I recently got thes images from Frank Winspur, owner of Moebius Models. They are of the "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" Flying Sub styrene model kit that Moebius is currently developing. The images show work-in-progress so there will undoubtedly be changes to the features and details as the model is adjusted and fine-tuned for eventual production. In the meantime, enjoy the pix!
