B747-4D7 Thai 'Dragonboat' 1:400 **Discontinued**
Classic model that put Dragon on the map & ushered in the age of 1:400 scale diecast collecting. Unless you were there at the time, you can NOT understand how such models affected the collecting community !!
Excellent model in a very nice box, complete with all it's factory sealed parts & stand. The plastic case that holds the model is turning gold with age and is becoming fragile. This is how it is- everything ages folks!- the plastic case was not made with archival material & time is taking it's toll. It will be fun to see how collectors of the future deal with their aging models & packaging. There is not much you can do to stop some plastics from becoming brittle, thus get prepared. Think metal does not age ?? Talk to some militaria or coin collectors & get educated!
