1/32 US Aircraft Weapons 2 (for A-1J) Zoukei-Mura #SWS-07M01 Factory Sealed MISB

Description: I have to clear some space on my shelves, so I need to part with some of my collection. The Douglas A-1 Skyraider was a WWII design that made a name for itself as a Close Air Support aircraft during the Korean Conflict and the Vietnam War. It first flew with the US Navy, but the USAF had their own version. The Spad or Flying Dump Truck could carry a whole bunch of ordnance and drop it exactly where it needed to go. Zoukei-Mura developed a fantastic A-1J kit in their Super Wing Series but left off the impressive weapons load that it could carry. Instead, they created this weapon set as part of their Super Wing Options line that includes many other accessories, such as photo etch sets, resin figures, metal landing gear struts, decals, etc. If you don’t have their Skyraider kit, I may still have one listed (SWS-07). I couldn’t find any listings on eBay for this set (rare and hard-to-find), but as a Top Rated Plus US Seller, I have it in stock and can reliably ship this kit very quickly. Here are some of the details about this convenient set that I found from around the web: The Zoukei-Mura website (www.zoukeimura.co.jp) has a terrific page for the related A-1J Skyraider USAF kit (SWS-07) that includes many links to Extra Parts, like this set. It shows a photo of the weapons laid out and lists the contents as: · 12 of Mk81/250-pound General Purpose Bomb· 8 of Mk82/500-pound General Purpose Bomb· 6 of BLU-10/B Napalm Bomb· 6 of SUU-14/A Cluster Bomb Dispenser· 2 of SUU-11/A 7.62mm Minigun Pod· 4 of LAU-68/2.75-inch Rocket Bomb Pod· 4 of LAU-61/2.75-inch Rocket Bomb Pod· (Skyraider Kit is not included in this item) Scalemates.com shows that this is a 2016 new tool to support the A-1J Skyraider USAF (SWS-07) release from 2012 that came without ordnance. They show the box art and provide links to references for the A-1 Skyraider. Jean-Luc Formery delivered an outstanding In-Box Review on the archive.aeroscale.net site that lets us see exactly what we are getting. He posts a dozen professional photos of the sprues and decals, showing the stunning detail and quality of the parts as well as the exceptional clarity of the instructions. In his Conclusion, he correctly says: “Some think that a Skyraider without ordnance under the wings doesn't look right. If you are the same opinion this U.S. Aircraft Weapons set is what you need. It includes enough stuff to load two or three models. Remember, Zoukei-Mura provide two types of landing gear legs in their Skyraider kit so you can give it a heavy sit if you want.” This set is in a nicely illustrated box about 14.5” x 9” x 2.5”. As you can see from the pictures, the package is in outstanding condition and still sealed with tape strips, so I consider it factory sealed and absolutely gift-ready. This item contains one complete injection molded plastic model kit with over 170 detailed grey plastic parts and a large sheet of decals to create a massive weapons load for your own Zoukei-Mura 1/32 A-1J Skyraider (not included). It requires cement and paint to complete as shown. I use eBay Managed Payments, but I no longer ship internationally. Auction winner pays winning bid and for a limited time, this useful item is offered with $8 Flat Rate Shipping in the US! No reserve and a low starting bid.

I like to provide more than just the bare facts about the items, trying to lead you into discovering more about the subjects and optimizing your builds (if that is your goal). I started out picking up models that I was interested in, with the eye toward building them when I had time. Always a bargain-hunter, I accumulated many more than I can build, so I found myself in a Collector status (sounds nicer than a hoarder). As I am sure you have noticed, my items are almost always sealed and in mint condition (I call them Gift-Ready), since I only open them when I am ready to build them. Now I enjoy making these products available to my fellow modelers; both Builders and Collectors. For the Builders, there are probably better (at least cheaper) ways to add to your project lists than buying from me, but you know you are getting top quality. For Collectors, my goal is to save you a few bucks over the competition for the same item in factory sealed and collectible (or resellable) condition.
