Rye Field Models
Rye Field Model (RFM) is a Hong Kong-based manufacturer of plastic scale model kits, established in the mid-2010s with the goal of producing high-precision, highly detailed military vehicle kits. In a relatively short time, the brand has built a strong reputation among armour modellers for its engineering ambition, frequently including features as standard that other manufacturers reserve for expensive aftermarket sets. RFM specialises in 1/35 scale subjects, with a particular focus on WWII German armour and modern main battle tanks.
The Rye Field Model catalogue covers iconic subjects such as the Tiger I, Panther, King Tiger, Sherman and the modern M1 Abrams and Leopard 2, frequently with multiple variants and production versions. A defining feature of the range is the inclusion of full interior detail on many kits, allowing the engine, transmission and fighting compartment to be built and displayed, along with workable individual-link tracks, posable suspension and movable hatches. RFM also produces simplified versions of selected subjects without interiors for those who prefer a more straightforward build. Photo-etched parts and detailed instructions are typically included.
At Wonderland Models, we stock a selection of Rye Field Model kits. Shop securely online for express shipping or visit our in-store experts in Edinburgh for personalised advice.
