Now if we speak about ugly boxarts, this one must be included. Interestingly, this isn't from 1960s - it's a kit that just entered the market... I think we have a winner here. Is this an egg plane kit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously a secret method to help negotiate craggy terrain. Tony chrish and Jack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confusionreigns178 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) That Revell 1/144th F-104 looks awful! I'm guessing it was aimed at the under-14's market, who probably wouldn't have cared less about accuracy (or a real lack thereof). I thought the Airfix kits issued with a photograph of the actual model on the lid were pretty bad - just not a good way to sell the contents. Cheers. Chris.

eoyguy Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 (edited) Trumpeter F-8j Worlds largest aircraft carrier in background? Look at the size of that A-4 and blast deflector compared to the surrounding...acreage. Is the F-8 taking off from the fantail, or landing on the bow? Maybe VTOL? Wheels down, flaps down, wing raised, full burner. Apparently somewhere over the island. Is that a wood deck??? Forced perspective is not this artists strength...

Finn Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I found this one a bit strange, not the one in foreground but the one in the upper left being chased by a pair of SAMs and AAA and others being blasted from the sky: Jari LSP_Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
