Japanese S-70/H-60's in 1/48??


Recommended Posts

Maybe this question has been ask before but the search function didn't throw up much..

 

Are there any conversions sets out there to convert the various Italeri 1/48 Blackhawk kits to the Japanese Mitsubishi built cousins??

 

Looked the Hasegawa 1/72 kits but they are alot of cash for a 80's kit with alittle PE/Resin and new decals...plus ideally I would like to build in 1/48

 

Just getting into Helos as a change of pace so don't really know whats outthere...

 

Also how on earth in 2018 do we not have a decent AH-1F/S 1/48 model other than to old Monogram kit

 

Thanks in advance.

Well as far as I know there is no full kit of the Japanese H-60 in 1/48. There are few in 1/72nd.

 

As for resin, Cobra Company issued a new Japanese nose for the H-60. The Cobra Company line was bought up by Lone Star Models when Cobra shut down. 

 

I too would like a Japanese H-60 as their schemes are really nice. I never say never anymore and I have lots of helicopter kits to do until then. 

 

As for the AH-1F, yeah what's up with that?

Tal vez esta pregunta se haya hecho antes, pero la función de búsqueda no arrojó mucho.

 

¿Hay alguna conversión para convertir los distintos kits de Italeri 1/48 Blackhawk en los primos japoneses construidos por Mitsubishi?

 

Miré los kits de Hasegawa 1/72, pero son mucho dinero en efectivo para un kit de los 80 con un poco de PE / resina y calcomanías nuevas ... además, idealmente, me gustaría construir en 1/48

 

Entrando en Helos como un cambio de ritmo, así que realmente no sé qué hay ahí fuera ...

 

Además, ¿cómo diablos en 2018 no tenemos un modelo AH-1F / S 1/48 decente que no sea el antiguo kit Monogram?

 

Gracias por adelantado.

Coming soon in 1/48 by Xtream Modelers Studio, the set is interior and exterior full detail, the page is Xtream Modelers Studio in face
