You did a nice job on this one .

Nice job on this one. I am about to start building this kit .

Beautiful

I agree.....so many to choose from AWESOME 👍

I still remember how I fell off the chair when this thing was released. 1/32 scale was still a novelty back then. I ended up buying and building the German version though, which came out right after this.

😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮 estas maquetas las hice hace años,tengo 4 de cada una aparte sin montar y ahora quecestan descatalogadas se cotizan altisimo de precio

WOW. Awesome stash. A lot of great kits.

I’m always going to WATCH this channel………, This episode / post just KILLED ME !!!!!!!!!! So many great kits, the MPC PROFILE Series was interesting… If that was your DADS stash , he had some great TASTE He must of had some great ideas for all those kits…. Would’ve liked to meet your DAD…………….. MODEL STASH ON ……. CHRIS 🇺🇸

Wow, that's an old kit. Not 100% accurate but darn close! Well done!

How durable is it?

Am about to start this kit. Looks like a simple but nice build. Just wish there were aftermarket cockpit and instrument panel 3D decals for it.

This kit was a dog -- I still have one. He built a beautiful model out of it.

Simplified kit.... a product of the early days of model making.

Yes....love the planes

The landing gear folds up!

I remember this and Revells Bf 109f in 1/32

Nice build. These old kits were great.

I prefer longer videos with some history but this is a start. I'll check back.

A fine build. I did many of Monogram's 1/48 planes in the mid-60's. They were all brush painted but looked good to me and were fun.

Your dad did a great job on this one! I built my share of these early Monogram kits when I was in grade school. What stands out to me is how they were almost designed to "double" as toys as well as displayable models. The non-scale, retractable landing gear, and the radio mast the thickness of a scale 2x4 are clearly designed to hold up to rough treatment. In many ways, it's too bad these kits are no longer available to serve as inexpensive kits for beginners, (and nostalgia builds for those of a "certain age.") Our local hobby shop recently bought-out an extensive collection that included many of these old Monogram aircraft kits; including many examples of the Bf-109E shown here. Though it definitely shows its age, I picked one up - as well as a contemporary Monogram Mitsubishi Zero - for a future project I have in mind that will mainly involve swapping-out the decals and color schemes to make a "What-If?" Japanese Bf-109E, and a Luftwaffe A6M Zero. These kits will serve well for such a "pencil sketch" project. Using the latest kits from Eduard or Tamiya would be more like an "oil-on-canvas" project . . . . Thanks for sharing! 6th Like.

HOLY MACARONI …. I built this kit in 1970, one of my first… Loved the retractable landing gear… It flew many a combat mission throughout my parents house I must have painted it a few times, changed colors and markings… Played with it so much, broke it one too many times… In the garbage it went………… NOW, I have this kit on the shelf… Still in it’s original BBB box with the BOXART top Still in the Shrink Wrap from the factory… I’m never going to build it, it’s on the shelf just for SHOW….

Dad might be cool af

👍 nice. Hope you have him still around

I LIKE IT…………. CHRIS 🇺🇸

I appreciate your information but I’m not CZcams savvy so I don’t know how to do my own CZcams channel. But I will share with your subscribers any of my builds 😊

Good video!!! Built this kit numerous times in the 1990s when was getting back into modeling while battling alcoholism. There is a hobby shop in Indianapolis, IN, that specializes in these ancient Tamiya (and other brands) kits, but they do ask a pretty penny or two for them. I always try to visit that shop whenever am in the area and sometimes will talk myself into buying a kit or two, not that I really need them added to the stash.

Nice build. I always liked that kit. Wish it was repopped.

I built one or two of these when I was in Grade School and Junior High (that last one came in the square box with a vacuform diorama base.) I always liked the 'futuristic' look of this tank. As a matter of curiosity, what is the condition of the vinyl tracks? Sadly, I heard that Atlantis does not have the tooling for this one. Thanks for sharing! 5th Like.

I WANT THIS KIT !!!!! I liked building AURORA TANKS…. I have a few in the stash, and a few repops from other kit manufacturers I’ll watch this again You have my like ( always )…. VINTAGE MODEL ON……… CHRIS 🇺🇸

I used the 1966 Panther to make a Bergpather as it was rear drive leaving the front drivers area open for a driver’s compartment using a Tiger 1 for the control and radio area. And scratch built the winch box and rear spade and ran the control wires through the rear toolbox to a plug that could be attached for operation and unplugged for display. I won a Silver medal in my State contest.

I've been modelling since 1966-67, built this a number of times, F-4D version is the only survivor at present as I have a 'few' of my fave F-4 kit in the stash including an Airfix Craftmaster version. I know it's shortcomings and I'll do a couple "fully corrected" and some OOB. The model in this vid would be in my "to be repaired" box, easy fix or total rebuild, serious fun!!! Cool vid too!!

Very nice 😎welljell😭😭.

These are all beautiful kits that in many ways are ahead of their time. Your father (and you, yourself) have great taste in classic plastic. Thanks for sharing this with us! 14th Like.

It’s always FUN to look at kits Sometimes when I’m not really up to building ( Mojo isn’t there ) I just open up a storage container with some of my stash in it…. And I REDISCOVER WHAT I HAVE !!!!!!! Sometimes I forget what I have Get really SURPRISED at what I Find 😃 IT IS FUN !!!!!!!!!!! VINTAGE MODELS ON ….. CHRIS 🇺🇸

Awesome. Yes, Tamiya did make it confusing with their numbering system, and some even re-numbered. Add to it as you stated remote control. motorized. static. Nice to see those kits again. Thanks for posting the pictures.

Have seen these on sale at a local hobby shop in the KCMO area ad in the Indianapolis area. Crazy amount of money wanted for these kits. Nice to actually see one opened up!!

Gotta love the TAMIYA BOX ART I never built any 1/25 Remote Control Kits… They were out of my price range as a little kid…. BUT, I always looked at them when I went to the HOBBY STORE, and Department Stores ( K-Mart ) I bet they were fun to build and move around the ground… The big 1/16th kits are popular now THANKS VINTAGE MODELS ON……. CHRIS 🇺🇸

I have one but its missing parts, do you know where i could find any?

To build or not to build ..

This is the first 1/25 series model Tank I bought since 1969.

This is another kit I didn’t build… When I started building models 1970, I had to earn the money to purchase model kits This one was out of my price range… But, when I looked through the J.C. PENNIES CHRISTMAS CATALOG…. These kits were in there…. They were on my CHRISTMAS LIST…. BUT Santa Claus didn’t deliver 🤣😂😅…… TAMIYA makes some great kits I still build the old stuff…….. You have my like 👍 VINTAGE MODELS ON…. CHRIS 🇺🇸

Thanks for sharing a look at another Tamiya classic. Tamiya sure did have a strange number system for their armour kits. Tamiya art work back then was great. They new that box art sells kits.

Thank you for another review of a classic, Armor kit! These 1/25th scale Tamiya kits are well-detailed, feature individual track links, but suffer from a lack of accessories (though I did notice that in-scale Jerry Cans were provided) needed to build a diorama display. Thanks for sharing this with us! 9th Like.
