Yes…, and a laxative one ! If I may say so.

Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Madcop

Hi Tony I chose the AMK kit...I paid for it in June 2017. I knew the AMK boys would produce it when they had free times , so as to not interfere with their other productions. I am still waiting … I was warned...So, no problem for me. I won't buy the Tamiya kit, so simple as that (or so simple as the Tamiya kit is…). AMK are fellow modellers, making kits as a hobby for modellers, not looking for profit , but just looking for not loosing money, what I can easily understand. So I can still wait for months , I do not care as far as I knew what I was doing … There i

Hi Nino The same for me, but don't be afraid, this new kit is supposed to be a "shake and bake " affair ! The kind of model you can build and paint in a W.E. just by looking at it ! Just hope that times will prove me right ! Madcop

Well, I can understand that. There is still something positive. The longer you wait for it , the bigger your joice when you receive it !. Anyway, Hope it won't last too long.…. too much joy can kill also ! Madcop

Hi Nino You shouldn't have sold the bear's fur before having shot him ! It's just more than 1 year since I paid for the F-14D from AMK, and I am still waiting and confident…. I am also confident for thisSu-33, and I will have the same patience… there is so much to do in life than kits. It remains a hobby !. Madcop

Where are we going to ? ... AMK is getting better and better with each new kit, and so does Tamiya.... There is always enough place for quality product. There are just different approaches. I'll trust AMK for this one , as I did before...and I never had to regret it. Madcop

So did I . Just went on AMK Facebook page , seems that everything is running O.K. So no panic. The kit is coming , maybe sooner than the pessimists believe. As the project is still running you can't actually already have received your "perk", can you ? ( If I have the meaning of "perk" correct) You could join the Indiegogo survey as well Madcop

+1 20 more years for me !

I know how old I am looking INSIDE ! I've been exposed to plastic-epoxy and enamel paint fumes and many others for much longer than you had ! ( I won't speak about the resin powder I swallowed ....) You very young F-16 jockey ! Yes, my feet are feeling like they were 97 ...but they'll still support me till I go to the post office to get my F-14 in 2020 ! I'm leaving now cause I have to take my different medicines and a little bit of EPO. Madcop

I placed my pre-order (Indiegogo) on the 8th of June 17. I am now 97 , so that I can still wait a couple of years or more. No problem...dreaming makes you see the future and desire keeps you living ! And when the wait will be over, you'll realize that's it is just another box full of plastic bits better or worse than the other pieces of plastic you already have. So, if that doesn't kill you , you'll start dreaming again about the perfect whatever you can dream of...( e.g 1/32 N.A. P-51B for me....). So , thanks to AMK for keeping me alive !... Madcop

Looks like Yufei product has got the edge on the Cold War Studio one as it is a one piece casting, whereas on the CWS you still have to add the plastic cam. bay. Looks from the pic that Yufei's product will demand far less fitting work than CWS one and looks also sharper. I have the CWS one and all is fitting very well after a little cleaning job, anyway I may also buy a Fairey Hobby when they are back ... Nice job Yufei Madcop

Hello Berkut, Many thanks for these infos. Have we more détails about these boxes. Have we some more close up pictures of them. Do they eject the flares backwards or downwards ? When you talk about some other minor détails, (Internal or external ), are you talking eg about the wingtips of the 9-13 type ? , What else do we need to know about ? Thanks for sharing your knowledge . Madcop

Hello Berkut Pardon me for my ignorance but what do you mean with these external flare boxes. Are they wrong, misplaced, too thin or what ? I am sorry but I really do not understand the problem. ( I am talking about the "boxes" that are placed forward of both vertical tailplanes ) Do you mean they were also wrong on the 9-13 ? Thanks for the infos. Madcop

Looking at all these pictures and having a look at Zlinek plans I'll definitely wait for Zvezda's release. Looks to me that the front of the AC is a little bit cartoonish and I have a serious doubt about the engines fairings and airbrake. But I may be wrong , future will tell. Madcop.

Hi Pep PM sent for REVELL Scorpion and BB Cockpit. Madcop

Hi fellow big scale modellers I am looking for a HASEGAWA Curtiss P-40K in 1/32. Would buy or trade. Living in Belgium. Thanks. Madcop.

Fait trop beau pour travailler ! Les marins les aiment crados ! Nice work Buddy ! Madcop

Hi Laurent It's just like a guy trying to sell you his car that he knows is a POS ,but who keeps telling you that you'll love it just because of the very nice ashtray inside ! It's just miserable. Madcop :D/>

Hi Enrywar Yes, that's what I use to do also, but UpNorth is not a special tool, it's just like a Verlinden's set but with all the F-100D specific panels, acces hatches etc... I like to scribe. But when I have finished with the job, well I've to do myself some violence to go further with it , :wacko: Madcop

No problem Gary , the most important is having fun... Madcop ;)/>

Hi "There is no need to go to a museum with a plumb bob to measure the wing span of a Bf109." For sure they didn't , they were more interested in testing their new beer brand ! If this is the effect it produces, I for sure won't test it ! Or maybe they were too busy with the farm girl ? Madcop

Hi Enrywar67 You've done what I have been dreaming of since I have this kit. I missed a tool called UpNorth scribing set especially done to rescribe all the Monogram F-100 panels. Did you use it on your model ? I am desperately looking for this set. Who knows, maybe one of the member could locate one or is willing to sell it ? Very, very nice work, congratulations ! Madcop.

Hello Red Dog Quite a nice job done since our last meeting at our LHS ! YOUR refuelling pod looks definitely longer than the Heller one. (even with the prop added to the Heller) Is this pure Hollande's interpretation or you had to make it longer so as to keep the section ? By the way , your work is just great and as you can give a real dirty look to these Rafales you must be pretty happy !. Do not worry for this difference in length, I was kidding, at 10000 Ft nobody will notice it ! Madcop

Hi Gary I for sure you mean that the Eduard kit is " the nicest " BF109G kit out there till... " I agree with you , but surely not the "best" ! For the time being "Nicest and best" fits only the Spitfire Mk.IX As for Fujimi they could add a complete new nose section as well... ! You'd better wait for the Zvezda at 16-17 Euro. These people know their subjects ! Madcop ;)
