Is there a kit out there?

I know... you'd think they'd label a kit according to the picture on the front of the box... shouldn't surprise me though, a while back I got a 1/48 Heller kit that had a picture of the OH-58C (flat window panels) on the box and labeled just "OH-58". Inside however, was an OH-58A windshield, OD plastic with raised civilian paint scheme lines and civilian side windows! GRRRR!!!

Oh well, such is modeling.

Take care,

Thank's all for you're speedy replies!, i knew i could get some answers here! sure wish they'd have a 1/35 kit some where, i built a 1/32 Revell Hughes 500C that was much fun to detail, perfect size! Thanks again!

Thanks Rob, I forgot about that thread.

Take care,

Here's the link to where I asked about it. A couple of links are there regarding model reviews.

I've got the Special Hobby TH-55A. I haven't built it yet, probably won't but I recall the canopy/body of the helicopter to be thin vacuformed clear plastic. I haven't looked at the kit in a while so I may be wrong.

There's suppose to be a MPM in 1/72 of Hughes TH-55A.

Wish someone would make those in 1/48th

How are you Ol Lefty, welcome to the FSM Forums!

There does exist a TH-55 in 1/72 scale (very tiny)....

The biggest headache associated with the model is the TWO PIECE windscreen... [:/]
