The Revell ’58 Thunderbird 2n1 kit is actually a re-issue of the original Monogram kit in 1\/24th scale introduced in 1987, although the copyright info inscribed on the latest re-issue dates it to 1964. I think ’87 is more accurate. An “Elvira” ‘Bird was also included in this series.<\/span><\/p>\n

I was issued a challenge to build not only this latest issue (left above), but the ’87 issue (right above) as well…kind of like a “comparo review”. I eagerly accepted the challenge. I could build the new issue as a custom and the older one as a stock vehicle, or, as I soon decided, build them together stock as a “His-n-Hers” duo. Since I’m not a big fan of customs, I chose the latter of the two options.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the Modeler: Even though this is an older kit that has had some upgrades there are still some fit and assembly issues that need to be addressed before settling on this one for your next contest entry. If you want to get a top notch model from these T-Birds you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll need to heed the advice offered in this review.<\/span><\/p>\n
