                        Pocher was something special as they made multimedia kits in a time they weren't available. There were other manufactures that made 1/8 scale kits, Entex ( mostly F1 cars) Otaki, Monogram, Rosso...... with several impressive large scale. Still can be available at eBay, look for 1/8 in the toys section.

                         Here one of my builds

                        I saw the article with the 1/8 scale Alfa Romeo 2300 8C engine which had been manufactured by Pocher.

                        My question: Are (or were) there any other manufacturers who made large scale models like the ones Pocher sold back in the seventies?

                        I have been looking in ebay and was wondering if there were other manufacturers I should be searching for, along with Pocher.
