OK. Here is my Grumman Goose.

First unpainted...

and then repainted to be the evil oil company in my campaign game. (put your thumb over the bottom of the four and read the number on the wing upside down if you don't believe me... :D

It's a diecast model bank you can find pretty readily on Ebay for around $20.00

If you don't care much about details or accuracy of construction such a toy should be perfect.
"I'd like to send this letter to the Prussian consulate in Siam by aeromail. Am I too late for the 4:30 autogyro?"
"Uh, I better look in the manual... This book must be out of date. I don't see "Prussia", "Siam" or "autogyro"...

I'm still searching for something similar, Moduni couldn't help me really. I'd like to have something like an early Junkers or a Dornier. Or a Zeppelin-Staaken :D

And I like Pulp because I can do funny nonsense (like flying nazi saucers or evil professor's world destruction machines) with a kind of historical accuracy.  :mrgreen:

Hey Grimm,

Here's one for you...

Try searching 'Grumman Goose Gearbox' or some combination of those.
Gearbox is the manufacturer.

it's a very nice model.

Good luck with it. Don't overbid. these things show up a lot. When I got mine there were about 9 for sale.

Be price picky and you will get a very good deal
