Moebius Flying Sub

From Apollo and Soyuz, to Gerry Anderson, Irwin Allen, Star Wars and Trek to Babylon 5, Battlestar Galactica and those strange, doe-eyed Japanese school girls...to any model kits you can think of, that only exists in imagination.

Moebius Flying Sub

Post by AndrewR »

From the TV series "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea"

The Moebius kit is 1/128 scale, to go with their model of the Seaview submarine.

There is an interior, but you would need to install lighting to see it.

Vallejo Golden Yellow over a sand primer, with Vallejo Air Steel Blue trim.

A nice little build. There are only about eight parts!

I vaguely remember the series, although I don't recall it being particularly big over here. That looks a fun little build, and the yellow looks very good.
Do you have the sub to go with it?
Best wishes

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

No, the sub is a separate (and quite large) kit, which I don't have the room to display!

Shame......

Can you not get a fish tank long enough; two birds with one stone etc. :-D 8-)
