Martinnfb Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Eduard was rendered obsolete by arrival of the Hasegawa kit. This looks very promising. I Like the wing profile and the fuselage proportions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANicoll Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 I really liked the Eduard kit so if the Hase kit is better then I need to get one! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belugawhaleman Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Andy has announced that the new Gecko Models Universal Carrier is coming soon. Looks Cool. And I will get one. Anyway here's Andy's video. Also a "optional" engine kit for it. Should be included in my view, but........ 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 The Carrier looks great. I think I'm with Paul and will need to get one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed interesting and an ideal example for 1/16. I have the 1/35 Riich kit in my stash and will pass, but I guess the Riich kit is challenging with lots of tiny details and zillions of parts. Cheers Rob 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomber_County Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Great news for 1/16 fans, I’ll pass as the scale just doesn’t pull my levers also in that scale you need more real estate to display……… 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Rob Riich sell the running gear and tracks as a separate upgrade kit for the Tamiya kit. I have it and it's definitely lots of small parts. In 1/16, it'll be closer to a typical 1/35 armour kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone had experiences of AMK? AMK kits are generally very good, and this one is no exception. It is, however, not without some shape issues, and to be fair, would have been considered a new standard, had not the Tamiya kit been released at the same time. Like with the Zoukei-mura 1/32 Mustang, the Tamiya kit has completely eclipsed the competition. The AMK MiG 31 is said to be the refernce for this airframe, in this scale.

I still have a few more in 1/32 to get through but any new jets are 1/48. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HubertB Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 It really depends on the jets … I’d say early jets, up the late 60s, are still manageable in 1/32. After that, they become really hefty for most. This said, I still regret selling off my F-105 D to Fran, some days, and I’d jump on a 1/32 B-58 in a (split) heartbeat Hubert 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CANicoll Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I think a large-scale B-58 would be very interesting (and break the bank...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as it isn't as much as a used car anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
