Hasegawa makes a 1/48 scale SeaKing I don't know of anything in 1/32 or 1/35 scale

On the workbench: Dragon 1/350 scale Ticonderoga class USS BunkerHill 1/720 scale Italeri USS Harry S. Truman 1/72 scale Encore Yak-6

sorry no Sea Kings in 1/35,. Hasegawa does a couple of versions in 1/48th.

HSS-2 Sea King

Revell of Germany also does one (think it is a reboxed Hasegawa)

Revell of Germany and Airfix also have 1/72 scale models.

I built the Fujimi 1/72.. Not the best kit, but its about the only kit if you want 1/72 scale.. As above, cant say that I have heard of it in 1/32 or 35th scale either.. Would be nice if they did though!..

you do realize Chris that the 1/48 scale Sea King is a BIG kit I'd hate to see how much space is required for 1/32 scale kit (1/35 is the same as 1/32 scale anyways)

On the workbench: Dragon 1/350 scale Ticonderoga class USS BunkerHill 1/720 scale Italeri USS Harry S. Truman 1/72 scale Encore Yak-6

The revell germany has a VERY GOOD 1/72 Sea King, AD it includes all the bits and bobs you'll need to make the Aussie version (Westland Mk. 50).

(AS a sidenote, Death, got the dec's VERY nice, now I just need a model to put them on! Also I sent you all the parts I'd need to make itBig Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D])
