LSP_Ray Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Prototype looks great, Martin! And I think the price is reasonable, too. This is going to be a big seller! Are you going to have distributors, or are you going to be sole-source ala Wingnuts? I feel a major group buy coming on for the North American contigent...

Out2gtcha Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Did someone say group buy? Me thinks you hit the nail on the head Dave!!! I have to have at least 1 of my natural metal gun nose variants, and of course if the price DOES stay below $150.00 US Ill HAVE to buy a 2nd glass nose as well, after I finish my natural metal foiled "Lady Lil"! Awesome work Martin!!! Cheers, Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cunumdrum61 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Who said group buy!? I'm in! At about 100 Euro each, and the option for the 8 gun nose,I'm in for 6 of them. I just really happy that they have done one before Trumpeter. Do not get me wrong I do like Trumpeter but I think this kit will surpase anything they could do.

LSP_Kevin Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 "Looks nice" would be my stab at understatement of the year. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Fantastic statement of intent. Will you be taking pre-orders? I can see these selling out pretty quickly. And is the F-4K/M Phantom on your list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad-M Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Hi Martin, Well, looks like you have made a few modellers very excited. I was wondering if you could possibly tell us what you used as references, for example, did you crawl all over an actual aircraft, or did you use drawings, etc? I am definately interested in one of these, but not 8 or 10 as my wife would surely ex-communicate me for sure. Thanks Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveJ Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 That looks like a very impressive model!! I am certainly in for one, though I can't imagine where I'll put it once completed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmayhew Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 hi, firstly the kit looks fantastic from what i can see and i am very excited about this release! can anyone tell me if the RAF used the J version at all, and if so where it saw service? thx Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the J models included both the solid nose and the window nose versions. You would need photos of the British Mitchell III to determine which nose was used.

Thanks Brad Brad, We are lucky in this little flat country (called The Netherlands) that we have two genuine B25's on display of which at least one has a impressive number of operation sorties flown during WWII with 320 Sqn (don't know about the other one). The other one was handed over by the Dutch to Indonesia and was later returned as a gift to Prince Bernhard. The flying example came from the USA years ago and has no Dutch history. So there is plenty of reference material available thankfully. Cheers Cees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
