Description :

Pair of vintage motorized models from maker Monogram  – Cyclone & Mustang

Monogram Models’ Cyclone 9 Radial Aircraft Engine kit from 1959, Model # PE252M-298. This electric  motorized model of the Wright Cyclone airplane engine is 65 years old, but most of the parts are still in their original bags or attached to their plastic frames. We don’t know enough about this model to say if it is complete, but it sure looks like it is to us. Besides the parts in red & grey plastic, there is an instructional book, an explanation of how the engine works, power operations manual, hobby catalog, and label plate for the model. Also includes a stand for the engine. Original box is in pretty good condition for age with only one torn corner and some soiling/wear.

Monogram Models’ Phantom F-51D Mustang model aircraft kit from 1961,  Model #PA67- 498. The aircraft is translucent so you can see its inner workings; it also has a mechanical drive and two electric motors (takes 2 “D” batteries). Like the previous model, we are unsure if the kit is complete, but there is A LOT of stuff here and our cursory inspection/gut tells us it is complete given our client’s collecting habits. There is an informational manual on the plane in IRL along with lists of parts and assembly guide. The plane sits on a pylon base (it is there for sure) and can “drop bombs”, operate propeller, and release landing gear. Please look closely at the photos or details – the motors appear to be in original plastic domes and many of the pieces haven’t been snapped from their frames. The completed model has 14” wingspan. Original box is in good vintage shape with a couple of torn/split corners.
