Jennings Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 (edited) you can also probably justify the purchase by considering the fact that you won't need a lick of aftermarket!! You so funny!! *As if* that could ever be the case :) PS: I need Cuban decals for it Edited December 6, 2012 by Jennings Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fuji Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 PS: I need Cuban decals for it You'll only need rudder markings and BORT numbers as most Cuban MiGs these days don't use the roundels on the wings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jennings Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 It seems Begemot is intent on doing decals for every single MiG-29 that has ever flown :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cyrus Tan Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) I just got a notification from Dragon that my kit is ready to be shipped. It should be here in a couple of days since I'm only 30 min away from their warehouse. I can't wait!! :woo:/> Edited December 12, 2012 by Cyrus Tan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nicholassagan Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I just got mine, too!!! 3-7 days...and packages from City of Industry usually take about that to Chicago... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Berkut Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I'll need an IFR Probe and decals for the new Peruvian jets once GWH does the 9-13 Fulcrum C and UB Fulcrum B. They are not really new (updated) and you would have to do more than just IFR probe. ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Petarvu Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) I wanted to order from HLJ yesterday and it went out of stock between clicking order and getting it into cart....bummer losing my patience to get a hold of one.

Cyrus Tan Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) My kit arrived today. Holy crap! I can now see what all the fuss is all about. This has got to be the best Mig-29 in any scale! The tooling and engineering is much better than the Academy kit and would easily rival Tamiya IMHO. The details are nice and sharp and the plastic quality is smooth not pebbly. I can't comment on fit since I only opened the box to examine the sprues, but I'm very pleased with this kit. It looks very accurate too compared to photo references I've seen. The only downside is it's a bit pricey for a 1/48 kit, but its well worth it if you can spare the cash. I really hope they come out with a new tool Flanker series because I have no doubt they would pull it off judging from this kit. Anyways, I highly recommend this kit if you're still undecided about getting one. Edited December 13, 2012 by Cyrus Tan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All I care is that they do a 9-13 so we get the other major production variant - anything beyond that would be welcomed, but a pure bonus in my mind! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Other variants are up to the market need and feedback, SMT is easier for the molding cost while UB need a totally new upper and lower fuselage, cockpit, etc. Other scales are not impossible of course, but it will be also up to market and the boss himself.
