The Polish based Amercom subscription people have just launched a new series of mostly 1:144th scale diecast bombers that includes the B-17, B-52, Vulcan, DO-17 and Ju-88. Its first entry is the WW2 Polish medium bomber---a capable and modern plane-----the PZL-37 or "Los" ( Elk ) bomber. In addition to fighting the Germans some of these machines found their way to Romania and were used in 1941 against the Soviets.
The model is quite well detailed and painted. All I had to do to put it right was bending the horizontal stabilizer into the correct alignment. I also added a few bits of paint and some weathering/staining and the results are shown below:

These are not sold via normal retailers. I got my model via eBay. There are at least three guys offering models from this line, including the Los bomber. Prices vary considerably but are quite cheap. Here are two item numbers that are currently active for this model; 250893665899 and 310342654403. I just go to the appropriate diecast aircraft section and search under the 1:144th scale.

Pretty obscure subject to be done in diecast.
But Epap is the King of obscure diecast aircraft.
