My kit was shipped on June 7 and I received it on June 16.

You can't build a Mustang MK IV with the Tamiya kit and the ZM MK IV has some accuracy issues.

I see that I also need the MK. I oil cooler. Unfortunately, after comparison to photos, the blister from the Revell kit is undersized and I am using part 2 from sprue AA of the Tamiya MK IX kit. This is a much better blister. Thanks for the responses.

Thanks!

Thanks. Would the starting blister from the Revell kit be an accurate replacement?

I am curious to know if the Mk Va kit has all the parts necessary in the box to build a Mk I (late) or Mk IIa. Thanks.

Hi, Please put me down on the list as a recipiant. Thanks. Rich

Is the cannon the only change required to do a Yak-9M?

Please put me in as a recipient. Thank you.

Dave, didn't they do that with their entire P-51D series by just adding a new small sprue to the existing kit and issuing it as a different variant, such as the F-6D and P-51D/K? They would not be producing "an entirely new kit". I don't understand why you are being so dismissive when all I was trying to do is shed some light on why someone listed the P-51K request. The ZM kit does include the part, but it is under size compared to the Tamiya opening. I for one would build a Tamiya MK IV.

I can see their point. You can't build a louvered vent P-51K from the Tamiya kit and the resin replacements available don't fit the Tamiya kit to the same standard as the rest of the kit. It would just need to include those vents to reissue the kit as a P-51K or Mustang MK IV.

It appears that mine was shipped directly from Border, even though ordered from an internet hobby shop.

I have the same issue with the main canopy and I am hoping to get a replacement. I agree with your assessment on the packaging.

I just received a text from DHL that shows my kit from Lucky Models is scheduled to be delivered next Tuesday, May 17.

scott_t asked: "Did anyone who pre-ordered from Andy's Hobby Headquarters receive an email today asking for the balance of their order to be paid? I placed a $50 deposit and the remainder due is $549.99 and $33.00 tax." Hi, Scott. I received the same email and finished my payment. The cost included free shipping. Looking forward to this one!
