Description:
Caring Transitions of Roswell and Buckhead, Georgia warmly welcomes you to our Model Kit Mania: Airplanes, Tanks, & More Pt 2 Online Auction on CTBids! Model Kit Mania: Airplanes, Tanks, and More, Part 2 is the incredible second chapter of a collection fifty years in the making. This is an astonishing, once-in-a-decade estate event. With 8,000 to 10,000 kits in total, the journey continues with another carefully curated slice of this remarkable inventory. Our collector began building kits in middle school, a quiet weekend habit that grew into a lifelong pursuit of aviation history. He went on to become an accomplished mechanical engineer and a licensed pilot, and he carried an engineer's eye into every kit he acquired. He did not simply own these model kits; he studied them, speaking to the strengths and weaknesses of every airframe, the evolution of its design, and the reasons behind each innovation across Allied and Axis aircraft of World War II. His focus was warbirds and vintage aircraft, a passion deepened through his membership in the Commemorative Air Force and his involvement with the local chapter of the International Plastic Modelers Society (IPMS). For decades, he attended air shows and swap meets whenever he could, patiently curating every shelf of what became one of the largest private scale aviation collections in the Southeast. At 66, his cancer journey ended far too soon. His family's wish is simple: that these kits reach the builders who will appreciate them the way he did. Part 2 continues that journey with another carefully selected slice of the inventory, spanning aviation, armor, and vehicles, featuring brands such as Academy, Accurate Miniatures, Bandai, Hasegawa, Heller, Hobbycraft, and Tamiya. Highlights include the Academy F-111, Accurate Miniatures kits, a B-29 Superfortress, Bandai German tanks, Hasegawa Tomcats, Heller lots, the Hobbycraft F-105, and Tamiya kits, including a Jeep. Most of the collection is pristine and unopened. We will host multiple online sales from May to July featuring pick-up in Marietta, GA, with shipping available.
