I remove the seam with fine Sandpaper, I use Tamiya Polishing compound to polish the canopy(this takes a while) and then dip it in Future for maximum clarity. Otherwise, I normally just dip the thing in future(it works a treat). If you put the dipped canopy on a piece of tissue paper to dry, it takes away the excess future. And White Wolf, Future is avaliable in Singapore. Its called Johnsons Klear. Aaron

If you're looking around for brick and Mortar hobby stores, you could try UML(the parent company of Dragon) for Dragon, with there being stores at 579 Nathan Road, Mongkok, 5 Pennington street, and somewhere on Waterloo Road. Check out their website :o http://www.universal-models.com/. They have a fairly comprehensive stock of Japanese and Italeri and stuff like that, however you wont find Trumpeter, or much Revell. Prices are ok, and there is a 10% tourist discount if you show your boarding pass or other proof youre a tourist :). For Trumpeter, there is a shop somewhere on Waterloo road betwe

Down here in Singapore and Hong Kong, it has been out for almost a month already, and all of the shops have a supply of them.

Normally, with Hasegawa purple box kits, all of the engine options are included, as they are for people who are going to use aftermarket decals. I looked it up, and the purple box 767 kit should contain both engine options. HTH Aaron

Im not 100% sure if they are new issues, but Airfix has issued a 737-200 and a 727 in the past. So I think they will be reissues. HTH Aaron

I havent seen the Hobby Boss F-16, but it is a easy kit, unlike the A-7 which is a normal kit. It is much simpler and less detailed than the A-7. HTH Aaron
