Review Summary

The reviews highlight a mix of opinions on this model kit, with many appreciating its affordability, fun build process, and detailed representation of a Vietnam War-era helicopter, though some note it requires patience due to fit issues and fragile parts. Common challenges include warped pieces, poor part alignment, especially with fuselage halves and clear windows, and the need for sanding or putty to address gaps. While suitable for beginners and experienced modelers alike, the kit often demands extra effort or aftermarket additions for accuracy and a polished finish.

Good for beginners

By: sbplane

This is a good model for beginners. It is a simple and fun kit. The parts are dark olive drab and the kit contains 2 pilot figures. Part fit is not all that great and some of the pieces require sanding while some of the seams need some putty to fill-in the gaps. The biggest fit problems were with the clear pieces; you got to do a lot of dry fitting before gluing these pieces. On the bottom you will have several holes and gaps as there are no parts to cover them. The seats require some work as they lack detail; you got to add some cushions and other parts to make them look a little more realistic. I was happy with the decals, they went on perfectly with a little help from Micro Set and Micro Sol decal solution. All and all not a bad kit considering the price.

Huey Hog

By: skippykeesler (Worden ILL)

Although a rather dated offering from Revell, this model does build up into a nice representation of the UH-1B/C Huey Gunship wich serve so well in the early days of the Vietnam war prior to the arrival of the AH-1 cobra. The decal sheet offers a interesting subject. My kit had only minor flash,maybe from an earlier production run. But none the less the modle goes toghether quite nicely and offers a nice weapons load.All in all still a nice model which should not be difficult to build for any modeler.And you can not beat the price. Recommended.

Excellent Kit, recommended

By: gohawksblake

This is a very, very well made kit. It accurately represents a Bell UH-1C helicopter. It has a great price and was a fun build. Recommended for all skill levels.
