Why are there so few updates to the site? Updates were usually very frequent but no more. Steve

The December issue finally came in an B&N. Sealed in a paper cover and with a calendar. I am thinking of buying a subscription. Do they usually come in the mail sealed or just a address sticker? Steve

My local Barnes and Noble has not had the last two issues. Any one heard of any problem? Steve

Don't bother with this turd. It's never available. Always back ordered. Brigade does not respond. Countless time on notification list. They must make 1 or 2 at a time and call it quits. Steve

I have a 1/18 F-86 that is missing parts. Both stabs and elevators. Right aileron, Left gun door cover and landing gear doors. Any idea where I could get parts to restore it? Steve

Does Kitty Hawk the FJ-3 80156 kit have a different nose than the FJ-2 80155 kit? Steve

At one point they they mounted an Aim-7 Sparrow on that pylon. Steve

Do any one of you guys know who actually has the Dragon 1/72 Saturn V in stock? Thank You, Steve

Sorry. I thought the F4H-1. Steve

Did it say in stock when you ordered? It shows back order now steve

Well that's not good news

Did this conversion ever get released? I am on the list to receive an email when released by hanants but nothing yet.

I am looking for just the box for the Aurora Regulus II. Kit #132. Please let me know if you have one to sell. Thank You Steve

Thank you guys for all your comments. Going to cancel order with CC company. Steve

That's terrific news.

Back on December 1 I ordered a Dragon 1/72 Saturn V. Said it would ship by late January. Now it says late February. The problem is they don't return emails. Also I have friends that have got their Saturn V when purchased from other companies. Any feedback on this company? Steve

I just bought an Aurora box only that was in great shape on Ebay . I had an Aurora AH-56 Cheyenne that was in need of a box. Value just went up. Only problem is Atlantis just re-issued the kit so value went back down. Oh well. About the boxes with things that are wrong. Nope. No increased value. Actually less. Steve J

No I have not. And I'm thinking that the strips are real also. I did a reflectance test and it would not look like that unless the strips are real. The other yellow strips have a white border unlike other aircraft I have seen. This was a special celebration event so painted different than other aircraft. Steve

This aircraft was with the 80th FBS. I have found no other 80th F-80's with any yellow strips on the horizontal. steve

Thank you for information steve

Thanks Vince. I'm going to do this then. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:A-4B_Skyhawk_with_AQM-37_target_drones_in_flight_1965.jpeg

Does anyone make a 1/48 Beechcraft AQM-37 Jayhawk air-launched supersonic target drone? Steve

And here is for the A-4B https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10025398 Steve

All the other sprues are the same, including the clear parts.Different parts are blanked out in each kit that you do not use. Steve

The only difference between the Hasegawa 1/48 A-4B(A4D-2) and the A-4C is Sprue "K" in the A-4B issue and Sprue "L" in the A-4C. Both sprues are the different noses. I thought ahead and bought 5 A-4Bs and 4 A-4Cs when they first were issued. I also ordered directly for Hasegawa 5 of the sprue "K" A-4B noses for cheap. You probably can still order just the nose sprues for kit #09426 A-4B. steve
