Some love to this in 1/48 PLEASE!!!!!!:

Thanks... There picture over AMK model. Looks spot on even though AMK model actually has an angle. It would actually fit even better if the model was pictured better:

You WIN!

LOL you guys... some of you guys become giddy to have another "topic to discuss" :) all fine.. Bring me an F-14 side view image and I will show you AMK F-14, Tamiya F-14 and "real F-14" will look all very similar within 1mm of each. That comparison means only Tamiya used that very drawing as reference. I know even drawings from grumman itself sometimes do not match to each other. Seriously, 300 will be easy 😄 I think we are looking at 500.

Nope. People just have ulterior motives: bury a brand. Even thought we are looking at the best F-14 model. No one talks about good things but a 1micron reflection is turning into an opportunity to smear the kit. Even though there is no error and the kit has 2 *more* canopies. LOL>>!>!>!>!> If you want to discuss this model how about the 10 other very good things you may talk about?? Like multiple canopy options. A frame+glass approach as an option which is a first, I believe, and looks extremely good. How about fully extended wing option? How about crazy details in cockpit and landing gears? Single piece missile galore? Decal options? Single piece front fusalage? There is 100% place for accuracy discussion but sorry this thread is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay beyond that.

? Prices are here mate. We checked the online store you referenced. AMK is 50% cheaper. It is the cheaper model for wast majority of the world.

Frame is bigger? You mean general dimensions? What did you mean by "frame"? Just to be sure, you mean this one, right?

What a model. Exceptional. wow.!!

Easy.

???? Hobbyeasy prices for AMK F-14 is = *428* HKD , Tamiya F-14A = *649* HKD. Plus shipping for both.

Of course you know more but from the past releases of GWH, it generally took max 1 year for GWH to come up with the plastic after the announcement.

Problem is the attitude. There is a crusade against AMK. I dont like it. No one cares this much for other releases from other companies. The "issue" is really not significant and burying all the PLUSES of the AMK kit.

No way. That is not accurate, in my opinion, Where do you live? Tamiya is only cheaper in Japan vs AMK. That is.

Cross post from another forum: 🙂 A little bit history here: SMKs were built following the Algerian order back in 2006 but it was cancelled in 2008 because Russians tried to sell planes which were built back in cold war days They were just upgraded to Mig-29SMT version. These aircraft then were brought by Russia and become part of RuAF. So these planes have been painted three times in last 10 year. 1) Algerian colors: 2) 1st Russian colors: Green tones. 3) Current Russian colors: More gray tones. So, I do not have AKAN colors but you be the judge they may have picked one of these color sets.... Enjoy!!
