From hobby shop to kit maker
Peter Vetri and Rick DelFavero ran the online hobby shop Megahobby.com. Their plan from around 2000 was to go beyond retail and make kits themselves, and in 2009 they founded Atlantis Models. The company lists its address as 435 Brook Avenue in Deer Park, on Long Island.
Steel molds from the 1950s
In 2018 Atlantis bought a large set of historic molds from Revell and Monogram along with Aurora-related tooling. The dies had been stored in Illinois and dated back to the 1950s. They were moved to Deer Park together with original box art and blueprints, which is why many Atlantis kits carry vintage artwork. The range includes the 1/120 B-29 Superfortress, the 1/96 Boeing 727, the 1/77 F-89D Scorpion, the 1/25 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham and the 1/500 USS North Carolina.
What the made-in-USA claim covers
Atlantis describes its kits as made and packaged in the USA, and its About page says it has kept "production rooted in the USA." That covers Atlantis-branded kits. The Atlantis web store also resells other makers, such as Tamiya and Testors, and those are outside the claim.
