Ca someone please tell me the dimensions of the bbi WW2 aircraft boxes? (Mustang, Zero, etc). I think they are all the same - or close to the same - size. Thanks

IIRC The zero box was a bit longer than the Mustang. I had a case box of 2 Mustang and I couldn't put a Zero in.

Both the Corsair and Mustang are exactly the same box size.

Thanks, measuring for anticipated purchases. :)

I always wondered how bbi could fit everying in a box so much smaller than 21st.

I received both the Hellcat and Zero in the same shipping box. I couldn't believe both planes fit in there. The boxes were tiny compared with 21c's packaging! :shock:

Right. Some of my BBI planes are in slightly longer boxes ... the width always seems to tease me into thinking I can double them up into a storage box.

Why would you keep them in a box?

That is correct, as is the BF-109.
