The only ones Kitty Hawk makes are 1/32. Too big for me.Stikpusher wrote: Kitty Hawk makes a few...
Missing Link makes some resin sets to upgrade or convert the Hawk/Testors kit.

Re: Blast from the past model kits....
I’m really surprised that they did not follow up their 1/32 kits with any 1/48 versions.

Re: Blast from the past model kits....
Think about it for a minute...a 1/32 scale OV-10 Bronco will most likely be the size of a 1/48 scale P-51 Mustang. Keep in mind, the OV-10 Bronco is a small aircraft.
I have a 1/32 Sopwith Camel kit in my stash and it won’t be all that too big when assembled. FWIW, I don’t think a 1/32 scale OV-10 Bronco won’t be too big to display.

Yeah, wingspan is just a bit wider on the Bronco... but the length and rear width are more on the OV-10... but no, not a large aircraft at all...

Re: Blast from the past model kits....
I guess I still have a HAWK kit of the O-2A Skymaster in the basement. Not sure if it´s the chrome edition, though. Had the 1/32 scale Roden kit, but following some online builds, and checking the kit parts, I decided to sell it. Need to save myself from disappointment...

Re: Blast from the past model kits....
Let’s not forget the Dinosaur series...
Triceratops
Smilodon (Sail back dinosaur)
Allosaurus
Saber toothed tiger
Cave bear
Prehistoric Swamp
Cro magnon man and woman
Stegosaurus
T-Rex - the biggest one molded in red. I loved that one!
Cave
Neanderthal Cave man - didn’t get that one.
Styracosaurus (Spiked frilled dinosaur)
I’m sure there are others I’d forgotten about.

My brother had a Aurora guillotine model that I remember.
Building a kit from your stash is like cutting the head off a Hydra, two more take it’s place.
