Description :
Fabulous scale reproduction of the 1962 Grumman Proposed Lunar Excursion Module by SFX Models.* This is a replica of the original contractor model. Made of molded resin and soldered brass, it has details like pressurization tanks, integral descent engine bell, and egress platform. Unlike many of SFX's lunar models, this is all one piece above the removeable green Perspex base. NASA and Grumman insignias on base topside and felt pad on bottom. Model attaches to base with 5 small pins. Measures 7.5" H including VHF antenna x 9" W at base. In terrific shape with the exception of a small hairline crack on one surface as noted in the last photo. Please note that the white circles on the base are a result of the highly reflective Perspex base with photo lighting, not flaws in the material. Shipping available only through Fed Ex Pack & Ship *SFX models is a high-end limited production model maker run by special effects designer Robert Jones. He makes his models for collectors, exhibitions, and museums. Currently located in Italy, his models are highly detailed and much coveted by true aficionados of aerospace collecting. "My name is Robert Jones and I run SFX Models Ltd. For the last 27 years I have been working in the film & TV industry, designing & making flying U.F.O's, Jumping Batmobiles, whipped Guinness, walking trees, real earthquakes, sinister robot dogs, flame grilled BBC 2 kebabs, Jenson Buttons winning Brawn F1 car, giant butter knives, a massive spoon to hit Vic Reeves, Harry Potters Hogwarts, vomiting fax machines, Teletubbies Custard Train, ticking bombs, 10,000 letters to Santa, the GPO Tower made from cash & ride-on hoverboards. At the end of 2018 I moved to Italy and set up a workshop and design office. I hope to continue making props and effects for feature films, but I also want to make space related things, particularly from the 1960's 'Space Race' era."
