Description
Recreated from COBI construction blocks, the set reproduces the iconic "Axis Nightmare" with characteristic emblem depicting a grim reaper. This particular aircraft was lost in February 1945 during the war in the Pacific.
The amazing model of the powerful B-24D bomber has been carefully developed using 1445 building blocks in 1:48 scale. The set uses only permanent prints, you won't find stickers here! For a better recreation of the complicated shape of the glass cockpit we have developed new kinds of blocks! In the cockpit there are two figures of pilots included in the set. The figures feature detailed prints on the front and on the back which perfectly recreate fighting in the Pacific region. The set also includes movable elements like propellers, ailerons and lockable bomb hatches. The plane is extremely large. It has a wingspan of 68.5 cm and a length of 45 cm. Thanks to the intuitive instructions based on clear illustrations the construction is simple. The plane is a must-have item for all enthusiasts of history, aviation, military and military technology. The huge number of pieces also ensures many hours of exciting construction and the set was entirely produced in Poland within the European Union.
The B-24 Liberator was an American long-range heavy bomber and patrol aircraft, also used to combat U-boats. The Liberator was designed and built by the American Consolidated Aircraft Corporation. Its task was to bomb remote cities, factories, bases and other enemy targets. With the entry of the US into World War II, production of the aircraft increased. This aircraft was armed with 8 to 10 12.7 mm machine guns and could carry up to 3.6 tons of bombs, cargo and personnel. Build history, piece by piece, with COBI.

I really wanted to enjoy building the B-24, but unfortunately I found the instructions far too difficult to follow. Many of the illustrations were unclear, making it hard to determine exactly which piece was required or precisely where it was supposed to go. At several points, pieces that appeared to be required seemed to be nowhere in the bag, leaving me wondering whether I had misunderstood the instructions.
I also found some pieces unusually difficult to connect, while others didn’t seem to fit tightly and left small gaps between bricks. I made it fairly far into the wing assembly before finally giving up.
I’ve built very large and intricate sets from another well-known brick company, and while some have certainly been challenging, I’ve never had this much difficulty simply understanding what the instructions were telling me to do. A complicated build can be enjoyable when each completed step gives you a sense of accomplishment. With this set, I was too often left wondering, “Did I actually build that correctly?”
I know many people have enjoyed this model, but for me it was the opposite of what I want from a brick-building set: challenging and intricate, yes—but not guesswork. Clearer instructions, more consistent fit between pieces, and a better method for separating bricks would have made this a much more enjoyable experience.
I built it and so many missing parts and a couple of the parts were super scarched and I do not recommend this set at all a mini fig was missing and one propeller was missing and other one was BROKEN!😡
But it’s alright because I used the parts to build something else
This is my fifth set so far (more in my wish list); I love the detail and accuracy; I am a fan myself of all about WW2 and fan of bricks, now I have the perfect mix. Excellent quality, clear instructions; I’d love to have more technic and complex sets in the future and new models like the AVRO Lancaster, Consolidated Catalina, B-29, Condor or Gigant. THANK YOU!!
This was not my first experience ordering from COBI and it won't be my last. My order was, once again, sent quicker than originally thought. The order was packaged well and was delivered with no problem. The set was exactly as pictured and was given as a gift to my WWII buff son. He will certainly enjoy putting it together with his sons. Thank you COBI for another great experience!
I 1st discovered Cobi looking for this very model 5 years ago. My grandfather was a tailgunner and his plane was shot down in February 1945 and he was a POW for the remainder of the war
