Just recieved this today. Mint in box Burger King kit. These are the exact same as Tyco Contemporary series. When these came out in 1984 by AHM-I ordered one of each. The series included Pizza Hut and 7-UP bottling plant. These are also the same as Tyco contemporary series. When Tyco came out with the same-i bought all of them also thinking they were different-There not. Just different name on kit box. However-Tyco added Baskin Robbins kit to the contemporary line that AHM did not offer. Just as the Tyco kits-AHM kits also included a light. See pics below. If you have more info to add-feel free to post.

Hey Brian , since nobody else is going to reply to this FANTASTIC kit I will do the honors! Thanks for posting some good photos of the box. I always enjoyed that series of building kits because those are some of the more modern kits available on todays market that are fairly easy to build and the results are pleasing. I am a big fan of the Pizza Hut kit as well and would like to build one someday for my layout because with a few simple touch ups it can be made into a great looking food franchise..Was this something you got from eBay Brian, or a train show find? And do you plan on building it it or did you just pick it up for your collection? I noticed it appears to be in its shrink wrap.
