This is a 1/48 Scale 50th Anniversary Collector's Edition of the Roswell UFO. It's a skill level 3 plastic model for advanced modelers ages 8 and up. This authentic kit is manufactured by Testors.

On July 4, 1947, at approximately 11:29 p.m., a winged, biomemnetic alien reconnaissance spacecraft was struck by lightning during a summer thunderstorm and subsequently crashed on private ranch land co-owned by both Jason Ridgeway and Judd McKnight, 32 miles north of the city limits of Roswell, New Mexico. It had embedded itself like a dart in the upper slope of an arroyo on their sheep ranch. This is a 1/48 scale version of that historic aircraft, which is based on drawings forensically composited by William Louis McDonald, from interviews with witnesses and from the case files of authors Captain Kevin D. Randle, USAF Reserve, and Donald R. Schmitt.

Kit contains unassembled plastic parts molded in gray and black.
Includes five small alien figures.
Aircraft resembles the shape of a jellyfish - wide and flat with a rounded tip at the front.
Evidence reveals aircraft possessed something of "a living animal" quality, structured in layers, with patterns that appeared to be
neuron clusters or ganglia.
Instructions reveal an extremely detailed history of the Roswell story, including all the major players involved, both past and
present. Also included is a technological viewpoint of the wrecked
aircraft and a description of the aliens on board.
Includes a transparent panel for viewing the spacecraft's interior.
Waterslide decals.
The real-life aircraft had a wingspan of 25 feet and a length of 28 feet. No alien crew members survived.
Includes a display stand.
