Can someone here help me?

Back in the mid-1960s, I was given a 1:72 kit of a Soviet PT/MTB ... from my memory, the hull (deep blue plastic) reminded me of the Revell PT-109 kit. And the deck, again, from a little boy's memory, was screwed, with tiny screws, to the hull.

I'm thinking it was of a P-6 - But, I don't remember ...

Does anyone know or remember this kit?

And - no it was not the cheap kit which used the same hull of the Revell Higgins kit.

I've been told that it could possibly be a T3 Kosmolet type ...................

I was just told that it was by UPC.

Hello Garth,

This what you are referring to:

USSR P8 No:915

Cheers,
Joe

Thank you, Joe.

But, I don't think it was that kit.

And then there was this one, by Tamiya.

Battery operated kit, deck held down by 2 screws.

PT 9

Hi Joe,

Thanks, Joe.

Unfortunately, that's not it either.

It's not part of that series from UPC. The model from my childhood (I can still remember playing with it in the bathroom sink after my folks got it for me at a store called RAILROAD SALVAGE) ...

It was as long as the Revell PT-109 kit, which, from my memory - it looked like ... and was just as sleek looking.

I dunno guys ....

Gareth,

I have a friend who specializes in old kits. Let me run this by him.

Thank you, Frederick.

Old Model Kits.com had it and here it is: UPC USSR Patrol Torpedo Boat PT-8 !

Hi Fred,

I already suggested that kit to Garth in my original reply




and Garth stated that it is not the kit.

See top of this post.

Cheers,
Joe
