Unique Sopwith Camel Opportunity

Ok, so I am having some problems getting photos to show up in my post. I will find a help thread i guess till I can get it working, its on flikr and ill try and get them up here.

Cool find! I never knew that such a kit excisted.

Aw damn!  I had that kit!  Got it for Christmas back in like 1971 or near then...  Also got the "sister" kit, "The Red Baron and His Fokker Triplane".  Both kits were motorized, the Baron's figure was a big cartoony bust like Snoopy's, with a big ol' moustache and the base was a big Iron Cross.. IIRC, the decals were stickers, rather than water-slide tough..

Been looking for both those kits for years...  Good find, Pard!

That's pretty cool that you used to have this model. I saw the Red Baron kit when I was doing some research on the piece online. With any luck I will be able to get it too. I have to wait a bit, just put a big order in for paints and a couple new kits, so the wife took my bank card. Darn her and her caring about our finances!

Got a link to those finds?

Definitely a great find!  My brother and I had both kits as kids.  This is a true find; take care of it.  The last one I saw was on display in the Smithsonian/National Air and Space Museum a few years back.  An awesome find; I've been looking for one myself.  Does the motor still work?  If so, doubly good!!

Would be nice to see both re-released by Revellogram but obtaining the rights may be prohibitive.

Mattel would be the problem...
