Description: A superb 1/72 diecast USAAF North American P51-D Mustang "Big Beautiful Doll" WZ-I/44-72218, flown by Col. John Landers based at RAF Duxford, December 1944.It is from a De Agostini series of World War 2 fighters. The models & stands are the same as those released under the IXO brand some years ago, so I'm pretty sure that this series have been made by IXO for De Agostini.The plane is predominantly made from metal & has many small detail accessories, & inter-changeable undercarriage parts.It measures 5 1/4" (130mm) in length & has a wingspan of 6 1/4" (160mm), & is presented in a vac-form "sandwich" & outer card box.It is new, mint & boxed.The Flying Mule says: Flying a P-40 in the PTO; Colonel John Landers scored 6 victories. In 1944 he was sent to the ETO where he scored 8.5 victories of which 4.5 were scored flying a P-51. His total at wars end was 14.5 air-to-air victories and 20 ground victories. This made Landers one of the few pilots to achieve Ace status in both theaters of operation. His P-38, P-40 and P-51 were all named "Big Beautiful Doll". His P-51D 44-72218 coded WZ-I was the 192nd produced from a batch of 3,000 ordered the day after D-Day.
