1945 Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 Fritz Aufhammer – Oxford Diecast 1:72: Scale, Subject & Display Guide

Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 War Plane Oberstleutnant Fritz Aufhammer Stab/JG 301 Stendall Airfield Germany (1945) "Oxford Aviation" Series 1/72 Diecast Model Airplane by Oxford Diecast

This page is devoted to 1945 Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 Fritz Aufhammer – Oxford Diecast 1:72, the exact scale model aircraft sold under the Oxford Diecast record. The goal is practical identification: what the listing confirms, what remains unverified, and what a buyer or builder should compare before using the item.

This item is best cataloged under its full name and F977-AC096. The scale marker 1:72 is part of the exact identity and should be matched before purchase. The year 1945 belongs to the listing identity; it should not automatically be treated as the manufacturing date of the item. That combination protects against accidental substitutions when related products share a subject, color, scale or series.

Confirmed facts versus assumptions

The source description says: “Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 representing Oberstleutnant Fritz Aufhammer of Stab/JG 301 at Stendal Airfield in 1945, by Oxford Diecast. This 1:72 scale Oxford Aviation model is intended for collector display. Review the listing photos for the exact markings, landing gear and packaging. Item: AC096.” This is useful evidence, but it is not expanded beyond what the listing supports. Missing dimensions, materials, compatibility claims or package contents remain open questions.

What matters for this kind of product

For a diecast or scale collectible, the subject name alone is insufficient. Compare body casting, finish, graphics, wheel design, interior, base markings and packaging format. On 1945 Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 Fritz Aufhammer – Oxford Diecast 1:72, the exact photo set and SKU F977-AC096 are the reference pair; a model with the same vehicle name but a different wheel, road number or package is a different release.

Condition language must also match the format. A loose item is judged from the photographed surfaces and axles, while a packaged item adds card, blister, box and seal condition. A finished custom should be assessed for workmanship and disclosed modifications; a build kit should be assessed for included parts and fitment rather than as a completed collectible.

A closer project or collection check

A good collection note records what is visible and avoids unsupported rarity claims. Write down the exact color wording, graphics, wheel treatment, package condition and any disclosed customization. Market value can change; the product identity should remain reproducible from the record.

Upon arrival, compare the item with the listing images before opening or altering it. Any material discrepancy is easier to document while the original packaging and shipping materials remain intact.

Using the gallery as evidence

The gallery contains 3 indexed product images. Compare label text, package shape, visible contents, finish and any small identifying marks with the delivered item. A context image can show tools or related products that are not included, so the written record and selected option still control package contents.

A disciplined final review

  • Identity: title, vendor and SKU F977-AC096 agree.
  • Contents: included pieces and quantity are explicit.
  • Fit: scale, dimensions or interface match the intended use.
  • Condition: the photographed state is acceptable for the project or collection.
  • Transaction: current option, price and availability are confirmed.

Cataloging and project notes

The permanent record should answer three questions: what exact item was bought, what arrived, and how it was used or stored. The title and F977-AC096 answer the first; arrival photographs answer the second; project or collection notes answer the third.

Keeping those layers separate improves future comparisons and avoids unsupported grading.

Gift considerations

As a gift, 1945 Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 Fritz Aufhammer – Oxford Diecast 1:72 is strongest when the recipient already uses this scale, format, subject or product family. Check for duplicates and fit-sensitive details before choosing it solely from the brand name.

Product-specific questions

What is the safest comparison key?

Start with F977-AC096, then verify the complete title and exact image. That sequence avoids most near-match errors.

Should availability wording be treated as permanent?

No. Inventory and supplier status can change after verification.

What does this guide intentionally avoid?

It avoids invented dimensions, unsupported rarity claims and compatibility assumptions not established by the product record.

Decision summary: choose 1945 Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 Fritz Aufhammer – Oxford Diecast 1:72 when the complete identity, photographed details and intended use all match. The live page should settle current price and availability; this guide preserves the evidence needed to recognize the exact item.

Product-specific handoff notes

Anyone using this guide later should begin with F977-AC096 and the full name 1945 Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 Fritz Aufhammer – Oxford Diecast 1:72. The record identifies Oxford Diecast as the vendor and Scale Model Aircraft as the product type. Recheck those details whenever the item is compared with another listing, because punctuation or abbreviated names can hide meaningful release differences.

When the item enters a project or collection, note the date, observed condition, included pieces and any fit or setup result. Photograph modifications before and after they are made. These notes should describe this example only. Keeping them attached to the exact SKU preserves a useful history without turning personal experience into an unsupported specification for every similar product.
