Guest Maxim Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) Boy this is news to me! Anyone know anymore about it? I'd definitely be in for one. https://www.facebook.com/radleighsbench/photos/a.1417300361623544.1073741828.1387918921228355/1726790827341161/?type=3 Edited February 16, 2018 by Maxim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youngtiger1 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 If they can do this right it will be a money maker for them as there hasn't been a good/accurate Seahawk in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfighter Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 There is no Seahawk at all in 35th scale so far... Looking forward to this, no need to continue my Academy conversion. Great news! stusbke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Well Academy missed a good opportunity! I am happy finally somebody is willing to release the Seahawk! However, the 1/35th scale is a total stupidity. Indeed, for Army helos, I "may" understand the diorama idea. However, who's making carrier deck, vehicles or helo crew in 1/35th scale?!? There are Reedoak pilots but nothing to make a deck section and no possibility to combine with planes... Stupid idea! The only reason I could see would be the intention to have some common sprues with a future Blackhawk release. However, to me, this stays a bad idea. :-( Tony T, Rick Griewski and Out2gtcha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottsGT Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Great! My sons best friend is a pilot of one of these birds. I'll have to build him one now. reconspit and Kagemusha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as nobody does a Sea King in HP2 battery-powered racing scale. Tony wunwinglow and Kagemusha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Maxim Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) Kittyhawk are also producing the 1/35 scale HH-60G Pave hawk. https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1614705148581765&id=736521713066784 Edited February 16, 2018 by Maxim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMK Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Care to elaborate? Goes for artistic over accuracy. Looks fantastic - but an ‘artist's impression' is not a sound basis for a kit. Erick Swanberg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Roof Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Sorry to have to agree, but I think an objective look at almost any KH kit will confirm that the designer really isn't that knowledgeable about aircraft, nor a particularly clever kit design engineer. There are a few of his kits that are pretty good, but the majority are overly fussy to construct, and they've done some *major* boob jobs due to a lack of very basic research and understanding of how aircraft are constructed and how they work (like curved piano hinges, for example). I hope the SH-60 will be a shining exception, but the proof will be in the pudding. Just for clarification, the prior comments were referring to Oliver and his building style.

Guest Maxim Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I would have to agree with Jennings . I do hope they put the effort into the Seahawk though I would much prefer a Seaking but I'll take what I can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
