What is the oldest original kit in your stash?

[LSP_Mike 4,598]

Rummaging thru the stash, thought there might be some interesting responses. I have a few original Revells, an original Hasegawa, and a Hawk San Francisco Cable car. I have some old Tamiya armor too.

Still have a couple original issue Star Wars Speeder Bike kits, one from about 1978, and another from the early 80s.

I don't think I'd hesitate to say that it's this Peterbilt truck kit. Purchased when I was just a pup, and found in the attic many, many years later.

I forgot I have one of those.

The Pirates kit is cool, and I sure remember the 10 speed.

The 10 speed will be re-released this year (Round 2).

I think the oldest kit I have is the 1:48 Monogram Devastator. It's actually a very nice kit, better than most of its day, released in 1974. I built it in grade school, probably 1976 or 1977. I don't remember where or when I picked up this one but it is in fantastic shape, complete with the Shepherd Paine diorama tips and techniques supplement.

I don't have anything very old.  I think I don't have anything older than 2000.

The oldest original kit in my stash is a Revell Japan release of their Beaufighter.

Revell No. 03019 Panzerkampfwagen V Panther Ausf. A (Sd.Kfz.171)1:35

Remember when I bought this model more than 20 years ago:) It was like yesterday !

After all this time I couldn’t manage to find any information about the Panther from the box art!
