Meng Model plastic kits

Meng 1/35 Magach 6B Gal

From the outset, Meng's "Magach" (rampage) 6B is a promising kit. A detailed kit of the Israeli adaptation to the M60A1 with enhanced armor to meet increasing threats in the battle field. The fit of parts is very good and the [...]

Phantom 1/48 F-4G "Wild Weasel"

The Phabolous Phantom as a Wild Weasel both by Hasegawa and Meng. Hasegawa's Phantom is presented it the first three photographs and the Meng Phantom follows. The Meng kit is much better engineered and more detailed. It also includes more [...]

I was given this kit for my birthday and was advised to do it in the red livery of Manfred Von Richthofen, so here it is. The kit was a pleasure to build and I included Quinta Studio interior 3D decals as well as Gaspatch machine guns and [...]

VsKfz 617 Minenraumer "Build as a Kid" Meng 1/35

My local IPMS chapter decided to do a "Build like you did as a kid" group build. Basic idea is to pick a kit and build it in a straight shot. Paint is optional. I thought it would be a good time and checked the stack of kits. I [...]

Meng 1/35 AH-64D Apache Longbow Attack Helicopter

Hello fellow modelers! How ironic that I got back into modeling in 2020 during COVID to keep my sanity and I'm now wrestling with my 3rd round of COVID as I finished this build. Such is the world we now live in. But sick time and holiday [...]
