is that the build is never incorrect or inaccurate. I was wondering if anyone remembers this being a putty monster or a nice build. It's been so long for me that I just remember not painting it and I doubt I added decals.
philp Posted September 13, 2010 Report Posted September 13, 2010 Dick Engar did one several years ago but no info on how the build went. But there is this one from over at the Whatifmodelers forum. http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php/topic,26618.0.html
