doupnik Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Looks like Italeri has some interesting kits coming out. I might need to pick one of these up. mason Quote Link to post Share on other sites
norbert Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Hi Friends here a picture from Nürnberg show picture comming from primeportal here does not look like a rebox of the old Alpha model Good news Norbert Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Joseph Osborn Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Just some boxart, but that's a start! What about the Huey that is just above the Kiowa art? It looks to have an M23 on it's side... On the other hand, look at the glorious plastic from the Airfix page-- there are some real, tangible Lynx parts! And it looks bee-yootiful: http://www.primeportal.net/models/thomas_voigt5/airfix/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
salvador001 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 What Huey is the one above the Kiowa? Rod. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whiskey Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Cybermodeller says its an updated Esci kit. Probably an additional sprue thrown in the kit with Delta version parts Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tank Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 What about the Huey that is just above the Kiowa art? It looks to have an M23 on it's side... Been thinking about this a lot. I think it's UH-1N they just re-released or going to re-release again with the weapons bits. If you look at the door decals it is similar to the one they have out now but it looks to be in white. http://www.italeri.com/Kit.aspx?PROD=01870 or http://www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/kits/it/kit_it_2692.shtml Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cobrahistorian Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 This is definitely good news! We've needed a good flying lawnmower in 48th scale for a while now (Floyd's gonna be at my house in about 2 hours, let's hope he doesn't see that before he gets here!) :) I'm pretty psyched about this!

strikeeagle801 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 That'll go along well with the Alpha and Delta Apache diorama I have planned. Hopefully Joseph will down-size his Kiowa sheet for us. Aaron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
grandadjohn Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Good news, now to find out if the AH-1W is a re-pop or a new mold Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Floyd S. Werner, Jr. Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Floyd -- Would Werner Wings consider doing a detail set for this kit once it comes out, maybe down the road? Let's see what it looks like first but yes I would after the decals. Floyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Well let's hope they are only adding new sprues to the ESCI kit of the 206 for the "D" and not modifying the 206 mould. I for one sure like the ESCI kit. I have heard that there are some accuracy problems with it but I can't see it. I guess we will wait and see what turns up. At lest I have several of the 206 in my stash in case they have changed the original moulds. I know Italeri has the 1/72nd kit of the OH-58D for many years and I was wondering when they would upsize it. Now with more info out there maybe the wait will be worth it. Oh and if a new aftermarket sheet gets released, I will pick that up along with Floyd's stuff. I already have his walkaround so I think I am all set. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
