Hi Folks,
shortly before christmas
I found this Aero Mini Zero. I guess, that most of you experts out there know this plane, even though it is rare, but it came with box! In spite of former information received, the plane is not scale 1/100, but 1/72! So that sums up all Aero Mini scales to total of four, 1/290, 1/239, 1/100 and 1/72.
Even though the box was present, the Zero was unfortunately not mint and not complete. The original canopy was missing and it had a canopy of a plastic kit added, such as the prop was missing one blade with a part from a plastic kit added as well. I re-configured the canopy for better fitting and repaired the prop.
Attached you can also find a picture of the box. It has the Masudaya TM as logo, so the manufacturer of the Aero Minis in Japan is finally evident now
!
The included stand is interestingly made of plastic and not metal, such as the stands I know so far from the airliners.
That is really great stuff.
Greets and happy 2008!
Chris
