SITE UPDATE! As Yahoo! Site Solutions is no longer being updated or maintained after today, Thursday 31 March 2022, IRMA will be moving to a new provider. This will take us some time, so please be patient. We will be listing kit release dates on our new site. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Just click on any of the above web sites to contact the manufacturer. Resin companies are usually small, in-house operations that really need your support. Each purchase you make from them helps to insure the continued existance of our hobby.
As many of you may know, resin manufacturer's are often the only source to find those rare, hard-to-find, one-of-a-kind kits. This is the reason why so many kits are short-run and often not repeated after a certain number or specified time period.
Below is a kit by ML LABS, INC. of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, U.S.A., from years ago. This little company made only six kits, three dinosaurs, Mt. Rushmore, "Old Smokey" and this one. Apparently this is the Roswell flying disk or other U.F.O. which crash-landed on planet Earth.
The kit was cast as a one-piece resin in HO/OO or 1/72 scale. All that was required was cleaning off the release agent and painting. No sanding, filing, filling or even glue. For about US $5.00 "back-in-the-day" this is a very unusual and interesting subject!
Model and photo by Zane R Nobbs
Soon we will be offering a search-service to help you find that elusive kit you have heard about, dreamed of, but just cannot find! Perhaps we can even get your desired kit on the market if it does not yet exist. So far we have helped bring at least five kits to production!
We can contact virtually all the major resin manufacturers, dealers, even individual collectors to help in your quest. Search fees will be reasonable with discounts for members. We can even arrange shipping, at cost, from this site.
Model by Jeffrey Blatz Photo by Zane R Nobbs
Here is a resin kit of the Diamond T "Doodlebug" fuel tanker from the 1930s. Designed by Howard W. Kizer, the unusual body was an attempt at streamlining. The engine was located at the back of the vehicle and the gear-shift, clutch and steering mechanism were all air-powered. At 26 feet long, fuel load was about 1,500 gallons. A very advanced approach for the 1930s.
This kit is cast by Jeffrey Blatz in HO/OO scale. The body is solid with separate wheels. Detail is excellent and assembly is very hobby friendly with five pieces to fit. You can find these kits on eBay under "herrblatz."
