Aha! I stand corrected. In that case, it was the Revell kit that I built. I have forgotten what the box looked like so I went online and found it - red-outlined photo of the built model on a blue background.
That's the one.

Cheers,

Here in the U.S. there are quite a few versions of the Uhu available bearing the Revell name. They range in price from a few dollars to more than $20 on eBay.

I addition to my old Lindberg kit, I am almost finished building this one too:

Mine is being built "gear-up" to be displayed on a stand.

In my stash pile I have two of this one:

Neil's model just looks the part. Considering it's a old build that's been repaired, it's amazing to me how nice it really looks. Looks 100% better than any of the IXO/Warmaster die-cast models of the Uhu out there.

That's a big compliment for my Uhu Pnmaker, thank you :beer:
That's the 1983 release of the Revell '219 you built 'way back', it's kit Nr.4127 Skypirate 8-)
I should mention that when released in 1966 the Revell '219 was kit H-112 which pnmaker said he has two of in the stash, lucky fella :pilot:

Great camo on your Heinkel there, but those aerials on the front look very vunerable ;-)

Good work.
