Favorite helicopter kits?
Hello!
I'm new here, but not new to paper modelling. I'll create a build thread for a build I'm going to start soon, not to worry! In the meantime, I'm wondering if there are any decent paper helicopter kits out there. I'm guessing Halinski or GPM have a few, but I haven't had much luck. So I reach out to the experts. Do you guys know of any? |

Keep in mind when hunting Hinds
There are 3 versions, 1996, 2009 and 2013 The 1996 version is the "simplest" one, low parts count of about 1200, but also first generation digital, more of a tracing of a hand drawn kit The 2009 version has more detail, somewhere around 2100-2400 parts. The 2013 version has the most detail and parts, 3200+ Your mileage will definitely vary

The Hokum however has not been updated
Similar in vintage as the 1996 Hind
