HELO NUTS;
I think the Tenax phumes are getting to me. I know that Revell kits an 1/72 Eurocopter Tiger, and I think they did an Agusta ??model. But have either of these kits been done in 1/48. If my mind is not playing tricks on me, I thought they had. Anyone know or have seen OOP kit in this scale. Thnx prelim. Todd

I could be wrong Todd but I've never seen a 1/48th Eurocopter in plastic, there maybe one in resin but never seen that either.

Happy Modeling,
Joe

There is definitively no 1/48 A-129 Mangusta either. If there was I would have gotten one!

Hi Todd,
Italeri kitted a 1/48 Tiger some time ago which seems currently not to be available. Possibly they repop it in the future (like their UH-1N just now).

Anyway, it‘s supposed to be closer to the prototype than to an operational bird.

On www.modellversium.de or www.scale-rotors.com you can find some nice builts...

Cheers
Matty

I knew that my brain cells weren't depleted that bad. There was an 1/48 Tiger. Now if I could find it. My conversion would not be possable without it. I smell smoke!!

Hey guys
I posted pictures of my 1/48th scale Tiger a while back on this forum. And I still see the kits in stores from time to time.
