Grumman Goose 1:32 France and UK Service
Description
Discover a fresh take on a true classic with our newly released 1:32 Grumman Goose, crafted using advanced high-resolution 3D printing for sharp detail and superb fit. This kit is built to satisfy modelers who want both accuracy and freedom of presentation—whether you prefer a clean showroom finish or a busy, lived-in aircraft scene.
A standout feature is the faithfully reproduced Pratt & Whitney R-985-AN-6 Wasp Junior engines. The intricate cylinder detail and crisp component definition make them a dream for painting, washes, and subtle weathering. You decide how much to reveal: display the engines fully visible, show them with the cowlings removed, or open up the entire nacelle area to create a dramatic “work in progress” showcase.
The Goose is also ideal for dioramas thanks to its smart configuration options. You can remove the wings to reduce the model’s size and present it as if it’s in maintenance or restoration, adding instant storytelling to your build. Complete the scene by choosing landing gear up or down, allowing for anything from a ramp-ready pose to a sleek in-flight or water-operation display.
Choose one of two distinctive historical finishes:
1. JRF-5, French Naval Aeronautics Squadron 8.s, Cát Lái Naval Air Base, Indochina, 1953
2. Mk.IA, Fleet Air Arm, Station Piarco, Trinidad, 1943
One aircraft—countless ways to build, display, and impress.
