Memory isn't clear whether had built Italaerei Kit No.106 though for sure Italeri Kit No.1106 for three of the Ca.313 & Ca.314 builds shown below. Scalemates by the way lists Revell/Italeri Ca.313/324 Kit No.H-2001, issued 1974 I'd not seen it up for sale on eBay whilst buying models well over a decade ago.

The 2018 "resin bash" of LF Models Caproni-Vizzola F.6Z Kit No.7281 & Reggiane Re.2005 Kit No.7242 to produce the Reggiane Re.2004 was amongst my best model builds well as an easy conversion effort. The early 1990s AVRO Lancaster B.II conversion with aftermarket white metal & vacuform engine & cowling parts & Airfix B.I donor kit was the only other, bear of a build it with 94 other models given away to an in-law's then young son in 1997. I'd bought the Airfix B.II kit when it came out in 2013 intending to build it but gave it away along with all my other unbuilt models to Vikings Hobbies Sacramento, CA in 2015.

Purchased off eBay c.2007 this heavy for its size resin, white metal landing gear & vacuformed canopy parts model either is the 1970s VAMI Models or 1992 Pegasus Kit No.2014 Reggiane Re.2005 molded in France & marketed by CMK Czech Republic. Scalemates doesn't list it as a CMK release though remember their logo printed on the assembly instructions sheet. Prior to seeing them listred on Scalements I'd not known about the VAMI, Modelland, Resin72, Airmodel, S-Model, 12-Squared & Dujin 1/72nd scale Re.2005 model kits of various media none of which I'd seen for sale whilst looking for Sagittario kits near decade & half ago.

The Pavla Reggiane Re.2005 kits were the best engineered & tooled ones was able to obtain via the Internet (i.e. eBay) before the RS Models offerings starting in 2011 none of which I'd purchased though still for sale via their website.

Unaware of the late 1990s RS Models Kit No.72138 & 2011 retooled Kit No.92086 in 2013 I'd purchased the SEM Models Kit No.72004 Re.2006 not knowing whether the RS Models releases were as good or not. Its possible the SEM Models kit could be the Old Wings Models all resin with vacuform canopy parts one issued earler this century or late the last despite Scalemates listing the SEM kit as new tooled in 2013:
