This 1:72 diecast model of the de Havilland Mosquito PR.I ‘W4051’ represents the earliest operational photo-reconnaissance variant of one of WWII’s most versatile aircraft. The prototype for this version first flew on June 10, 1941, and retained many features of the bomber variant, including the glass nose and bomb bay doors. However, it was fitted with five camera ports for high-altitude reconnaissance missions—initially using steel mounts that were later replaced with wooden ones to reduce vibration and improve image clarity.

 

The Mosquito PR.I entered RAF service with No. 1 Photo-Reconnaissance Unit at RAF Benson, with aircraft ‘W4051’ delivered by Geoffrey de Havilland Jr. himself on July 13, 1941. These fast, unarmed aircraft would go on to play a vital role in intelligence gathering throughout the war.

 

This model comes prebuilt and includes display accessories and a stand, perfect for collectors of early reconnaissance aircraft and RAF Mosquito variants.

Grading

Grading Criteria

Our grading is based mainly on the physical condition of the model itself, including paintwork, attached parts, repairs, visible wear and overall presentation. Box condition and missing separate accessories are noted separately where applicable.

Mint (10/10)
- As new, with no visible flaws to the model itself.

Near Mint (9/10)
- Very light signs of handling, storage or display only.

Excellent (8/10)
- Light wear or a few tiny marks, but still displays very well.

Very Good (7/10)
- Noticeable wear, small chips or rubs, but still presentable as a display piece.

Good (6/10)
- Obvious overall wear, visible marks or paint loss; better suited as a display or filler piece.

Fair (5/10)
- Heavy wear, larger areas of paint loss, repairs or clearly visible flaws.

Spares / Repairs (4/10 or below)
- Significant damage, missing attached parts, broken components or best suited for restoration/spares.

If a separate accessory, stand, leaflet, certificate or optional part is missing, this will be mentioned in the listing notes. The model may still receive a high grade if the model itself remains in strong condition.
