seiran01 Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 It’s indeed an awesome one, but a heads up that this is not the same aircraft as the Piper PA-48 Enforcer which seems would be the more popular choice with the wraparound euro/lizard camo. No kit or conversion for that one yet… fingers crossed! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlrwestSiR Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 With Andrei's penchant for conversions, hopefully he'll consider an F2G Super Corsair. It would fit in nicely with the Cavalier Mustang and the Enforcer. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Fisher had been planning on a correction when disaster hit. I’ve got two kits in the stash. One of them was actually my first NIB large scale kit I ever bought. The first few were all second hand eBay purchases. I still have not broke the seal on the box. I have the 2 seater A-10. I really want to build it in Border Patrol colors. 😝🤪😇 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artful69 Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Infinity Val release ... details below ... From a personal point of view ... I'll grab the slightly overpriced kit and grab any accessories I deem necessary, elsewhere. Meaning maybe Master barrels and Yahu instruments ... Look, I understand that by the nature of the company (small & short run type injection moulded), ANY product is going to come out expensive in comparison to say, Revell. That is ... If they want to make any return on their product at all. It's the nature of the market that they've entered. Which means a very particular sort of product selection - because price will isolate you otherwise. You need something that a lot of people have wanted for a while, but none of the majors have taken a punt on - and done accurately (at least externally) ... Very difficult to do! For example ... what if they had selected a Spitfire Mk.Ia? ... or an A6M2b Zero? ... or a Bf.109G (any variant, now that ZM is committed) ... You cannot charge the same or even a similar amount as the others, because product comparison at that level will kill you. I don't think anyone will disagree that Kotare, Tamiya or ZM will produce a MUCH better (accurate) and detailed product in direct comparison ... and if you're not so accuracy conscious, Revell etc are cheaper. On the other hand, with this type of selection ... They are the only Val in town (in big scale) ... And most people who have an interest in that particular subject style, will be ok forking out the additional cash to grab one ... Infinity will be thanking their lucky stars that Border's Kate is only in 35th though! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HubertB Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 I see some people, somewhere else, are already complaining about the price, and the AM set prices. Frankly, this is more expensive than a Revell kit, yes, but not that much compared to other releases by other brands. As for AM, as with any other kit, you can choose to add them or to dispense with them ... But a Tamiya Spitfire with just a Quinta set for the cockpit will cost nearly the same, with admittedly better fit (well, resumably) and design ... In the AM sets, you can split them in 3 categories : very desirable, somewhat useful and nice-to-have ... Of course, anyone's choice will vary ...
