ABOUT THE DESIGN

ABOUT THE KIT

For the sequel to his 2000 hit "X-Men," director Bryan Singer made several "upgrades" to his original cinematic interpretation of the classic Marvel comic book -- not the least of which was the hero's private aircraft, the X-Jet.  Although still obviously based on an Air Force SR-71 "Blackbird," this new X-Jet was considerably sleeker and stealthier than its forward-swept-wing predecessor.

The X-Jet is notable not only for its speed and maneuverability, but also for its advanced VTOL capabilities.  Also, unlike a standard two-man SR-71, the X-Jet has been modified to carry more than a half-dozen.

This "table top" model of the X-Men X-Jet was released in October 2008 by Fantastic Plastic Models.  Patterned by Scott Lowther and cast by Acme Design, Inc., the kit featured the plane in its "in-flight" configuration.
