Rare Revell Models Find a New Home with APTOS II LLC

SPOKANE, WA – November 8, 2023 – For collectors and hobbyists, the hunt for pristine, vintage Revell models can be a lifelong passion. Now, that passion is getting a boost, thanks to APTOS II LLC, a Spokane-based company dedicated to sourcing and preserving these rare gems. Based at 2614 N Monroe St, Spokane, WA, 99205-3353, APTOS II LLC (reachable at 214-946-1880) is quickly becoming the go-to place for serious Revell collectors. Let’s be honest, finding Revell kits that haven't been started, are still in their original packaging, and in good condition is tough. Especially the really old ones. APTOS II LLC specializes in exactly that – unbuilt, vintage Revell model kits that are increasingly hard to come by. They’re not talking about the stuff you can find on any hobby shop shelf. We’re talking kits from the 50s, 60s, and 70s, sometimes even earlier. “We saw a real gap in the market,” explains a spokesperson for APTOS II LLC. “A lot of collectors have been searching for years for specific kits, and they’re just not available anywhere. We decided to dedicate ourselves to finding those kits, preserving them, and getting them into the hands of people who will appreciate them.” What Makes These Revell Models So Special? Revell, founded in 1941, has a long and storied history in the modeling world. The company initially focused on model airplanes, becoming a major player in the burgeoning hobby after World War II. But it wasn’t just the airplanes. Revell quickly expanded into cars, boats, trains, and even monster kits, capturing the imagination of a generation. What sets the older Revell kits apart isn't just their age. It's the details, the box art, and the overall feel of a simpler time. These weren't the super-detailed, computer-designed kits of today. They were often a little rough around the edges, requiring skill and ingenuity to build. But that's part of their charm. “There’s a real nostalgia factor with these kits,” says veteran model builder, Mark Henderson, who’s been collecting Revell models for over 40 years. “They remind me of my childhood, of spending hours in the garage with my dad, building these kits together. It’s more than just a hobby; it’s a connection to the past.” APTOS II LLC's Sourcing Process So, where does APTOS II LLC find these rare treasures? It's a combination of estate sales, auctions, online marketplaces, and a network of dedicated collectors.

We understand what collectors are looking for, and we strive to deliver the highest quality kits possible.” They’re not just looking for complete kits, either. Sometimes, they'll acquire kits with missing parts and then meticulously source replacements to restore them to their former glory. “It's a labor of love,” admits the spokesperson. “But we believe it’s worth it to preserve these pieces of history.” What Kind of Rare Revell Models are Available?
