Don Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Hello all, I came across this video posted Feb 9, 2019 that shows some quick glimpses of Revell's 2019 releases. Some new, some old, some reboxings. I think I'll grab most of the 1/32 aircraft, there are a couple armor subjects that look interesting, and I missed out on the B-1 a few times so I see me springing for that too. Now...where can we get these here in the USA is the question?? Enjoy and regards, Don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
southwestforests Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Beyond the difference of inline and radial engines, I wonder what airframe differences there are between the Bucker 131 here and the Bucker 133 Jungmeister. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
southwestforests Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Ah! Reissues of the old Matchbox 1/76 armor kits! Those little scenes they came with made nice pieces for wargaming scenery, and the kit figures were very nice for the era, very nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m still waiting for their 2018 releases to become available in the USA. I thought a distributor deal was supposedly “imminent” several months ago. 😟 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jonathan_Lotton Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Interesting that they're still not showcasing the new (presumably still coming) P-51D Late (D15+ tail) as a follow on to their 1/32 P-51D Early. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I love their 1/32 aircraft kits and some of their 1/35 armor is quite nice. All of them are well priced compared to the big manufacturers. Get a distributor already and get your (Revell's) kits on the market here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre711 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I never was able to find the reissued F/A-18Fs anywhere locally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hobby Lobby carried them for awhile. I don't think they reissued many of them. They were gone pretty quick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The Bu 133 is a single seat with a Siemens radial. The wings may be the same, I'm not sure but the fuselage is completely different. I wish they would do the 133...it was more or less the precursor to the Pitts. jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
