RalphSarc Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Got a surprise it the mail. Revel sent me replacement clear parts for my now completed Ju88C-6 for free!! I had ordered and offered to pay but the invoice said zero. Now I have complete Ju88A kit with an optional C canopy and complete external bomb racks. Looks like a possible future Ju88 build, lol.

Have always had a pleasant and successful experience when dealing with Revell customer service. A lot of companies could use a lesson or two from them.

rkranias Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Arrived day before we headed to Adirondacks (upstate New York to you non-colonists) for a totally unplugged vacation. One of several books I packed in my backpack. I poured through this almost every morning and the wear shows. An interesting historical read with plenty of great profiles. I lightened my stash via eBay. Kits I knew I would never build were shipped out. Surprisingly the sale went very well to justify this HpH beauty, also arrived day before our Adirondack outing so I only have a few moments to take a peek. Finally had some time early this week to drool over the parts and cross reference with instructions. This is gonna be fun. Original plan was to start this mid 2015 after my current WIP's and a Tamiya Uber Kit. Ain't gonna happen. I will kick this off late 2014 after my Ju88 Mistel 2. What a beautiful kit. I printed out instructions and may seem tricky. After studying instructions often it seems the journey can be accomplished keeping "test fit, test fit, test fit" in mind. James H, you were spot on regarding your review and much valued advice on this kit. Puts every resin kit I have seen to complete shame. The resin kit bar has been raised with this one. I am actually hoping for a AM conversion for a 410B-2/U4 5cm BK cannon or Bomb Rack with ordinance assortment. Considering Grey Matter's DB 603, firewall and mounts will have to be scratch built. Seems doable though. Belgian chocolate is gone! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 Nice one Rick! Maybe I should pull out the Catalina when you kick yours off? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkranias Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Nice one Rick! Maybe I should pull out the Catalina when you kick yours off? for sure Dave. would be epic, especially if JH gets his game on with his 410 as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Ralph, that's plain, all-out bragging. A big ol' MiG-15 would look superb in the cabinet. ;-) Chris, you really must get back to those therapy sessions! My LHS told me he's expecting one for his shelves. How shall I resist . . .?? DON'T need another 1/24th. (No, really . . ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted July 31, 2014 Author Share Posted July 31, 2014 Just picked this up.... Payday tomorrow there are couple of other things that I have put aside for tomorrow.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmayhew Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Great pick ups guys Rick: I doubt you'll be seeing any aftermarket for the 410, or any other HPH kits for that matter Just no money in it with such a minuscule production run 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpinestar Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Love that 410 Rick. There is one in a museum not too far from me in the UK at Cosford. If you need any particular detail shots let me know, any excuse to walk round there and I'll take it! Chris. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
