Revell kit origions
Posted by qmiester on Tuesday, October 6, 2015 5:10 PM

Amazon Prime is currently offering misc revell kts in various scales.  Amongs them is a 1/72 TA-152H, kit number 03981.  My question is this, is this a new Revell kit or a rebox of the old Heller 152?

Thanks

Perhaps even older. This indicates it's the '70's Frog kit: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/238854-revell-03981-ta-152-h

I would have to say, judging by this build, that the detail is "minimal".

I have not seen the Revell boxing, but can confirm that Frog did indeed produce a Ta-152 kit in 1/72 because i once built it. Revell also re-released the old Frog He-162, Do-335 and Ar-234 kits.
