EH-101 Merlin model avaiability
Posted by dvdfnny on Tuesday, December 4, 2012 3:09 PM

I'm looking for a 1/48 Merlin helo scale model.  I flew a LOT in them in AFG, tremendous helo IMO. I would like to build one.  I've seen the 1/72 from Italiri and Revell, but was interested in a larger model.

Airfix are in the process of launching a 1/48th Merlin, which is apparently pretty well detailed (335 parts) - there isn't a release date at the moment, but I don't imagine it's that far away. You could drop Airfix an Email to get an estimate on availability.....

Thanks for the info.  I searched but never even got a whiff of that bird.  Looks great.  I plan on making one the way I remember it (I took a bunch of photos while I was over there), and maybe one with a camo pattern.  Much appreciated!
