  1. Yes, they were released at the time when Revellogram was the only game in town. You only need to drill a slot in the kit gun to install the barrel.
  2. If anyone considered installing Master gun barrels, this can be easily done and you don't even have to drill out the guns as in the case of Monogram kit: https://www.kfs-miniatures.com/1-48-boeing-b-17-flying-fortress-machine-gun-barrels-set-master/
  3. Nope, the Mk.IIc differs a lot from their previous Mk.I kit and these are not only the changes between the particular subjects. To explain the company origins - Attack Squadron belonged to the Arma owners and dealt with resin kits and accessories. Some time ago they've resigned from resin stuff to focus on plastic kits only, and sold the masters/designs to other brands: resin kits went to SBS Model, accessories to Brengun/Hauler.
  4. Released today, here's an inbox review, seems we have a winner: https://www.kfs-miniatures.com/1-72-hurricane-mk-iic-arma-hobby/
  5. This went unnoticed here, whilst it's a decent kit of an original subject: https://www.kfs-miniatures.com/1-72-gloster-meteor-nf-mk-12-special-hobby/

  10. After the busy summer, Exito Decals brings us two news sets dedicated to the recently released 1/48 kits from Airfix and Eduard. The fifth decal set is entitled “Sweet Fourteens” and includes markings for three interesting examples of the Supermarine Spitfire FR Mk.XIVe: - Spitfire FR Mk.XIVe (TZ112), coded DN-Y of No. 416 Sqn RCAF, Uetersen, Germany, December 1945-January 1946. - Spitfire FR Mk.XIVe (TZ198), coded 2I-M of No. 443 Sqn RCAF, Uetersen, Germany, January 1946. - Spitfire FR Mk.XIVe (SM937), coded 62 of No. 151 OTU, Peshawar or Ambala, British India, 1946.
  11. The MSRP of the 1/32 kit is USD 330, I'd be surprised if only 50 bucks less is asked for the quarterscale kit.
  12. This set may be of your interest: https://exito.site/en_GB/p/EXITO-DECALS-ED48001-148-Gustavs-Over-The-Balkans-Messerschmitt-Bf109G-6/46876
  13. BTW, the 'white 12' / K4-G was actually an A-8 from 739xxx batch. Likely finished in 81/82 rather than 74/75, like her sister ships captured at AGO factory and known from colour photos.
  14. Order directly. My order arrived in a few days (to Poland) without any problems. The pods (1/72 ones) look the part, also got the big set of ejection seats and most of them are very nice.
  15. Exito Decals strikes back with two news sets available both in 1/48 and 1/72 scale. Their 3rd decal set is entitled “Sexy Spitfires” and includes markings for three aircraft: - Spitfire LF Mk.Vb (EN921), coded YO-A of No. 401 Sqn RCAF, flown by F/O Jack Sheppard, Redhill / Staplehurst / Biggin Hill, UK, July-October 1943. - Spitfire LF Mk.VIII (MT841), coded U of No. 2 Sqn RIAF, Kohat, British India, spring 1946. - Spitfire LF Mk.IXe (TA864), coded LW-L of No. 318 (Gdanski) Sqn RAF, flown by P/O Zdzisław Uchwat, Risano near Udine, Italy, May-June 1945. All aircraft feature sexy
  16. Exito Decals enters the market with two sets available both in 1/48 and 1/72 scale. The decal sheets are printed by industry leader, Cartograph of Italy, which ensures top printing quality and ease of application. These are complemented by instructions that differ from the plain market standard. What you get are essentially high quality posters with accurate and inspiring illustrations created by Janusz Swiatlon. Each subject is presented on an A4-sized sheet, with large side aircraft profiles printed on the front, and the remaining artwork, photos and all necessary information laid out on the
  17. Dear ARC forums members and visitors, Kagero Publishing is proud to announce the release of a new book on the Challenger 1 MBT. Pre-orders will be shipped after 25th February. PHOTOSNIPER No. 9 Challenger 1 Main Battle Tank Robert Griffin The Challenger 1 Main Battle Tank was Great Britain’s second purpose-designed Main Battle Tank and served as the spear point of the Royal Armoured Corps for nearly 20 years.

  18. Dear ARC forums members and visitors, Two new aircraft-related books will be published by Kagero in February 2014. The following titles will be available after 25th February: UNITS 07 JG 53 "Ace of Spades" Marek J.

  19. Hello guys, If you would like to order the publications mentioned above directly from Kagero, they are readily available. Best regards, Maciej
  20. Thanks guys! Yes, like all titles from SMI Library series, the one on the B-17 also contains decals - just as it's written in its description :) Cheers, Maciej
  21. stevehnz, I'll consider 'Black Market Babe' for one of the future editions. As you may notice, this is part 1. However, the continuation of 'Pacific Lightnings' depends on the sales of the first part. Anyway, most of the aircraft featured in it were either not done previously in decals, or done incorrectly ('Ready Maid' appeared in a decal sheet in the past, but its authors haven't seen a colour photo of this plane which is featured in our booklet; 'Spirit of 76' is included in RS Models 1/72 P-38E kit, but it's clear that the designer of the paint schemes and decals have only seen a few phot
  22. I'll be happy to see you using the CE conversion to build the 'Spirit of 76' ;) There's also another E/F/G conversion set available from Grey Matter: http://www.greymatterfigures.com/index.php?p=2&id=118 Cheers, Maciej
  23. Hello guys, It's time for the first AFV decal publication in 2014. It will be available since 17th January, but you can preorder it right now ;) miniTOPCOLORS No. 39 Captured Panzers.
