UDT 35 scale Revell the Revell kit has a long pedigree being first released by Monogram in 1959. In those days it came in multi-
coloured plastic and was clearly more of a toy than an accurate model (the hull and frogmen will float). The most
recent re-release in 2012 did not seem to sell well in the UK and kits can still be found, often at discount
prices.
Plus points: The kit is as much a set of figures with a boat as a boat with crew figures.
Negative points: The fit of parts is not good. There are a lot of sink marks. The figures are not poseable. The facemasks of the
frogmen are not flat. I regret not having made flat inserts to simulate the appearance of flat glass. A lot of the
detail is crude and reveals the age of the kit.
Conclusions: I remember this was a nice toy in the early 60's.
