  1. With Hasegawa about to re-pop the Lear kit, is anyone out there willing to 3D print the correct engines or at least the reversers 🙂 Still won't solve the window issue, but it would be a step closer... Still want to use Caracal's awesome decals
  2. My lasted completion: Blue Angel #7 Kit used was the Meng F/A-18F Blue Angel modifications included Stop Watch, inverted oil and smoke switch in the front. In the rear I used the Hasegawa parts for a pre-acs aircraft. I also added a Go-Pro type camera in the rear. The Blue Angel and Thunderbird helmets are from Squadron, with Fightertown and Tamiya decals respectively. The smoke generator was added to the exhaust. Furball Decals were used and worked great. Just check your references, there are some small discrepancies between the instruction sheets and real-life aircraft. All
  3. Looking for the following pilot figures in 1/48 Any WWII Japanese seated pilots 1/48 Thunderbird F-16 pilots with the helmet decals prefer the Tamiya ones, but also Hasegawa has them. Need 2 Thanks, Brent
  4. Does anyone know of a new 3D-printed NF-104 conversion out there? It seems like with all that is being done, maybe someone would do one, especially with the newer Kinetic kits out.
  5. If you were a mod on a group build, you got it, that’s how I did
  6. I get to see them every time I have to go to Kinston for work
  7. Did anyone go? I decided not to. Heard traffic was a mess..
  8. Not sure if requested already but how about some USCG Herks
  9. “Finishing our kit will set you free, but first it will make you miserable.” - Kitty Hawk Models
  10. We choose to build Kitty Hawk kit in less than a decade and even the kit decals not because they are easy, but because they are hard. Because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we're willing to accept. One we are unwilling to postpone, until Tamiya releases the same kit
  11. It was the Tamiya of Times, it was the Kitty Hawk of times...
  12. So my understanding of the kit is that you can build block 30/40/50, but can you do a Block 52? I read that Block 50/52 are the same, just the engines are different, but both sets of parts are in the kit. I want to do Thunderbird #7/8 ?
  13. I'm sure someone will comment on the cost of kits...
  14. My guess was it wasn't a huge seller and they were restocked finally after COVID.
  15. I believe that Flying Leathernecks bought Steel Beach's vinyl line and will be releasing them in the near future.
  16. Shoot me a PM with part numbers, and I'll see if they are going to be any I use
  17. Now I am looking for another hard-to-find sheet, Caracal C-54 Part 1, I am looking for the Blue Angels Markings
