I've got Stanislav's MiG23 and MiG27 sets, and have found him one of the friendliest and easiest people to deal with amongst all the aftermarket producers I have bought from over the years. True gent. Also looking forward to see what the Ciro resin is like too. I have some MiG-23 intakes from a few years back and was very impressed with the quality. Just glad these two are providing these sets for us, and will continue to support them 🙂

Yes, with you on that one Chris, I'm very happy with the Tamiya A and D so far, and will wait to get the B when/if it is released. Looking forward to see what GWH does with their F-14. I have an AMK on pre-order, and will be interested to see what it is finally like. Great time to be a Tomcat fan!

A few years ago they released a 'Danger Zone' Limited Edition re-boxing of the Hobbyboss 1/48 F-14A, with some resin and photo-etch extras. Some nice decal options in there too. https://www.eduard.com/Eduard/Danger-Zone-1-48.html?cur=2&listtype=search&searchparam=Danger Zone

AMK F-14D kit now showing 15/1/19 release date via Hobbyeasy.com, with the weapons set down for 22/12/18 release...

without making a comment on the quality of the resin, this looks to be a far more reasonable way of getting an 1/48 NF Meteor, given the arm and leg prices the CA kit has been going for on Ebay, or at least was earlier in the year when I was looking...

Hi Ryan Can only speak for Auckland, and I don't know your transport arrangements, but here's my take: Hobbycity - Lunn Ave, East Auckland - lots of 1/72 and 1/48 Hasegawa kits at the mo, as well as Airfix/Academy/Trumpeter etc...but not that cheap, more RC-focused really, but does have a fair selection of plastic scale-modelling supplies etc..and the odd in-store specials on kits. Modelair - just off Dominion Road, Central-ish Auckland - real deal LHS scale-modelling hobby store - retail pricing [obviously], but knowledgeable friendly staff and some good in-store-only pricing

Here's the link to the relevant USAF Sig post http://www.usaf-sig.org/Forum/index.php?topic=345.msg1529#msg1529 mentioned in the HS article, HTH.

Great news...another set to add to the Caracal collection of decals :)

Good idea if possible :)

Great news, just ordered one :) Thank you for all your efforts! Aaron

Awesome, just ordered them :) Great upgrade for the kit...now just got to wait for the Barracuda resin to be released!

Cheers for the heads up Kursad, now 5 Lakenheath Eagles remaining :)

Hobbyeasy has the kit at US53 [pre-order].

They may well be. The greatest increase in size is at the intake end, and of course much more detail. They look much more 'meatier' than the kit engines.

They look very nice Jeffery. I purchased two sets of your Intruder intake/exhausts, very classy items!

Hi Jonah Here are a few pics I took of the B-52H engine set I bought from Mike West/Lone Star a month or two back. Nice stuff. Hope they give you some idea of the quality.

very nice work Darren :)

Here's the WIP http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=293721

Nice Kotey :)

A very interesting post Raymond, thanks for taking the time to post - a useful insight into a kitmaker's perspective of buying/sales patterns. Cheers, Aaron

This review has some sprue pics if this helps? http://modelingmadness.com/review/mod/us/poif15preview.htm

Agree, July release date, so hopefully not too far off.

Great to hear Stenkabg. Looking forward to buying one of these :)

Thanks, good to hear :)

Hey nice work Great to see how the Red Star cockpit finishes up. How well did the resin fit? much sanding needed? Well done, Aaron
