I found an ad for a 1:18 nose section of a B17, but no reveiws. Has anyone run across it? Only $300.00

Just the nose section? That's pretty interesting.

Here is the link 1:18 MPM B-17F Flying Fortress Memphis Belle Segment Nose #HPH004 -- Sprue Brothers Models LLC Online Store
Should they have all the sections + wings available...

That nose section could make an interesting display piece.

So is anyone building these huge models?

I was thinking about buying the B17 nose but since I will be unemployed on 10/31/11, it will have to wait. The top of the nose can be cut off and replaced with a clear part to show off the inside. Here are a couple of links.

Thx for the link. It means that no one knows when, where and which company will produce B-17G. If ever...
