Superb Grumman F-14A Tomcat by Franklin Mint (previously CDC Armour Collection) in US Navy VF-111 'Sundowners' squadron markings, flying from the USS Carl Vinson in the mid 1980s. Crew: Captain J K Finely and Captain H A Jupik.

A substantial and heavy weight die cast metal model with some plastic parts.

A pre-owned model taken in as part of a larger collection of aviation items. This model was displayed briefly but has spent most of its time boxed and in storage. The model is in mint condition. The original box is very good with just a few minor imperfections. The original internal packaging retaining screws are missing, the model will be well secured in transit by the custom formed polystyrene pieces but care should be taken when opening.

These larger Franklin Mint pieces are getting hard to find now, this one particularly so, they look very impressive when displayed and would be a nice gift for an aviation enthusiast.

For transit the original box will be packed securely inside a bigger postal box.

SHIPPING OUTSIDE THE UK
Once packed up securely for international shipping this model will be quite large and heavy which will be reflected in the shipping charges. For the USA the shipping cost is likely to be over £100 and on top of that there may be import duties from US Customs - we have no control over these. For most north Europe locations expect around £30 shipping plus again possible import duties.

We have accounts with all the major couriers and we always check around these for every order to get the best deal as prices change frequently. If you are interested in this model please contact us first so we can give you a more accurate shipping cost before you order.
