Gecko Models
Gecko Models is a Hong Kong-based manufacturer of military scale model kits, known for producing finely detailed subjects in 1/35 and 1/16 scales. The brand has carved out a distinctive niche by focusing heavily on British and American military vehicles, figures and diorama accessories from World War II, the Cold War and modern periods. Gecko kits are widely praised for their crisp moulding, thoughtful engineering, excellent part fit and historically accurate detail, making them popular with collectors, military modellers and diorama builders alike.
The Gecko catalogue includes a range of subjects that other manufacturers rarely cover. British vehicles feature prominently, with kits of the Universal Carrier, Daimler Armoured Car, and Cruiser Tank Mk.II, Matilda A11, Bedford MWC water bowser and the FV107 Scimitar CVR(T). American subjects include paratroop figures, Navy SEALs and equipment sets. The range is complemented by detailed figure sets, stretcher teams, ammunition box sets and diorama accessories that allow modellers to build complete scenes with historical depth. Full-colour painting guides and clear illustrated instructions support the build process throughout.
