Hi Patrick

I am mostly interested in 1/48 so I cannot say the exact production year, but the original Kit (a He 177 A-5 IIRC) is not as old (just some years) this is a variation of this kit.

HTH

cheers

I recently bought the A-5 version and it looks like a very good kit with good details. It does not look like an old kit.
I have not build it yet so cannot say anything about the fit.

Just remember no swatikas are included on the decal sheet due to legal restrictions so those you will have to buy separately.
