Ran across these shots of the 1/200 model I made as a kid. Still have it although it's in bad repair. Had to play "sick" from school to finish it, but worth it. pic.twitter.com/okVGy2fpvw

1972-3. Here are two Disney letters that mention the model. One from archivist Dave Smith, and another from Disney News. It almost made it! 😄 https://t.co/PkWDEOl9Tt pic.twitter.com/vgt5uCfjQu
