FROG Trail Blasers R100 Airship (1965)
The FROG company decided to produce the model of this famous airship, and by the end of 1965 has presented the kit in 1:500 scale in Trail Blazers series. It has received F128 catalog index and box name “R-100 Airship”.
The kit was packed in F2 box type, along with simple decal, containing airship’s name, civil registration code and window imitation (smaller windows omitted, only the biggest ones). As a bonus, the sticker, depicting R-100 in flight, was included.
Unlike the airplane, sitting on a tarmac on its own undercarriage, the airship demands some stand to be presented properly. And here, FROG decided to depart from it’s standard V-shaped stand design, by making a model of Montreal airship mooring mast model, placed on a cardboard square lawn. The airship is linked to the mooring mast by means of L-shaped rod. The vertical part of the rod is concealed in the mooring mast while horizontal part is inserted into airship’s shell.
Another interesting fact about F128 kit is that the mooring mast’s parts count is higher than the R100 airship itself.
Despite some simplifications and inaccuracies, the airship’s assembled 1:500 scale desktop model looks were stunning. Unfortunately, the R-100 kit was in production for only six years and only in limited runs – there were only 25000 copies produced during 1965-1970 period (including UPC repacks with “Air Ship R-100 with mooring” box name). This kit was already a rarity in the times of its production!

Only a few left!
- Original Aurora Comic Scenes Batman plastic model kit.
- This is a scarce foreign issue kit.
- There are several differences between the U.S. kit and the foreign issue: Rather than a one-piece box with a flap lid like the U.S. kit, the foreign version is a two-piece box, with a lid and bottom, similar in construction to a 1972 glow monster kit. The words 'Comic Scenes' do not appear on the box top, only on the side panels. There is no comic inside - just an instructions booklet. Also, please note that the artwork on the side panels is not accurate - the word "BATMAN" is not molded into the tree trunk.
Box Top panelhas very small tear - left hand side panel has some water stains.
