Albert Moore Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 How is that kit Alby? Hi Awan, Like most older Zvezda kits, it basic detail wise (especially in the cockpit), but looks pretty decent on the exterior. It has a new forward fuselage, TADS turret, and the other assorted doo-dads for the Night Hunter version. The one big discrepancy that I've seen is the upper fuselage behind the main rotor. The Mi-28N has a completely different housing on the top than what's provided in the kit (I assume it's a carry over from the Mi-28A kit). The bottom of the tail boom and fuselage will need some add-ons as well as it is bare in the kit. Cheers, Alby Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Av8fan Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I've been saving for this since it was announced. The 1/24th Mosquito. Picked it up at the LHS. What an amazing kit! Not without some issues(No kit is) but I am VERY glad to have it. Seeing pictures is one thing but in real life this kit is something else again. My hat is off to Airfix.

PlasticWeapons Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Just got the new 1/48 Hasegawa VF-1J/A Valkyrie in the mail today from HLJ. Yeah, this one has been on the wants list for more than 25 years and I do admit, I like anime if it's about mecha stuff. I enjoyed watching the Robotech version released in the US way back in the mid-80s and later watching the full Japanese Macross version years later. The US version deleted so much stuff... I know I ordered two from HLJ but only one arrived. Does HLJ usually ship in separate boxes? Just a little worried! Hoping tomorrow the second one shows up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
