Man seeing these old Heller kits here almost make me sick with melancholy! I can still remember being a young lad and studying the roughly painted boxart on this series, which beside the Lama also had the Alouette III (which was way bigger than the 1:48/ 1:50 scale as was said on the box!), the Puma, Ecureuil, Frelon, Gazelle and Dauphin SA365/ 360. Awesome kits, of nice civil subjects. A far cry from most today's model manufacturers' tendency to merely release Apaches, Hueys, Lynxes and Black Hawks!
Some of these Heller kits were rereleased in the '80's (instead of the sketch like boxart, the boxes had pictures of the real machines on them), the Lama was in Wucher Air livery iirc.
