Viasistina Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Does anyone have any information on this company? Are they still in business? Are their kits still available? I actually bought an Astrokit AB-212 at an air show in the Netherlands years ago. I recently saw some nice build-ups of a Marina Sea King. It appears they remix others' molds with new decals and resin parts for Italian machines. I'd like to get my hands on a Sea King. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paolo Maglio Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Astrokit is the company that also produces Lifecolour paints and it is still alive. In the past it used to rebox some Fujimi kit adding some resin bits to convert them to Italian variants. I think they stopped doing that several years ago but their models are still available in shops. If you want I can check my local hobby shop, are you after a 72 scale Sea King?
