Did Another Company Besides Aurora Make A DH 10 WWI Bomber ??
Posted by mic53mlb on Thursday, February 22, 2018 6:04 PM

I remember back in the early 80's when I was hunting model shops with my Grandfather and we was adamant that he wanted a kit of the WWI DeHavilland DH 10 bomber, he ordered it everywhere but they could never get it as it was out of production. I could swear it was made by AMT or the like but I'm almost positive it wasn't the 1/48 Aurora kit. Can anyone shine light on this ?? Thanks

No, according to Scalemates.

It was reissued a number of times, including as a “K&B Collectors Edition”, and they are all over eBay.

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Ok, then it HAD to be the Aurora kit. I'm going to have to pick that up and build it in my Grandfather's memory. Thanks GMorrison !

That’s very cool.

Read up on the kit on oldmodelkits.com.

Thatll give you an idea of the various boxings.

AMT did the DH-4 in 1/48.
