Els Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I had not seen that Italeri is repopping their KC-135A kit. The site doesn't say much about it but it doesn't look like there is anything new except the decals. Scroll down past the Vosper to see the tanker Tanker Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trojan Thunder Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Yes, new decals. I have been looking for the early SAC scheme on that sheet. Pity I already have 2 KC-135As. I can't justify another just for the sheet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ElectroSoldier Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Looks like a nice sheet, a welcome change, Eeyore of the 92nd with its ADC scheme is nice but old. I wonder if it will become as rare as the R repop Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spruemeister Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Going to have to cut the tail down for the Ramrod markings. And not sure they got the placement for the name correct, but I've not seen a picture of the right side either. Rick L. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fulcrum1 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I'm going to have to buy two of these.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mrvark Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Leaving aside that the kit is a nightmare to build, yet another release with no decal for the telescoping part of the refueling boom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Leaving aside that the kit is a nightmare to build, ... I was gonna ask if this was the AMT kit reboxed but you just answered my question... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ElectroSoldier Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 The sprues answer that rather quickly habu2 :) I think the kit is not very hard to build and a challenge to build well rather than a nightmare. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spruemeister Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Leaving aside that the kit is a nightmare to build, yet another release with no decal for the telescoping part of the refueling boom I would almost bet money that somebody already has that drawn.

ElectroSoldier Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I wonder if the Italeri release will signal the return of some of the old conversions for it... The engines, fin cap and maybe even some of the none hog nose RC and EC conversions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
