Title pretty much says it all. I am looking for an H-23 Raven in either 1/32 or 1/35. Does anything exist out there?



These were used as Observation and Staff Officer transports by the 9th ID / USN Riverine Forces in Vietnam. I have the Masterpiece Models 1/35 ATC-H that I would like to put one on.

Similar to these settings, but w/an H-23.

Quoted Text

Topping Models made display models of the later Hiller helicopters, such as the Army H-23D Raven shown below. This helicopter is in 1:32 scale (12 1/2" rotor diameter) and is nicely detailed with cockpit interior features.

It looked pretty nice. Too bad Topping Models went out of business eons ago. If you can find one, I bet the seller would want an arm and a leg for it.
