Last September my wife asked me what I wanted for Christmas. I blurted out 1/32 scale He111 or Ju88. I thought story over. But lo and behold Christmas morning 2 very large packages under the tree. I felt like I was 12 again. As I tore the wrapping off I saw what I didn't expect, a Pro-Modeler logo instead of Revell. After all that to my question, Are these the same kits only boxed differently, and will the aftermarket do-dads work? I thank everyone for reading this long post for a simple question. But I thought there was a story behind it. Be careful of what you ask for! Next time it might be socks

Pro Modeller is/was a "premium" brand of Revell/Monogram. You often get an extra sprue of ground crew figures or extra markings or other goodies as well as an enhanced instruction booklet but the basic plastic of the kit will be exactly the same. You've got Revell kits by another name
