GR showed one of these in red, here is the reverse color version. It has retractable landing gear. This plastic toy plane surpasses many die cast and even more tin toys in its appearance and play value.

I have found a Christmas photo on the web site "Flickr" that dates this toy to 1956.

I think these plastic Hubley aircraft are really interesting, especially since the company is best know for using materials like cast iron and diecast metals.

I'll drop a link here to the plastic Hubley helicopter that is styled somewhat like the Hiller Hornet.
