PNW_Modeler Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 That's been on the calendar for some time. Revell has been doing a nice job of releasing some of the older Monogram molds lately Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jay Chladek Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 It is nice to see the Monogram F-5E again (could the F-20 be far behind?). It may have been a raised panel line kit, but it was a pretty good kit for its day with decent detailing (and some serious gunpods for the spares box, such as for Phantom centerline gunpod conversions). The one item that intrigued me though, even though it isn't a jet is the 1/48 Bf-109F-4. It is apparently a rebox of the ICM kit. NICE!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Revell recently reboxed a number of Zvezda's issues. Still great (probably event better)... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hightower Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 No, it's the ICM-Kit. See here (Inbox-Review in german): IPMS Germany - Review in german Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Berkut Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Are you sure it is not a Zvezda kit? Revell recently reboxed a number of Zvezda's issues. Still great (probably event better)... Zvezda has only F-2 out so far. F-4 is due to release early next year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cloggy Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Browsing the aircraft pages on the Revell site, I found the C160 Transall ELOKA / NG / Afghanistan (also not a jet - sorry) described as "The most-produced German bomber of WWII." I think they got carried away with their new He111! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Remember those old adages...seek and ye shall find, ask and ye shall receive.......well we've been asking for F-5's now they're falling out of the woodwork or sky as it may be :) .
