Might these be the old molds from Eagle (Eaglewall) from Britain in the sixties? It's been a long time, but I remember their kits had very good detail and quality for that scale.

I built this kit in the 1980's when it was in an ESCI box. Some of the other Revell 1/1200 re-issued kits are from the same series.
