LF/WTB 1/144 Cobra Company PB4Y Privateer


Recommended Posts

So I missed out on this kit when it was originally available from Cobra Company.   I tried to order just as they had liquidated their stock and were no longer producing.   So just checking to see if anyone has this kit in their stash that they no longer plan to build.

If no one has one then Lonestar, who acquired all of Cobra's masters, sold the 144th stuff to blackbird models in the UK.  This was posted on Lonestar's Facebook page back in December:

We should have the Privateer kit out for Telford. Am mixing various scale releases.

 

Just had a delay on a few things with an ongoing health matter, but getting there

Great news.   Will this be available via mail order for those of us on the other side of the pond?   Don

Yes, once it's all done, casting by CMR, new decals etc it'll be on the website.

Excellent news sir.   I'll be down for at least one when they become available.
