Don't know anything about a Meng kit, but Takom makes one. It is presently in stock at Squadron and Spruebrothers.

Umm...the title isn't very enlightening. What do you mean by

"Anyone heard anything on a Meng Mark 1 Male"

It would help to be a bit more specific so as not to waste peoples time.

I'm not sure about Meng, but the Takom Mark 1 Male is a very nice kit. With the same exception of the too narrow drivers cab, it looks very accurate and should build up nicely.

If the cab size is a problem, MR Modelbau makes a correction set as well.

I haven't heard or seen any rumors about Meng doing a Mk. I, so if he wants to build one soon the Takom kit is the best bet

Just asking since it is the Mark 1's 100th anniversary. Meng if they made one would be the best.The Mark V they did was great.
