The "Century Wings" range presents highly-detailed, ready-made diecast models of military aircraft. Beginning with the ever popular F-14 Tomcat, Century Wings are setting a new standard in 1:72 diecast for detail and accuracy. Each model includes a selection of weapons and removable pilot figures. Most notable however, are the completed landing gear sub-assemblies that snap quickly into place, eliminating the frustration of attaching numerous individual gear doors and struts found on similar diecast models.
This beautiful rendition of the famous F-14 Tomcat can be configured for ground or "in-flight" display. Furthermore, the wings can be positioned in varying levels of sweep position.
Scale: 1/72 - Length: 10.25" - Width: 10.75"
