smitty44 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Don't know if you guys have seen it or not and while box art isn't very important to me at least we know we will see the A-6 soon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest styrenedemon Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Hope there is a Hobby Boss downscale. 32nd Intruder?! Way too big for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest styrenedemon Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Not that big...the wings fold! Forgot about that...so yeah...I'll probably need one. I'd go for heavy weathered Hi-Vis scheme myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty44 Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 I will have to source some photos, but remember some A's had all black radomes that looked pretty cool...Marine Corps Intruders mosly I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I could see myself getting one of these... but I would prefer a EA-6 Prowler! I am dying to do this scheme! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty44 Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 You mean like... YES!!! I stand corrected it's a Navy bird, but I think that's the look I want to go with the A. The E will be around soon enough for us to dirty up.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 That is a cool scheme indeed... But you can't bet Darth Vader.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest styrenedemon Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Time the fudge out! Am I seeing this right? Canopy framing in opaque plastic? Could this mean the clear pieces could be drop ins? I've so wanted this to happen in modeling my whole life. I really think painting the interior color to be seen through clear plastic is annoying, but when the framing gets complex I just don't have what it takes to mask the insides.

smitty44 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 Although it looks as if the test shots differ from the production as far as the canopy goes, here she is. http://www.trumpeter-china.com/a/en/product/fly/1_32_Series/2013/0605/2407.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest styrenedemon Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Yeah...I figured the parts in the above pic were just a placeholder. I have to say I'm really digging this kit. I'll wait around a bit until someone builds one up to see how well it goes together though. I don't like fit issues with big expensive kits. Fingers crossed.

recon Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Just curious as Megahobby is showing it as "newly arrived"!!!! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty44 Posted June 7, 2013 Author Share Posted June 7, 2013 Ya well Stevens International, Trumpeters distributor here lists it as in stock!! I would think you'll find cheaper than that price soon though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recon Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I can get 25% off from a hobby shop in Madison, WI. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty44 Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 Got in touch with the gang at Sprue Bros and they said next week sometime. Correct me if I am wrong but it would seem Trumpeter is releasing the A-6 here in the US first, interesting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recon Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I am waiting to see how much Scalehobbyiest is going to sell them for. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty44 Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 $240 on Stevens International? F- that. I'd pay $150ish, but $240 is ridiculous. Ya well that wont be the price we see in stores, if you look at all their other prices compares to what they actually sell for in stores you get a better idea. It seems the best prices are usuall about 50 to 60 bucks less than the msrp at Stevens.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest styrenedemon Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 So what do you guys think the odds are that we will see a Prowler? I'd probably prefer the E, but I'd much rather have a Prowler. Curious if I should hold off.....hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
