Monogram’s Green Hornet kit is considered to be among the earliest all-plastic model kits mass-produced for public consumption. Originally issued in 1960 under the kit number of PC-61, it was later re-issued in 1996 with the number 85-0061. The original box art (and kit number) remained the same, however there were a few discrepancies between the box art description and instruction sheet.

 

For the Modeler: This review covers the 1996 release of the MONOGRAM Re-release (Re-Pop) of the Green Hornet Model T Show Car. This is Kit number 85-0061 and also PC61. It has long been out of production but can be found in the secondary market. This was well 1 before the Skill Level ratings and I would rate this as a Skill Level 4 for a moderate builder. The build itself is quite simplistic and only has 76 parts molded in Green, Chrome, Black and Clear. There is a Waterslide decal sheet and Stickers for Whitewall tires. The instructions are quite unique in the fact it is a written step by step build process with actual photos of the model NOT artwork. The motor is missing most of the details to make it correct, it is a basic block with a huge intake. The frame consists of straight rails that have a simple suspension attached to it. The interior is merely a seat. The body has multiple parts and a choice of decal designs. The tires are two part plastic. Overall this is a “Show Rod” build with low realism and detail. Overall dimensions are: Length: 6”, Width: 3”, Height: 2-1/2”.
