Scale Modelling

A lot of members build their own 104s in verious scales, in plastic, in wood or even have them remotely controlled with jet-engines. This section tries to give some informations, backgrounds and products on the 104 scale-model scene.

Beneath an overview of all the Major Manufacturers models. There are also kits made by: Ahm, Artidlast, Busch, Fuji, Hema, Kinetic, Marusan, Paramount, Otaki, Rmm, Sankyo, Sanwa, & Starfix. These have not (yet) been included in the list. People interested in old kits should consult: "The Collectors Value Guide for Scale Model Plastic Kits", by John W. Burns, 5th edition, 1991. Do you have a scan of a box not found in the lists please share it with all of us.

We are also looking for someone interested in managing this section on our website because currently we have too less resources to keep this pages around scale modeling up-to-date!!

The following webpages are dedicated to scale modeling - categorized by specific area to choose from:
