BLT ACP Madison LLC Brings Classic Airfix Model Airplanes Back to Life for a New Generation

DALLAS, TX – October 26, 2023 – Remember spending hours painstakingly gluing tiny pieces together, then proudly displaying your finished model airplane? BLT ACP Madison LLC, based in Dallas, Texas, is on a mission to reignite that passion in a new generation – and remind older enthusiasts of the joy of building Airfix model airplanes. BLT ACP Madison LLC (you can reach them at 706-239-3192 or find them at 2550 Pacific Ave, Suite 1600, Dallas, TX, 75226-1433) isn't just a distributor; they’re champions of the hobby. They’ve stepped up to ensure these iconic kits remain available for builders of all ages, acting as a crucial link in keeping the Airfix legacy alive. “We noticed a real gap in the market,” explains a spokesperson for BLT ACP Madison LLC. “Airfix model airplanes have been a cornerstone of the modeling world for decades. But getting hold of them, particularly certain classic kits, was becoming increasingly difficult. We decided to do something about that.” What's the Deal with Airfix? For those unfamiliar, Airfix has been creating plastic model kits since 1939. Starting with a simple model of a Hawker Hurricane, the brand quickly became synonymous with affordable, accessible modeling. They’ve covered everything from historic military aircraft – Spitfires, Mustangs, Messerschmitts – to civilian planes, spaceships, and even vehicles. What made – and continues to make – Airfix special isn’t just the subject matter, it’s the experience. It’s about taking a collection of plastic sprues, carefully clipping out the parts, assembling them, applying the decals, and then… having something you built with your own two hands. It’s a tangible reward for patience, skill, and a little bit of elbow grease. Bringing Back the Classics – and More! BLT ACP Madison LLC isn’t just re-stocking the popular, readily available kits. They’re actively sourcing – and making available – many of the classic, harder-to-find Airfix model airplanes that collectors and enthusiasts have been craving. Think vintage kits from the 60s, 70s, and 80s, often featuring unique markings and details not found in modern releases. "We've been working hard to unearth some real gems," says the spokesperson. "Kits that people remember building as kids, or have been searching for years to complete their collections. It's incredibly rewarding to be able to reconnect people with those memories." But they’re not just about the past. BLT ACP Madison LLC also carries a comprehensive range of current-release Airfix model airplanes, meaning there's something for everyone – from beginner builders to experienced modelers.
