This chogokin is a 1/48 scale toy released in 2006. There were four versions: normal (this one navy/grey), weathering, black/white, black/white weathering, and flat black. I had all version at one time or another but settled on the original like the TV show.

Both doors open and there is even a cute little figure in the pilot seat.

If you can track it down, grab it. I bought mine for around $85 three years ago and as this post occurs I had long sold off all other versions and regret it…they are going for like $200 plus dollars right now and of course I miss them.
