It doesn't look very big, maybe about 3inch across from tip to tip. I have seen some this size and they were in a similar packaging.

I have also seen some that people have done using Sculpy;good versions that match up really well with the ones in the 53 version.Relatively easy to shape and mold to that manta-ray configuration we all find so appealing.I suggest that you have a good ''freeze'' function on your DVD player,to really get the correct angles and curves on your War Machine.

There are often these sorts of '53 models on e-bay.

Generally, the smaller the kit the crapper it is - hardly any detail and the cobra neck has a tendancy to snap in transit.
There's a really nice 1/72nd scale version still available which measures about 10 inches across with clear green wing tips and front bit that's pretty much the ultimate.
