Members Mikester Posted November 2, 2013 Members Share Posted November 2, 2013 Looks pretty nice but at $45 I don't see myself picking this up. http://store.spruebrothers.com/product_p/edu632022.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulster Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Usually see some metal frets to go along at that price. Still, looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave J Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Thats a nice looking pit in the photos... But that price... OUCH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmayhew Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Waaaay overpriced What are Eduard on? For that money it needs to be pretty much perfect Personally, I am far more interested in the white bronze landing gear for the Revell 109 Anyone notice these??? This is a far more significant release for both Eduard and us modellers: SAC are generally crap / aspire to mediocrity; GFactor are great but bloody expensive and difficult to find If Eduard's stuff is any good, it could be a massive boost I trust we will be getting a couple of these sets for our 109 experten to review?

Members Mikester Posted November 3, 2013 Author Members Share Posted November 3, 2013 One piece metal landing gear would be a huge upgrade, the kit supplied struts are awful in terms of strength! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmayhew Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 gear is already out of stock at hannants (doh) but hopefully Eduard will be churning them out! http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/ED632021 have to say that £27 plus postage for a 109 cockpit is just too much imho http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/ED632022 but each to his own...

Artful69 Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Question: Did Eduard get that vent corrected and in the right position??? Rog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulster Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Sprue Brothers has them in stock at $20.49 USD. After buying G-Factor's for my Mk. IX and F-105G that doesn't seem that out of line. Especially seeing as it also includes gear doors. http://store.spruebrothers.com/product_p/edu632021.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 Those are nice pair of legs! I didn't know that they were out yet... Hmmm, now do I order some now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mikester Posted November 3, 2013 Author Members Share Posted November 3, 2013 The gear look really nice, but...... If the main hit on Hasegawa is the price these add-ons make the Revell kit much less of a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the main hit on Hasegawa is the price these add-ons make the Revell kit much less of a bargain. But the kit legs are just that awful. After spending about 5 minutes looking at the kit legs all painted and formulating brake line approach and considering re-sanding legs for re-paint. I caved and ordered the Brassin set.

prem895 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Cockpit upgrade cost more than the model. Just put in a pilot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulster Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 I love cockpit upgrades. Sometimes I buy them before I buy the kit itself. No one ever told me this was a cheap hobby. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mikester Posted November 4, 2013 Author Members Share Posted November 4, 2013 Cockpit upgrade cost more than the model. Just put in a pilot Certainly nothing wrong with the kit supplied cockpit, except the silly molded on seat belts and the joystick. The resin sets tend be a little better detailed and have sharper molding, some people are fine shelling out the extra money, some aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
