Several jet and propeller airplane models followed along with ships (classic and contemporary), jet engines, and in the late 1950s, rockets and spacecraft.<ref>{{cite web |last = Bussie |first = Alan |date = September 4, 2007 |title = A Brief History of Revell Plastic Model Kits |work = Old Model Kits |url = http://www.oldmodelkits.com/blog/plastic-model-kit-history/a-brief-history-of-revell-plastic-model-kits/ }}</ref> This included models of Redstone and other military test missiles and Vanguard, Jupiter and Atlas rockets. Other issues, like the Helios "Nuclear"-powered ship, "Moon Ship", a "Passenger Rocket", a "Space Taxi", and a not-so-incredible "Space Shuttle" were kits more in the science-fiction realm.  One site describes the one-time 1959 issue of an envisioned space station as the "Holy Grail" of Revell kits.<ref>{{cite web |work = Old Model Kits |year = 2005–2014 |title = Revell Space Station 'S' Kit |url = http://www.oldmodelkits.com/index.php?detail=4298&searchtext=space%20station }}</ref> Infantry figures and various dioramas, especially for railroad setups, were also produced.

In the later 1950s, Revell began making more automotive-related models. Beside jet engines, car engine models like the [[Chrysler Slant-6 engine|Chrysler Slant-Six]] were produced. Car models tended toward a more global selection than [[Aluminum Model Toys|AMT]] or [[Model Products Corporation|MPC]] or other American plastic model makers, with many European brands produced, including many British makes. One interesting offering came about with a collaboration with AMT making the 1955 and 1956 promotional Buick. The models were atypical for the time in that there was full chassis detail, and bodies were cast in several pieces. Revell made these specifically ready-built for showroom display.<ref>{{cite magazine |last = Doty |first = Dennis |year = 2011 |title = Frolicking on the Riviera |magazine = Collectible Automobile |volume = 28 |issue = 1 |pages = 86–89 }}</ref> Another kit related to pop culture, was the 1956 Lincoln Futura concept car – a vehicle that, with out-of-this-world bubble windows, would eventually become George Barris's Batmobile.<ref>{{cite web |last = Jefferis |first = David |year = 2010 |title = Double Bubble Dream Car from 1955 |work = Modelbouw Expert |url = https://www.modelbouwexpert.nl/double-bubble-dream-car-from-1955/ }}</ref>
