US Consolidated B-24D Liberator 1:48 Scale Building Block Set by COBI – COBI-5739
Using COBI construction blocks, this model reproduces the iconic “Axis Nightmare” B-24D Liberator with its characteristic grim reaper emblem. This particular aircraft was lost in February 1945 during the war in the Pacific. The B-24 Liberator was an American long-range heavy bomber and patrol aircraft, also used to combat U-boats. The Liberator was designed and built by the Consolidated Aircraft Corporation. Its task was to bomb remote cities, factories, bases, and other enemy targets. With the entry of the US into World War II, production of the aircraft increased. This aircraft was armed with 8 to 10 12.7 mm machine guns and could carry up to 3.6 tons of bombs, cargo, and personnel.
This amazing model of the powerful B-24D bomber has been carefully developed using 1445 building blocks in 1:48 scale. The model uses only permanent pad printing, with no stickers used. The complicated shape of the glass cockpit required development of a new brick, and beneath these unique parts are pilot and first officer figures. The figures feature detailed prints on the front and on the back which perfectly recreate fighting in the Pacific region. The set also includes movable elements like propellers, ailerons, and lockable bomb hatches. The plane is extremely large. It has a wingspan of 27″ and a length of almost 18″. Thanks to the intuitive instructions based on clear illustrations, construction is simple and enjoyable. The plane is a must-have item for all enthusiasts of WWII aviation history.
