Does the gunner come with the turret? Or do you have to find one to put in there.

If I'm reading your question correctly..YES, what-you-see-is-what-you'll-get...and more!

Below is a concept diorama I've been thinking of doing as a long-term project as soon as the thing is released.

I have a member of my family that was a ball turrent gunner on the B-17 and getting this model would be perfect for him.
I need one just like this....I think i have seen this on another forum too.

The waist gunner looks cool, but as for the Ball turret - NUTS imo
