Hi All,

Do any of you remember exactly how the very rare Revell PT-190 "Jack'O'Diamonds" looked like? I remember - as a very small boy - looking up on a shelf in my Uncle's house and seeing a built up kit of this and seeing a 20mm on the bow, roll-off torpedoes and a radar mast. I only saw it once and on the way out of the house and I never saw it again and that kit always intrigued me.

Do any of you remember how it looked?

Hi Garth...

Is it this one (not mine):


I know that this is an old Revell model (not 1/72)
An old friend of mine offered me one of this, of his stash a few years ago, although now, is in my stash
It needs some work to make a update decent model, imho (but workable!!!).

Hi Rui.

Nope, that's Revell's PT-212 kit, but I must say, whomever's that is; they certainly did a good job on such a bad kit.

The 190 was an incarnation of the 109 kit. That kit was released as the 109, 167 and the 109.

Hi Garth
Check the guy's on the Pt site.
PT Boats Inc at www.ptboats.org
The guy's have a lot of info & photo's I'm sure 1 of them can help you with what you need.
They were very helpful when I built my PT174 Zebra.

Yeah, I would ... thanks ... but that board is mostly about the boats, not the models, although I've noticed more of an influx of model stuff now. I might try that.

Hey, ...

Thanks for that tip ... it worked.

Garth
