its out now anyone seen it? https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10798299

thank you so much!! exactly what I was looking for!

I agree, I have no idea what that guy said, it was just the rambling of angry people who dont like it they can't win an argument and want to cancel those who dont agree

The people who are so angry here need to rethink their lives, their attitudes destroy modeling, the attitude of stupidity is okay". screaming "boomer" etc. Its the reason kids dont model anymore, the big puss attitude, here's an example, my neighbor seemed like a nice guy, he and I were talking, he had some relative fight in Korea, he liked airplanes of that era, was trying to talk him into building, he seemed very interested, later told me his wife wouldn't let him "spend money on stuff like that", she looks like Grimace from McDonalds In her purple clothes, pasty white w/ear holes, short

^^The White Knight has arrived, kids everywhere are thanking you for protecting them from mean adults who speak truths as for the past, you can lack time for modeling when you are chasing girls and playing with cars, but lots do come back, people who lack the basic skills in life to be a male or think rationally cant model

Many of todays youth lack the problem solving abilities you need to build models. Ask them how their phone works, they dont know. Some of them dont care to drive a car, so they cant manage directions, thus they can't build a model, What am I doing? Im teaching them, modeling isnt racist! I complained about the teacher who told my kid he couldn't talk about Enola Gay or show a model because it was "racist" she also lied saying the crew all suicided or were institutionalized. Part of modeling is understanding history, recreating it in an accurate model, heck even star trek modelers work on

back to the topic at hand, now we have wonderful kits, photo etch 3d instrument panel decals, printed parts, its an amazing time, but I see young people as disinterested or even offended by history. As model builders many of us love the history of what we build and we are fascinated with the machines involved. I see young people lacking in this inquisitiveness or having teachers actively discourage it. I remember building a crappy Revell mig-25 and hanging it from my ceiling, references were some blurry pics from an aviation magazine, now I can buy a Yefim Gordon book, buy a semi accurat

ooh, burn, I feel so terrible, being a normal male who likes to build models is such a bad role model for your children, maybe I should start demanding people remove hakenkreuz, hinomarus and confederate flags from models

^^ no Im so old I cant recall, why so bitter, you have a kid who you let act like this?

doubt my grandparents say that about me, highly doubt any of the people who dont know if theyre a boy or girl could build a model airplane without feeling guilty triggered or offended

actually Im very welcoming, I go to shows, I patronize vendors, I encourage anyone I can...but I shouldn't have to pander to stupid people and realistically, what kind of younger people do you see at a show, occasionally some sullen green hair is being dragged along. Theres nobody there complaining that nobody is encouraging them

I saw this somewhere anyone know where to find it, it was resin and photo etch blades I think

^^ look at Germany, fewer model train stores and hobby stores, kids these days are idiotic, ask them to change a tire, then tell me you disagree

Is this one of the best times ever to be in the hobby? we have some accurate kits that can be built, decals photo etch 3D parts, or is the hobby dying, young people are socialist morons staring at their phones all day crying with blue hair. New kit releases seem to be slowing a bit or could be my imagination, what do others think ?
