Sorry to say I only have the one 707 and that's in 1/100 scale. I missed out on the 1/50 scale version of the kit.
I too would like to get any additional and all versions of this kit. Can never have too many 707's

Hi everybody,

I just sent an email to Mr. Gauger, CEO of the AUE publishing house and copyright owner of the Schreiber Modellbaubogen asking for a new edition of this model ...

... now let's hope for the best.

Best regards,
Woody

.... good evening ...

I happen to own a 707 model from the late 1950ties ... Maybe it is of interest
for the community ...

NICE!!!!! Got to love it!!!!!! Thanks for posting it. I belive that's the 1/100 scale version, correct? The 1/50 version had a yellowish top I belive. I could be wrong, but I've only seen pictures of it so far. It also may have just been an old model where the paper had yellowed.
If indeed that's the 1/100 one, that's the one I have. I would love to have another one or two, I know, greedy. But I'd love to build an actual, not scanned one some day.
Of course I want to get my hands on that 1/50 version one day as well. Guess all I can do is keep looking. One day, maybe?

:-) forgot to state that this model is in 1/5o scale ... six A2 sheets (420 × 594 mm)

Cheers
Thomas

That's interesting! Is it possible to obtain a copy of it? I would be most interested.

Yes indeed. I messed up, I was bidding on eBay for it, and couldn't get back on to add a bid, it went for $50 US. That was just last week.
Next time, if there is a next time. I'll bid quicker.
It would be nice if Schreibers were to re issue the kit in both 1/100 and of course 1/50. Then again, I've seen the amazing abilities of some of the members here and have no doubt that someone could design a 1/50 b-707.
Hey, I can dream can't I?

Not dream... In fact I have one on the way and also some other but... I´m a slow designer due to the lack of time...
