    I found another review on the HyperScale web site. From their description it sounds like they definitely did some of the fixes required but the weapons are still a mess. That being said, would the Eduard exterior photo etched parts still work in the corrected engine intakes? If they made them wider then they won't but if they just shortened them to correct the shape then the parts will still work. Anyone out there know the answer? :P Mark

    "For those of you who remember some of the glitches in the Trumpeter Su-27 kit design will also remember the beautiful Zactoman conversions to bring the Trumpeter kit up to specification. Showing their own commitment to the subject, Trumpeter has announced their own correction set which appears to provide similar corrections as the Zactoman conversions, but in styrene. If you compare the photos from the correction preview with the sprues in this release, it looks like Trumpeter has already corrected this kit." This is from Cybermodeller's review of the UB kit. I don't think they will have

    I compared all of the seats I could find for the UB and when I compared them to the images I could find of the real K36DM seat I thought that the Aires 32 2023 was the closest with the best details (add on belts vs molded). North American Hobby had them at a relatively fair price and at least their shipping wasn't horrendous! I think the next upgrade with be the Eduard exterior set. Should be a very fun build! Mark

    I just got a response back from 1 supplier of this item. The "seats" are individual and at least this supplier (MegaHobby) has fixed their description.

    I just "ordered" mine from the supplier in BC and have been researching detailing kits for this model. One item I found was the Quickboost seats for the SU-27UB under their part number QB 32 043. Does anyone know if this comes with 1 or 2 seats? The description says "seats" which would normally imply 2 but the pictures only ever show 1. The other option is the Eduard kit to dress up the Trumpeter seats that come with the kit. Does anyone have a recommendation? Its really hard from the pictures I have been able to find if the kit seats are okay or also need a lot of fixes. Also given tha

    For anyone still following this thread, the Su-27B kit is now available for $80USD from a supplier in British Columbia on Ebay. Goes by the name of modelmaam. Sweet looking kit and at that price makes the aftermarket costs to make this kit properly a little more palatable. After reading the number of posts, its no wonder that Zactoman's efforts are so appreciated. Keep up the great work!
