Dave Roof Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Well, now that it's been mentioned I can speak! I've been working with Gustav Jung (the kit's designer) on this for a while now, with what little information I can provide. Grateful to a few Marines that assisted behind the scenes with a few photos and information as well. Yes, I've already scaled up my 1/48 Yankee sheet for it!

HeavyArty Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) What company is it coming from? The announcement is just in time too as I was staring to collect the necessary kits/parts to bash it together from a UH-1N and AH-1Z.

Newtonk Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Wow, quite a different bird to a B, C, D Huey of Vietnam fame... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Newtonk Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Listed elsewhere as coming soon from Academy, which is good news for 2023. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was hoping it was from them as well since their Z is awesome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
