Monogram Models: Kits Still Listed, Reissues and Vintage Boxes

What's listed on Amazon US right now

Only a handful of Monogram model kits are on Amazon US as new current stock, and those sell under the Revell brand. Most other Monogram listings are vintage or collector boxes from third-party sellers. There is no Monogram brand store on Amazon US.

That's the short version. Here's the longer one, from the listings our research opened on October 22, 2026.

• Live Monogram model listings found: 33, priced, in stock and deliverable
• Brand shown as Revell: 15 of those 33
• Brand shown as Monogram: 8
• Revell-Monogram or Revell/Monogram: 4, including two enamel paints
• Sold by Amazon: none; all third-party sellers, 19 of them

Several more listings we opened weren't live: no buy box, currently unavailable or no price. A search for the Monogram name also turns up aftermarket parts made for Revell and Monogram kits by other makers, books and catalogs, and unrelated products from a different company with a similar name. None of those are in the grid.

What Monogram made, as the listings show it

We couldn't open a first-party source on Monogram's history, so this section sticks to what the live listings show.

Monogram kits on Amazon US today cover:

• Car kits: 1/24 and 1/25, including 1990s race cars
• Aircraft kits: 1/32, 1/48 and 1/72
• Military kits: 1/32
• A science fiction kit: a Star Trek Voyager
• Enamel paints and a brush: under the Revell-Monogram name

What we didn't find: no new Monogram-branded airplane, ship or snap kits, and no Monogram glue or tools.

The nine Monogram kits in the grid

1/48 aircraft

• Heinkel He 111, #5509
• B-25J Mitchell
• P-47D Thunderbolt
• A-1H Skyraider, #5454
• A 1/48 kit listed as Me 1098: the title is short; read the listing photos for the subject

1/48 is a common aircraft scale, large enough for a detailed cockpit. A twin-engine bomber like the He 111 or the B-25J at 1/48 is a big model, with a wingspan well over a foot. Our data doesn't list finished sizes for these, so check the box before you plan a shelf.

1/32 aircraft

• Messerschmitt Bf 109G-4, Pro Modeler Series

Pro Modeler Series is the name on the listing. At 1/32, a single-engine WWII fighter is roughly a foot across the wings. It becomes a centerpiece, not part of a row.

Car kits

• 1:24 Testarossa Convertible: ages 10+, skill level 2, paint and glue required, not included
• 1:24 Ernie Irvan #28 Mac Tools Thunderbird: a race car
• Penzoil Pontiac 1991: spelled as the listing spells it

The Testarossa is the only kit in the grid with a stated age and skill level. Level 2 sits low on the scales makers use, so it suits a builder with a kit or two behind them. The two race cars are 1990s stock car subjects. Check each listing for decals, since a race car without its markings is just a car painted one color.

Where the kits are now: Revell

The listings show that part of the Monogram name now sells under the Revell brand. 15 of the 33 live listings showed Revell as the brand, with a link to the Revell store, and the manufacturer field on several named Revell or Revell-Monogram.

The current kits carrying the Monogram name that we found were Revell reissues: a '69 Z-28 Camaro, a '71 Hemi Cuda, a Classic Cruiser '57 Corvette and an '82 Corvette. The last three were new listings when we checked.

If you want a current kit rather than a vintage box, start on the Revell page. That's where its current car and aircraft kits are listed.

Monogram vs Revell on Amazon US

Most people who compare Monogram and Revell are asking a history question. Our data answers a shopping one.

What you see	Monogram name	Revell name
Brand store on Amazon US	none found	yes
New current kits	a few, as Revell reissues	yes, including those reissues
Vintage boxes	most Monogram listings	not checked here
Sold by Amazon	none in our data	not checked here

So for a new kit, the Revell brand is where the current listings are. For a specific older Monogram box, you're shopping vintage stock from third-party sellers, one box at a time.

