Which is a better build? Frog/Revell or Matchbox He 115

The latest Italeri re-pop of the CANT Z.506 has had the moulds updated to engraved detail and includes a PE fret.  So not just a straight re-pop of the 1986 Supermodel mould.

Agreed. That was my bad and, I have updated my original post. Thanks for reminding me.

There are not so much interesting websites about scale modelling in German ...

I clicked on that and Google offered to translate it for me. 

It's a really good review too, and tells a lot about the history of the kit, which is actually an ex-FROG moulding. Bizarrely it seems that at one stage Revell owned not only the ex-FROG He-115 moulds, but the Matchbox ones as WELL!   

They were never both in the range at the same time, but that's a really weird situation for them.

I wasn't aware until now that the FROG kit features the rearward-firing machine guns in the engine nacelles!

AFAIK Revell still own both tools and the Matchbox has appeared in a blue Revell box. Of course, sellers on eBay want nigh on 30 notes for said kits.  Naturally, I think it more likely that they may enjoy carnal relations with their mothers, all the while my heart is bleeding purple fairy urine for them.
