HPH 1:48 B-52

Has anyone built it? It’s huge, it’s expensive and it’s crazy to consider, but it is also looks unbelievably awesome.

I’m actually giving it some thought.

You’ll have to park it in your garage !! [:S]

Would love to see it built

I’m thinking I’d have to hang it from the ceiling as if it were coming in to land.

Did it ever get produced?

There are several unboxing reviews, so it appears to be real.

Hello!

Every time this subject comes up, I encourage you to build this baby:

Did anybody manage to do it yet?

I’d say yes:

Scale is 1:33, length about 1400mm, wingspan about 1700mm. And thekit can be had under 50$!

Have a nice day

HLJ has the kit for $1,800 Holy Crap!!! I would love to have it as my dad flew the aircraft. But not for that much… geesh.

Go for that paper one, it’s about 40 times cheaper then!

It’s $640 on the HPH website. Still a lot of money.

There was one at IPMS San Diego’s contest a couple years back. Thing is absolutely massive when built.

Lets see the real BUFF has a 195 ft wingspan. So in 48th scale that’ll be just short of 50 inches. Yikes
