1/48 Northrop HL-10 Resin Model

Here is a rather obscure subject in a popular scale that will make cold war era aircraft model builders happy. This is a press release from the gang at Fantastic Plastic:

”Finally finished the prototype build of our upcoming 1:48 Northrop HL-10 lifting body. (Yes, it’s seen in the opening shots of the famous Six Million Dollar man intro…but it’s not the one that crashes. That’s the M2-F2 — which we’ll also have out later this year.)

I plan to start offering the kit to people on our reservations list, which now totals about 100. So it’s going to be a while before everyone who wants one can get one.”

Kits will sell for $80.00 each (USD), plus shipping.
