The first period in the history of scale models production under FROG trademark was not a golden age yet; however, they managed to create more than a fair reserve. It was a time of not only mass design of their own molds but also active partnership with such firms as Comet and Renwal, who brought into being the models in very unusual scales, like 1/84 or 1/102. FROG kept face with them, literally making their models fit with standard box sizes.
However, FROG is best remembered for their airliner models in 1/96 and 1/144, most of which are collection rarities now. The same could be said of most of FROG ships, not to mention such super-rarity as Fairey Rotodyne kit which release was limited to 3000 sets.
In general, it was an interesting time, full of discoveries and great hopes…
