How is that kit Alby? :salute:

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

As long as you don't have a certain set of missing gloves and another certain missing stick... :thumbsup:

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.

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. :whistle:
