Missing Link makes some resin sets to upgrade or convert the Hawk/Testors kit.

The only ones Kitty Hawk makes are 1/32. Too big for me.

I’m really surprised that they did not follow up their 1/32 kits with any 1/48 versions.

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...

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...

Some really cool memories.I got started as a little kid,had to be mid 60's on the Aurora Monsters,think I had most of them.
Godzilla
King Kong
Mummy
Creature
Frankenstein
Wolfman

I just built then with my mother and father and played with them untill they broke.

Others were:

Dracula
Witch
Hunchback of Norte Dame
Torture rack
Bride of Frankenstein

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.
