Academy 1/72 B-29A Old Battler: Precision WWII Bomber Model

The Academy 1/72 B-29A Old Battler is a carefully sculpted scale kit that celebrates one of World War II's most capable heavy bombers. The B-29A's reputation for advanced systems and long-range performance is represented here in a compact 1/72 package, letting modellers recreate an important piece of aviation history.

Historic Role Captured in Miniature

The Boeing B-29 Superfortress was a key asset in the Pacific campaign, known for its long-range missions and high-altitude operations. This kit focuses on the B-29A variant and reproduces the aircraft's defining lines and silhouette for collectors and history-minded builders.

Build Experience and Display Potential

At 1/72 scale the kit balances detail with manageable assembly, offering well-defined fuselage panels, wing surfaces, and cockpit features. Model builders will find the finished model makes an attractive display piece that reflects careful modelling and period authenticity.
