Monogram SBD Dauntless

Ciao ragazzi, this time I had to built for my friend Nicola this very vintage kit. The box is from 1972 ! By the way this is the result ..in the begging look a big toy but was nice to built; of course is very basic no interior, not much details but was very funny. And the decals still perfect.

  3. That’s a classic ! You did nice work building it. I’ve got one proudly displayed in my collection too.

  4. Nice build! 70's state of the art... Cool, Man ✌️✌️

  5. Nice work! I built a couple of those as a kid. I think it would be fun to build some of those old kits again.

  11. Paolo @tarantinopaolo, it's great to see another old Monogram classic! 👍 Those kits have a special place in my heart and you've done the Dauntless proud with your great build! 👏

    I built that one many years ago and here's a look at it if you'd like to see another one:
