Not a bad sale price too. A bit steep once it's off sale.

I never knew that there was a kit in 1/16!!! I thought the Monogram 1/24 kit was as big as it got…

Little too big for me. I don't have room anywhere for it.

The biggest one I’ve done was the old Revell 1/32 scale Huey…

I’ve done the Revell 1/32 Huey Cobra kit too…

I’d love to do both of those kits again…

Built that sucker with my cousin back in the 80s after watching Apocalypse Now. That was cool. Got find that kit and give it another shot!

I built 'em both too... long ago...
Revell reissued the Huey a few years ago with the marking for Ancient Serpent 6 of We Were Soldiers fame. The Cobra was reissued maybe 20 years ago with new decals and weapons...
