HeavyArty Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 The 2018 Academy catalog shows a 1/35 AH-1Z coming sometime this year. Does anyone have more info on it? I hope it is soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phantomdriver Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 only if it's a complete retool + extra sprues.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Still think a G would sell much better. Regardless, any 35th scale helo is a good thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rotorman Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 That could very well be my next build Quote Link to post Share on other sites

While many AH-1W's were converted to Zulu's, there is still a big enough difference between the two airframes that Academy simply updating their existing AH-1W kit would be pointless.

Tank Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Well that and IIRC they don't do the NTS upgrade correctly so, there would still be some work to do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
