Instructions needed

Is this the 1/72 scale one? If so, I have the reissue.

Thanks RobG, I should have put it in my post, but this is the 1/48 scale kit

If that's the 1/48 with the bumbleebee insignia (VA-176?) I have it. I haven't unpacked anything after the March move, but it's in there.

Same old story - picked up a kit at my local model club meeting - seems complete, but no instructions.

It's a 1/72 ME 262 B (2 seat) - Gray plastic, raised panel lines, 4 sprues (no mfg. listed), decals are for a red 8 or 12 and printed by InTech.

Does anyone have directions they could mail or e-mail?

Thanks.

hehe, if it's the johan, i know 2 people who have them. right, rob?

Sounds like the old Heller kit.

I've no instructions but if I remember the kit correctly, they're not really needed. 'Cept that considerable weight in the nose is required if you want the thing to sit on it's landing gear.

Cheers,

Actually this is the U.S.Air Force version, but I'm pretty sure the kits are virtually the same, so these instructions would fit the bill. And I understand about moveing, I'm in the process of getting ready to do just that, which is how I found these missing.

OK, I'll get them dug ot and scanned or copied. Send me a legit email or street address please.

Sorry for the messed up post. As was said above its the old heller kit,and is easy to build without the instructions. But if you need em and can't find the heller instructions,Smer repackaged it too,and that kit is still readily available.

If it is the old Heller kit, I should have those instructions as well as the Airfix, Johan and Revell of Germany Me 262 instructions. I do have a Matchbox one, but I do not see it in the stash.

As far as I can recall, neither Airfix nor Revell nor Matchbox ever did a two-seat Me 262B kit - theirs were all the single seat "A" models.

And the Johan kit could be built as either an "A" or "B" model and had deeply incised panel lines - they probably scaled out to 1" gaps - rather than the raised panel lines described in the original post.

Heller (or the Aurora or Smer reissue) it almost certainly is.

Cheers,

You can make that at least three.

yup. might even be 4. it's a nice little kit. some minor mods it should build up nice.

The new Revell Me 262 from the late 90s is/was available in a 2 seat B version in addition to the single seat A.

OK, then disregard. I do not have the right one among my stash. Sorry.

E-mail me direct. I have all of the kits mentioned and can send you a copy of the instructions. I don't have scanning available at the moment so I'll send by snail mail.
