Hello, I recently found a decal kit of the Benetton B191 at hiroboy.
http://www.hiroboy.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=2550
Can anyone tell me, what model kit that is, which is used to display the decals? It is not Studio27, as that is curbside.

That decal sheet is produced by a company called Museum Collection. It appears to be a set for those who would like to have a go at converting Tamiya's B192 into a B191.

If it's 1/20 plastic than it's the Tamiya kit.

Hm, Tamiya made a 1:20 B191?
It is definately not a B192, I have built that kit.

It was already pointed out that the decals are for a Benetton B192 kit to be transformed in B191!

If it's not the Tamiya B192 than it's not a 1/20th plastic kit.
If it's a 1/24 scale kit than there is a Wave and a Hasegawa kit.

And BTW Google is free for everyone.

If the decals are 1/20 there is no kit...you will have to transform/kitbash/modify the tamiya B192

Oh please, do you really think I did not search with google?
If you suggest it, I suppose you have a result for me?
If not, please do not write that again, I spent a lot of time searching for a 1:20 B191 and the only one I found is the Studio27 one. Which I think I will get ;)

The model in question is Tamiya's B192 plastic kit being modified into B191. It's a stalled project done by the Museum Collection guy himself. He says it's been sitting like that since clear-coating was done.

I can't be the only person to see that the question has been answered already in the very first reply.

No you're not, but the thread starter thought he knew better and in his opinion it wasn't the Tamiya B191 kit.

I admit I overlooked the information it was a Tamiya B192 kit, but I am correct that Tamiya never did a B191 kit.
And now lets all cool down and have a beer ;)
