Model Forum / General / Models / March 2006

I was at the hobby shop today and four kits with the "HAWK Models" logo
caught my eye.  Yes, this is the same HAWK Models from the '60s.  The
four kits were similiar to the "Weird-Ohs" type kits and featured
teenagers from the '60s in humorous settings in some way connected with
the pop music of the day.  One of the kits features two musician
figures that looked strikingly "Beatle-esque".  I don't recall ever
seeing these kits before so I'm thinking they date from the early '60s.
Although the HAWK logo was on the box, the models were newly produced
by another company I've never heard of before (and I can't remember the
company name).  Anyway, it was kind of neat to see HAWK Models back on
the shelves again.
