Jeff Yeagher Sandworm

Yeagher Sandworm

This is the first kit produced by the legendary sculptor Jeff Yeagher, and is the most difficult to acquire of the Yeagher kits.
Supposedly Jeff was disgusted with the quality of the Revell Sandworm, so he made his own.
The worm is composed of 4 pieces, hollow-cast. There is also a spice-collecting ship, and an elegant sand dune base.
The base is about 11 1/2" by 9". There is no box, it came in a simple ziplock bag.

There is probably about 40 of these kits in existance
