Recreate the tense action inside a WWII bomber with this detailed 1/48 and 1/72 Scale Resin Model Kit. This model features a WWII Allied Bomber Gunner (suitable for representing a Waist Gunner or Ball Turret Operator of a B-17 Flying Fortress or B-24 Liberator) intensely firing his machine gun. The kit includes the figure in a flight suit, helmet, and partial turret structure, perfect for cockpit or turret vignettes. This detailed model is supplied unassembled and unpainted.

Product Features & Set Components

  • Dual Scale Suitability: Designed to fit within both 1/48 and 1/72 scale bomber models for flexible diorama building.

  • Detailed Gunner Figure: The figure is posed dynamically, strapped in with safety harnesses and wearing a heavy flight suit and helmet, focusing on the action of firing the weapon.

  • Integrated Turret Structure: The model includes a partial cut-away of the turret or gun position, including the machine gun and internal framing, to add context and realism.

  • Period Gear: Features period-accurate details like the flight helmet, oxygen mask (or communication gear), and the bulky bomber uniform.

  • Superior Resin Casting: High-quality resin ensures crisp definition on the harness straps, the mechanical details of the machine gun, and the flight gear textures.

This distinctive multi-scale bomber gunner kit is essential for modelers specializing in detailed WWII aviation interiors and large bomber aircraft dioramas.
