I was just in the “Experimental Bombers” thread and there were some posts about the B-49 Flying Wing; so I wanted to ask all of you. Has anyone built the AMT/Ertl B-49 kit? I can’t remember if it is in 1/48 or 1/72 but it is a big box. I just saw a few the other day at a toy store and wondered if the kit is a good build. Any advice would be great thanks.

There was a review of the kit in FSM shortly after it was released.
From what I recall, it was a generally good review with only a few minor fit problems mentioned.
Both variations went together fairly well, with a little filler added. The scale was/is 1/72. If you want an unusual kit for your collection, this a good place to start. _ Ed
big box, little stuff
Next time I see one, I’m going to buy the rascal! A nice kit by all accounts.[:D]
It’s 1:72 and it needs alot op putty in order to get the joints flush.
But it is a nice model, so get it and build it.
