Great Wall Hobby G.W.H L4827 1/48 Su-27UB “Flanker C” Heavy Fighter


Recommended Posts

I have never had luck using eBay with Chinese sellers. Most of them are scams.

 

I have however have had look using Taobao (淘宝). It’s literally one of the biggest online marketplaces in existence and the prices tend to be much better. The thing that kills it is the shipping, which is usually about 18 USD. Still though for this kit, you’d have to pay a total of $75 which is decent.

 

If any of you all wanna try Taobao and need a translator/guide, send me a message.

Mike Benolkin at Hobbyzone USA is carrying the Quinta Studio line. I suspect they will be big sellers for him. As a side note, I already have on hand the cockpit for the Mig-31BM (AMK) that I ordered via the 48ers.com. They do appear spectacular (almost like cheating in some respects) as long as you can get a perfect color match for the rest of the cockpit.

OH, BRAVO!  They seem to have gotten the color right... or at the very least, doesn't look grainy like the Eduard PE cockpits.  Looks fantastic to me.  Cant wait to try these out! 

 

...except for the belts... they look good, but I think I'll still go PE there.

The single - seater version already will released soon after UB, said Gabor.

Well this is not exactly right. 

All I said is that the Su-27 single seat will follow the UB two seater.

NO TIME for this second release was EVER indicated!!! 

 

It is very simple I have no idea when it will be released!!!    : )

 

All I know it is made and images of it were shown with the first test sprue shoots if I remember rigth many months ago. Or it could be only the production tool, not sure now but it was never a secret that it will follow the two seater!

 

Best regards

My Quinta Su-27UB set arrived today- this is the first time I’ve had a chance to see any Quinta set up close.  The pictures don’t really do it justice, but these are incredible!
