Geoff M Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I thought I read here that it was a typo of some sort and it is really the 1:72 reissued. Looks like we really are getting a new tool 1:48 SR-71. Very cool! https://www.scalemates.com/kits/revell-tbd-sr-71-blackbird--1265498 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 The typo was for a 1/48 Hasegawa kit that is evidently just their old 1/72 kit with new decals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mstor Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Geoff, habu2 was merely clarifying which kit the typo was referring to. It was not referring to the Revell kit but to a reissue of the 1/72 Hasegawa kit. Revell is reportedly releasing a 1/48 new tool SR-71. Jeffery of Hypersonic models is also working on the release of a 1/48 SR-71. Looks like Revell will beat him to it, but I would bet that Hypersonic's kit will end up being the more accurate. Jeffery's reputation for attention to detail is well known. In the end, it looks like we will end up with two new tool 1/48 SR-71s. Sounds like a good thing to me.
