Hi Jeff,
MiniHobby Models have a lot of 1/144 of WWII aircrafts, also check out Trumpeter’s Type 97 Mavis Flying Boat, H6K5/23, its a real beauty,

Hi Ben,
I will definitely pick up the Mavis, since I found an LS Emily at a local show…I also picked up the Eduard Ju-52 floatplane, B-58, and Eduard Fw-190s and Bf-109F…all great kits…if you haven’t seen the Eduard fighters yet, get 'em, they’re very nice!

There is a LHS in Fairborn Oh that buys collections every once in a while. He recently bought a boat load of 1/144 scale stuff, including revell, crown, LS, and some others. Most are in original boxes and alot of them are still in the shrink wrap. Call him at 937-879-4112 or email him at doyle@fairborn.net. as he will mail order.
I’m building the Hobbycraft B-58, along with my 1/72 B-52D. I’m trying to finish up my 1/48 and 72 kits so I can get more in the teensy scale. Some resin kits do have cockpit detail, but why bother? Unless you paint everything!
Alex from airalex provided me with the following sites, one of which has already been posted. I never knew how many 1/144 were actually out there.
