foxmulder_ms Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 F-16 is just ok looking. But, I really like F-2 with larger dimensions and that sea blue camouflage a lot. anyhow.. did they release any plastic pictures of the Su-27 yet? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tapchan Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Unfortunately no. Despite my deepest hopes this seem to be going out in late spring. At least. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

True, I was even considering building F-2B, it looks a bit better. The only F-16 Icould accept on my shelf is greek Zeus! F-16 is not a sports car among jets - SR-71 was. F-16 is like a Passat B5 for european automotive. Don't you think one of these camos would be cool? :) Edited February 21, 2020 by Tapchan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Walker Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 The 27UB (and any other Flanker variants made by GWH) will be one sale Kittyhawk will not get from me!! There was no contest between the 2 brands with the Su-35. I don't doubt the rest of the Flanker kits will be the same! Keep it up GWH!! Fantastic kits! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tapchan Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 And so we passed already half of April. Are there any news regarding the kit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Specter1075 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Despite the global pandemic, Great Wall Hobby was labeled an essential service, and though it has cost many lives, many workers with their last gasp proclaimed "must... release... Flanker..." as they all diligently worked toward their spring-time release date. Or, everything is shut down and I wouldn't expect any news for a while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tapchan Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I don't know, I am not among chosen ones, I work normally like whole year before and wouldn't call aircos essential service. Have seen other modellingcompanies which stated that either they hang the business temporary or work just as normal, haven't seen GWH stating anything. There are persons close to GWH, maybe they have some info to pass. Stop spreading panic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

foxmulder_ms Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 It is indeed essential from my perspective. Without my models, my mental health would have taken a serious hit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
