Some exciting news.

We are importing the 1/72 Scale Eurocopter AS350 Écureuil/Squirrel and Twin Écureuil kits made by Duarte Models.

We may have a few at Scale ModelWorld in November!

Thank you for the heads up!

Does anyone know if this kit has anything with the 1/72 Mach-2 AS-350? If I do the research on ScaleMates, the Air Graphics Ecureuil is a Mach-2 rebox, which would not be good news.

A 1/35 Skycrane kit actually looks more like an Ecureuil than the Mach-2 kit does.

 

What would be nice though, Squirrel-and Duarte wise, is a rerelease of their 1/48 Twin Squirrel conversion:
