errrm...i found one online (not ebay) within 5 minutes of reading your original post.. RF-4C that is.. not the other two

Not to sound rude or judge-y... but $39.99US plus shipping is a premium price? Isn't that pretty cheap for something that you consider a grail kit?

yep, shrink wrapping is only done by the distributors.. all original kits from the asian manufacturers come with only the inner bags sealed. also, i find that if you choose the cheapest shipping (or shipping in general from China and most HK places), the packages will come looking like they've been sat on/dropkicked. having ordered extensively from Japan (using EMS), the packages always arrive looking like they have been hand delivered by the company.

have you tried the resin nozzles from eduards limited edition fighting/striking eagles kits? they come with PE actuators and the detail looks quite superb.

for the second sheet of set 1, are the white decals printed on a clear sheet? or is it just a white decal sheet that's coloured blue and you just cut out the white parts?

that was my reaction when i first spotted the post.. sio posting on the competitions page (he didn't come out and say it, but mentioned something along the lines of wait for another manufacterers version and the other person asked if it was a hint, and he replied yes). i should have screencapped it or linked it right then and there, but i was doing something else at the time and came to check ARC forums to confirm. when i didn't see any news of it, i went back to find it and couldn't. would make sense that it's missing now as they probably deleted it. or someone else wi

yep, it popped up on my FB feed but i can't seem to find it now.. it was in one of the posts with the picture of the new KH Su-17/22.. if i can find it again, i'll do a screen cap or link it. was hoping one of you saw it as well and could confirm
-
I could have sworn I just saw Sio reply to someone in a post on KH's facebook page hinting that AMK will be doing a Su-17/22 as well?

it's like predicting the weather, eh? weather person says it's gonna be cloudy with a chance of rain.. but it turns out to be sunny. you can sit there holding an umbrella and cursing the weather guy.. or you can grab a pair of sunglasses and enjoy the sun!

no. i'll do whatever i want with my copy. can't stop meeeee!!! in fact, i'm gonna go make a million colour photocopies right now and wallpaper my room with it. yasssssssss.

why? i buy all the original books and i like to keep mine in mint condition.. if i'm gonna use it for reference, i don't want to flatten it out and have a clumsy book laying around. i would prefer to have it on an ipad or up on a big screen so i can swipe or manipulate it to zoom etc.

i get all my kits straight from japan... i dont buy any US imported stuff
-
yeah, i figure it's easier to ship from Japan straight to me instead of Japan to the USA then to Canada..

I did.. but I ordered direct from Japan and I chose EMS shipping as I always do when purchasing from there. Shipping came out to 2900yen which is about $37cad.
