Expendables planes

Has any one ever built the planes used in the Expendables movies?

As they appeared in the films? No. But I built a Monogram Albatross as a kid. As with most of their kits back back then, it was a fun, easy build.

I haven’t built the kit but have it in my stash if that’s any help.

Cheers,

There were a few unusual aircraft used in the 3 movies, I’m surprised one of the companies didn’t try marketing the Albatross they flew in the first one. Wayne

For a smaller manufacturer it’s a pretty good kit. A little flash and a few sink holes but overall a nice representation.

I know nothing about the kit but:

I like this, have seen them on Ebay. Might be one in my future. Wayne
