VERY HARD TO FIND VINTAGE 1950 USAF CONVAIR B-36 BOMBER AIRPLANE TIN LITHO FRICTION JAPAN YONEZAWA., From my own collection-a very nice example minus the plastic dome canopy which would be easy to snap back in place form a junker or find a repro, i never got around to it, i thought it looks pretty cool hanging up as it is. Condition is "Used". but as you can see this is in excell...ent condition for display, missing only the main canopy, otherwise its complete, even the little green bubble windows are here as well as ALL PROPS are intact! no missing blades!Awesome very large Yonezawa tin toy US airforce heavy bomber the B-36 Peacemaker- very large 26" wingspan nose to tail measures approx 18 1/2". Plane has 6 "pusher" type mounted propeller engines which turn when the landing gear friction mechanism is activated, and two twin engine nacelle jet turbines just like the real plane, so cool! When pushed along, the propellers turn!!! SO COOL!All of the propellers turn except one (farthest left engine, i dont know the problem as cosmetically is fine, , the other 5 props all rotate when the plane is pushed), but it looks fine on the shelf and you arent going to really play with it so i think thats a pretty minor flaw.
Even has 3 little tin pilots heads all intact on the flight deck! I believe that this was one of the largest tin toy airplanes of the day. Very impressive in size and function and just a super cool vintage tin toy. I search for toys alot on ebay and have not seen one of these planes show up in several months, original cost for this toy was $1600 when toys were more valuable, i was happy to pay it even without the canopy as vintage tn toys used to sell for ALOT more., but i have priced it closer to what i think its worth now "as is", and i will consider FAIR offers.
