I recently wrote a review of the Heller/Airfix Peugeot 905, largely because this model had such a bad reputation that I did not understand. I found out that there are good and bad examples of this model. Anyway, if you're interested:

If you have something to add or correct, please post it here.

Think it deeply depends from the hands building it.
There are modellers used to build up very well ugly resin kits,die cast, or even extreme hardcorers as our SB or the frenchman making the Talbot.
Today standards are very high,we all are used to incredibly nice and detailed models,forgetting the real spirit of true modelling.Nearly everything is not good enough (of it if is..is too easy).

For me the 905 is a good kit,meant to be mostly curbside.IMHO It only lacks in decals sheet, but there are spare better ones around.

Just my 2cents btw.

Robdebi - I also have picked up this kit a while back - not sure if I'll build it - it's in my pile with the Revell Germany Audi R-10 - John

Thanks for the review.

I have always heard this was/is not a good kit but I'm still looking forward to building mine one day.

You don't say in your review which release you had on hand to review. I have three of the Airfix release/boxing. What example did you use in your review.

Thanks

Mine is an Airfix example, as mentioned twice in the text :smile:

Thanks for the review Rob,

Have to agree, I built the Heller version back when it was first released and though I was disappointed with it, it wasn't because of terrible fit issues, mostly because of the lack of detail. Probably best left as a curbside.

Dante's rarely mentioned 10 circle of Hell consists of 1 tube of Testor's glue, a cheap paintbrush, 1 dull X-acto blade and a Heller/Arifix 905...
