The History Behind MPC

MPC, short for Model Products Corporation, was founded in 1963 by George Toteff and a group of former AMT employees working out of Mount Clemens, Michigan. The new company’s first release was a 1/25 scale 1964 Chevy Corvette, a direct challenge to AMT’s own Corvette kits.

Through the 1960s and 70s, MPC built its name with the Gangbusters series of prohibition-era cars and a steady run of muscle car kits pulled straight from Detroit showrooms. Licensing deals for Star Wars and The Dukes of Hazzard followed, and the General Lee ’69 Charger became one of the best-selling 1/25 scale car kits ever produced.

After passing through several owners over the decades, the MPC name went quiet before Round 2 revived the brand in 2008 and bought its original tooling outright in 2012. Today’s MPC catalog covers muscle cars, gassers and trucks, often reissued from molds cut decades ago and updated with new parts for builders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about scale, skill level, parts and where to find the latest MPC releases.

What scale are MPC model kits built in?

Most MPC kits are built in 1/25 scale, the standard size for American car models. A handful of older reissues use 1/24 or other scales, so it’s worth checking the box before ordering.

What skill level do MPC kits require?

MPC kits are generally rated Level 2 or Level 3, meaning some prior experience with glue, paint and decals helps. First-time builders can still work through them with patience, but they aren’t the simplest snap-together kits available.

Are MPC and AMT model kits the same thing?

MPC and AMT are separate brands, though both are now part of Round 2’s hobby lineup and sometimes share tooling or parts. MPC leans toward muscle cars, gassers and drag racing subjects, while AMT covers a wider range of American vehicles.

Do MPC kits include paint, glue or tools?

No. MPC kits include plastic parts, decals and instructions only. Builders supply their own plastic cement, paint and basic tools such as clippers and a hobby knife.

How often are new MPC kits released?

New releases and reissues come out through the year, often timed around hobby trade shows. Checking back periodically is the best way to catch limited runs before they go out of production again.

Where can I find official MPC model kits?

MPC kits are sold through hobby shops and online retailers carrying Round 2 products, as well as listed directly on the official MPC website along with current and upcoming releases.

What Builders Are Saying

Honest feedback from people who’ve put these kits together on their own workbenches.

Built the ’57 Chevy gasser kit over a weekend. Some flash on the smaller parts, but the body lines are spot on next to my old AMT builds.

Woman with windblown hair

Rachel M.

Picked up the Dodge pickup with the minibike. Fit was decent for an older mold, needed sanding around the doors, but it turned out solid.

First MPC kit in years for me. The funny car body has great detail, though the decals are thin and tear if you’re not careful with them.
