Are the Revell & Monogram !/48 Catalina kits just a rebox? I suspect yes, but I would appreciate the opinion of someone in the know. Thanks.

No, it's the Revell model.

LOL! Sorry Juggler - which kit you saw first all depends on which side of The Pond you are. Yes they are the same kits with different decals.

All the best

And different instructions.

I have both monogram and revell boxings pby5 and 5a from revell. If you need instructions i can copy and send. Also will have spare decals at some point.

Andy, Yes I would like a copy of the instructions. They will give me an idea of what I am getting into. Can you scan e-mail them?

Juggler - yes i can or i can photo copy and post. Each instruction booklet its approx 12 pages of A4 - it'll be a big email.

PM me with postal address if this is better - it'll take about a week.

The finished size of these is HUGE.

Andy, perhaps photo copying the instructions and posting them would be easier and others could check them out also. Thanks in advance.

I'm a bad man. I've forgotten all about this. I'll get them scanned this week, and sent to you.
