Heller Model Kits for sale
Heller Model Kits, founded in 1957 by the French company Heller S.A., quickly became a prominent name in the model kit industry. Initially focused on producing wooden models, Heller transitioned to plastic kits in the 1960s, gaining recognition for their innovative designs and high-quality craftsmanship.
One of their most notable early releases was the 1/72 Scale Lockheed Constellation, which showcased Heller's commitment to detail and accuracy. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Heller expanded its lineup to include a diverse range of subjects, such as military vehicles, ships, and aircraft, with popular models like the 1/400 Scale French Aircraft Carrier Charles de Gaulle and the 1/35 Scale Renault R35 Tank.
In the 1990s, Heller faced financial challenges but continued to produce kits that appealed to both novice and experienced builders. Today, Heller remains a respected name in the modeling community, celebrated for its rich history and dedication to quality.

The hull halves are also painted copper below the waterline and airbrushed the correct three yellow stripes across the gun ports as shown on the box art.
