Welcome to Vintage Airfix

"A website dedicated to Airfix fans the world over"

Hello and welcome to Vintage Airfix. My name is Dan Parish and as a lifelong lover of Airfix I have always been astonished by the scope of plastic scale models produced by this British company whose name has become synonymous with the hobby. A plastic model is often simply referred to as "an Airfix kit" even if made by another manufacturer. Airfix is the oldest UK manufacturer of plastic scale model kits and has been producing kits for the mass market since 1952. Now under the ownership of Hornby Hobbies Ltd, the Airfix brand goes from strength to strength whilst remaining one of the world's most recognisable and best-loved toy brands.

Brands under the Hornby Hobbies Ltd umbrella. Airfix, Arnold, Corgi, Scalextric, Electrotren, Hornby Railways, Humbrol, Jouef, Lima and Rivarossi

This site lists the contents of all the Airfix catalogues from 1962 to the present day. Each kit listed on Vintage Airfix has the catalogue, or patent, number that the kit appears as and which catalogue it appeared in.

Vintage Airfix is compiled and owned by an Airfix enthusiast for Airfix enthusiasts worldwide to help them rekindle that childhood memory and learn a little bit more about Airfix and the kits they've produced over the years.
