thorve Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Count me in for one - have one Academy Hustler waiting for decent markings Bought the 48th scale sheet when it came out and if this is only half as good it'll be the bee's knees. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D. Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Just saw Wolfpack is releasing the academy/Hobbycraft kit in their box. Any chance we’ll see this sheet in the near future? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted October 27, 2021 Author Share Posted October 27, 2021 Uh, yeah. It's about time, isn't it - I will work on getting it ready for the printers, most likely for a Jan-Feb release. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 When Wolfpack reboxed the Academy T-50 it nearly tripled in price. 😳 They did add a fair amount of resin bits though… Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paul Boyer Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Yes. Wolfpack is a Korean outfit that has reboxed several Academy (some previous Hobbycraft) kits with extras and new decals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 The decals for this Wolfpack kit are pretty unremarkable. Kursad's 1/72 sheet scaled down to in 1/144 would go a long way to dress this and all the older Academy kits up. Photo borrowed from Woldpack's Facebook page.

Paul Boyer Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Well, one thing that IS remarkable about the Wolfpack decal is that it is printed by Cartograf, who also prints many of Kursad's sheets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I did see that. Cartograf also prints the decals that come in the 1/144 Academy B-47/RB-47. They really nicely done. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconxlvi Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 I just pre-ordered the Wolfpack reboxing on HLJ. Count me in as someone in the market for B-58 decals! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Upon closer scrutiny, the WOLFPACK boxart shows the 509th BW badge on the starboard side nose, which is incorrect, as the 509th never flew the B-58, but transitioned to the B-52D from the B-47E, before moving on to the FB-111A in 1971.

Drifterdon Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I just checked and the decals show markings for the 305th and the 43rd which are what I think you're seeing on the boxart Dutch. Both of these units were B-58 Bomb Wings. 1/144 B-58A Hustler (Premium EditionKit) Wolfpack WP14001 8806345698474 | eBay Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Drifterdon Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 I included this link to let others look at the decals provided in the kit. I paid no attention to the actual price of kit or shipping. Just for reference to the decals. I’m sure there are cheaper examples on the bay. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Charlie D. Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 How time flies! Fingers crossed we’ll see this one! It was first announced about 5 years ago. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted October 9, 2022 Author Share Posted October 9, 2022 OK, you convinced me that it's time to bring this to the front burner - with only some work this could be a December release. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
