Release Date for Revell 1/48th Swift Boat?
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, November 5, 2004 7:04 PM
I just noticed the Revell ad in FSM for the 1/48th Swift Boat kit # 5031. I went to Revell's site for specifics and the kit is not listed. Does anyone have info on this kit? I hope they'll have it out before Christmas so that I can get it for my father in law who was a swift boat crewman in 68-69.

Hey tho9900,

I sent an e-mail to Lawrence Hansen inquiring if the photo of the kit was indeed an indicator that the kit will be re-released or if it was only for the purpose of the advertisement...boy I sure hope that they will. I know a lot of old swift boat sailors who would love another shot at owning one!
