From France. Sporadic production.

Heller has also released a line of "1/72 Scale" kits which are actually re-boxings of 1/76th Airfix kits. I believe that the following kits are the only true 1/72nd kits that Heller has released.

80199/79899 AMX-30 Mediocre kit. The overall shape and dimensions are accurate, but detail is soft and archaic. No tracks are included. Well, there are two pieces of plastic that are supposed to be tracks, but they're not useable. Preview  
Ludovic Bertrand passed me this information: Heller released another series of 1/72nd scale kits under the label of Bobkit in the mid-80's. From what I understand, these kits were accurate in scale, but undetailed. They were aimed primarily at the younger market.