How to check a vintage Monogram box

A vintage kit isn't a new kit with an old picture. It's a used object that hasn't been built yet, or one somebody hopes hasn't. Many of the Monogram listings in our data showed low stock, often a single box.

Before you buy, check six things on the listing:

1. Seller line: who ships it and who sells it
2. Condition note: new, sealed, open box or used
3. Photos of the contents, not only the lid
4. Bags: sealed runners or loose ones
5. Instructions: present, and complete
6. Decals: present, and how they look in the photos

A sealed box tells you more than an open one, but it can't tell you everything. Ask the seller if the listing doesn't say.

The listing photo is the only part of a vintage kit you can inspect before it arrives. Read it closely.

When the box arrives

Open it on a clean tray. Lay the bags out, find the parts list in the instructions and check runners against it before you cut anything. If something is missing, you want to know on day one, not at step 14.

Old decals can be fragile. Test one small decal from the sheet first, in a spot where nobody will see it if it breaks.

Building an older kit: what to expect

A Monogram box from decades ago is still plastic on runners, built with cement and paint like a new kit. A few things are different in practice.

The instructions. Older sheets may call for paint by color names or numbers from paint lines that have changed since. Match by name and by eye against a current paint chart, and write your substitutions on the sheet in pencil so you use the same ones throughout.

The fit. Plan for more test fitting than a recent kit might need. Hold parts together dry before you glue, and keep sanding sticks and a little filler on the bench for seams.

The decals. Test a small one first. If it breaks up in water, the sheet may need a coat of decal film before use, or replacement decals from the aftermarket.

The clear parts. Canopies and windows in an older box can be scratched from years of rattling around. Look at them before you start, not at the end.

None of this means a vintage kit is a worse build. It means it's a build with a history, and the history comes in the box.

What fits with what on a shelf

Scale decides which kits share a shelf. In the grid:

• The five 1/48 aircraft match other makers' 1/48 aircraft
• The 1/32 Bf 109G-4 stands alone; 48 divided by 32 is 1.5, so it's half again the length of the same plane at 1/48
• The 1:24 Testarossa and Thunderbird match other 1:24 cars

If your shelf is 1/25 American cars, the 1:24 Monogram cars will sit a touch larger than their neighbors. Most people won't notice. The person who built them will.

Buying a Monogram kit as a gift

A vintage Monogram box is a thoughtful gift for a builder who remembers the name. It's a riskier one for a builder you don't know well. Three questions help:

1. Do they want to build it or keep it sealed? Some people buy old boxes to keep them closed. Ask, or look at their shelf.
2. Do they have the paint and cement? The box won't include them.
3. Would a current kit do? A Revell reissue of a classic subject arrives as a new, unopened box from a current listing.

If you can't answer the first question, the reissue is the safer gift.

Alternatives for current kits

If a vintage Monogram box isn't what you want, the same subjects come from makers with current kits on Amazon US. For 1/24 and 1/25 cars, see model car kits, which lists AMT, MPC, Revell and others side by side. For more involved car builds, best model car kits for adults sorts them. For aircraft at 1/48 and 1/32, the model kits section page points to the makers that build them.

How to pick a Monogram kit

1. Decide new or vintage. New means a Revell reissue. Vintage means one box from one seller.
2. Pick the scale. 1/48 for most aircraft here, 1/32 for a large fighter, 1:24 for the cars.
3. Read the age and skill level, where stated. Only the Testarossa states both.
4. Plan paint and glue. The Testarossa says they're required. Assume the others need them too, and confirm on the listing.

Safety at the bench

Hobby knives and tools: Cut away from your body on a cutting mat, and keep blades away from kids.

Cement and paint: Work with good ventilation and follow the paint or cement maker's label for masks and gloves. The EPA lists paints, solvents and hobby supplies among household sources of volatile organic compounds and advises more ventilation and following label precautions.

The Testarossa states ages 10+. The other kits in the grid don't state an age in our data, so plan on an adult at the bench for younger builders.

Read the seller line first. The box art can wait its turn.
