Hobby Master

This latest Hobby Master is loaded with hot new items! With 17 models to choose from, be it a World War II-era fighter, a Vietnam War jet, or an advanced, 21st century aircraft, there is definitely something for all collectors!

 

Some of our favorites this time include a large, 1/32 scale F6F-3 Hellcat flown by 10-victory ace Lt. Richard E. Stambook in the Pacific Theater of WWII; a cutting-edge Lockheed Martin F-35A Lightning II; and a Douglas C-54A wearing a beautiful “Flying Tiger Line” livery.

 

The definite eye-catcher today, however, is the Signature Series RF-4C Phantom II with a name plate autographed by Weapons Systems Officer John Stiles of the 14th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron stationed at Udorn during the Vietnam War. With 350 produced, this one is sure to go quick! This Phantom II is particularly unique because it was destroyed in January 1972 by the MiG-21 flown by Lt. Nguyen Hong My, who that same month was shot down by Major Dan Cherry – both Nguyen and Cherry contributed their signatures to models announced earlier this year!
