Smile Soviet Paper Models -- Can Anyone Identify?

I have four of these Soviet card models of fighter jets in the collection of paper models I inherited from my father. I've been selling the models on eBay, but I don't even know where to begin researching these. Any information, even just the brand name, would be super helpful.

The cover art/fonts make me think it is from the company Peleng, or Bearing?

It certainly looks a lot like the Peleng kits.

Googled Peleng 1:48 and found several kits for download for free but have not been able to find any original kits for sale. Can anyone give me a rough idea how much one of these kits would sell for? Thanks.

Well those Peleng kits you found "for free" are most likely pirated scanned copies.

as for pricing, I would suggest looking for other publishers from behind the Iron Curtain, and see what the original kit would go for, Mon comes to mind , and I sure there are others

Besides Peleng, MON and Bearing kits are also very difficult to find on eBay or anywhere else. On a quick search today none appeared.

I guess the price of the kits Stephie has would vary wildly depending on who wishes them.

If kits released by FlyModel can be used as a measure... prices also vary. There are a couple of FlyModel 1:33 Mig 23 on eBay at different prices. One at U$12 and another at U$33

Also thinking on old eastern Europe kits, a 1985 Maly Modelarz 1:33 Mig 25 is selling on eBay for U$9

Is a bit difficult to properly appraise those kits.


Maybe Stephie could list the kits and offer them here. There may be collectors interested willing to pay a fair price for them.

papermodelstore is selling original Mon kits starting at $99, all the way up to $200
so that might be a starting point
