flarpen Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 This was posted on the ARC FB site A UH-60M conversion set by Xtreme Modeler Studio. I would like to know more on this, like where it can be bought from. Google has not been my friend on this. FB Link Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chief Snake Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Made in Taiwan as UH-60M (ROCA) and distributed by Hobby Fan and AFV Club. Available at Hobby Linc Japan as kit HF090 base model Italeri UH-60. Chris M Quote Link to post Share on other sites
twong Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) Those sets look really nice. The box top photo shows the EIBF but the conversion set doesn't seem to have them included. The Hobby Fan set doesn't include the interior. It also only gives the tips for the main rotor blades. https://www.ebay.com/itm/AFV-1-48-scale-ROC-Taiwan-UH-60M-resin-kit-for-Italeri-UH-60/163613983670?hash=item26182743b6:g:6PAAAOSwyrlcl-Cq Edited June 25, 2019 by twong Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This seem to be way more complete with the updated interior and IP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chief Snake Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) The Hobby Fan and AFV, when released in 2018, were the same. Vendors are now showing that the Hobby Fan is no longer available so it seems whatever is being sold under the Hobby Fan name could be radically different than when originally released. Either that or the first release information wrongly showed a full set under both names. The boxings shown above are coming from Mexico. They could be knock offs of the AFV Club set.

mfchi Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 The set in no copy of none of the mentioned company’s , AFV just give you the new Exhaust and some antenas $39 on eBay this new set give you full interior and exterior the box art shows the Mexican Navy but can be build like any M US Army; the picture I post don’t show the complete set jus the mayor component Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chief Snake Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 All well and good but the main question remains unanswered. How do you find out where to buy the set? Chris M Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hawkwrench Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 The right side bulkhead does not have that control box??? installed on a UH-60M. The fire extinguisher is in the wrong place on the same bulkhead it appears. Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
