Need a 1/72 A-1E kit


Recommended Posts

I need a 1/72 Monogram A-1E kit (or its Revell boxing) to check the fit of a 1/72 A-1E sheet that I scaled down from my two 1/48 sheets. Can anyone please lend me a kit? You will have the kit back in a couple of weeks, and get a copy of the decal sheet when it is ready for sale.

Didn't Special Hobby or MPM or Sword ( I forget which) announce they were going to do a 1/72 A-1E and other 2-seater variants? You may want to hold back the fitting of the decals for the Monogram kit.

If you still want it though, I can send you mine ( Mono boxing) but it might take about 10-12 days for it to get to you from Asia. Let me know and I'll post it to you tomorrow.

Yes, but they have a habit of announcing kits several years in advance. Meanwhile I have good, proven artwork sitting on a hard drive not generating revenue. There is only one or two shape-specific elements on this sheet and I think they will work fine on a correctly-dimensioned future kit. Thanks for the offer! I think I will keep looking for a kit nearby, though.

No worries :thumbsup:

Too bad about SH/MPM/Sword's announcements. I've been on a Skyraider kick lately and was looking forward to a new kit. I didn't realise these 3 companies were as bad as Trumpeter when it comes to announcements of upcoming kits...
