for that kind of money you can get the whole plane:

sign up for an account before you buy (you'll have to to check out anyway) and you'll save about $15 off those prices.

Re: 1:18 Scale B-17 Nose section
yes it comes just like you see it there. It's about 1/19 scale. It's made of epo foam, so it has a slight texture to the surface, like a styrofoam coffee cup but it's not noticable from a few feet away. It's quite a nice model. Not much of an interior to it but room to squeeze in the torsos of a few figures so you can see them in the cockpit, nose, turrets and tail.

Re: 1:18 Scale B-17 Nose section
Boy, do I ever want one of those!
I just scored an old Monogram "White-Box" 1/48 "G" (That I built about 20
of in the 70's) and the nose was always my favorite part of the build (You
couldn't see much of the other areas when the model was done).
In 1/18 scale....very neat. I'm not too crazy about the price but....eh,
I'll wait 'till I find a better deal on Ebay or (when I'm able to buy) here.
