USAFsparkchaser Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Looks awesome, some comments about the nose, which does look off. Sounds like Raymond is aware of and am sure it will be corrected. Other than that it looks awesome. Correct antennaes and the lumps on the side of the fuselage behind the crew entry door and some spot on other side of the fuselage. I CAN't WAIT TO GET THIS!

Sarathi S. Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Even if the nose is off, it's still far better than the Anigrand kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fulcrum1 Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I'll buy one of those! Looks great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mercury Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Very tempting...but where to put finished model... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flyboyf18 Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Now I just have to get a Leo 2A4CAN done to go on the ramp, or maybe a 2A6, which will be easier!?!?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D. Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Very cool, although too big for me, I can't wait to see a built example. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some people are kit builders, some model makers, the difference between the two gives the answer as to whether or not there is a good C-130 kit out there to be made.

All kit builders are model makers surely? We all enjoy the same hobby. Why draw an artificial distinction? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yea well based off that mentaility we also had a 1/32 FW-190 from Revell in the early 70's. i guess Hasegawa and Revell must be catering to a new niche in the modelling world. People who prefer quality to elbow grease. The international law of convenience. Feel free to stick with the raised panel, thickly glassed, zero interior detailed Italeri kit with its incorrectly sized engines. As i want to build at leadt two Herks in my lifetime oh and some other planes as well a new tool accuracte detailed 72nd Herk family would be fantastic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

strikeeagle801 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I want one. And, after seeing a few here for Exercise Mobility Guardian, an A-400 to put next to it. Aaron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nigel Bunker Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Well you can make a start on the A400M as RoG made a 1/72 kit of it. A nice kit though you may need to reinforce the undercarriage - I replaced the axles with wire to support the weight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
