NEW RELEASE: GEMINI ACES 1/72 P-51B Mustang "Snoots Sniper" 328FS 1944

Due at the end of January 2010 after a very long delay.

1/72 Scale Gemini Aces North American P-51B Mustang "Snoots Sniper".

Limited Edition to only 500 pieces worldwide.
The Most Limited Gemini Ace to Date

This represents the P51B mount of Lt. Francis Horne, "Snoot's Sniper", 352FG, 328FS, during the summer of 1944. His machine's nickname was misspelled as it was suppose to be Snoot's Snipper. S/Sgt. Art Snyder was the crew chief and also doubled as the 328FS barber. Note the barber pole on the right hand side. This Mustang was long lived, accumulating over 300 hours of combat and was still at Bodney come VE Day. Lt. Horne was credited with 5.5 air to air victories and 1 on the ground.

That's an understatement! LOL!

I pre-ordered (and paid for) this model, what? two years ago? three years now?

All I can say is... it's about time!
