content of the First edition kit https://www.facebook.com/Revell Included Exclusives: Duke Hawkins Reference Book (84 pages) Precision-cut Mask Set A3 Poster Cockpit Etch Set looks like great stuff for the preorder price of 120€ https://revell.de/shop/product/037799090-gloster-meteor-f-8-fr-9-first-edition

Superb build Chuck! &nbsp I like the finish

This is sad news indeed I hope that someone will takeover or that Jiri will get his mojo back

Welcome on board! while no 1/32 kits are in stock at the moment the prices for HK and ZM kits are good and with worldwide shipping free over 99€ this could be great place to shop

new Old Man Blog n. 137 posted on ZM website https://www.zoukeimura.co.jp/en/sentiment/oyajiblog_137.html it's fully dedicated to Ho 229B release, which is scheduled for August

Baidu Model News reports that Very Fire is working on a 1/35 scale SB2C Helldiver. If this turns out to be true, it's a somehow disappointing development for those of us who build exclusively in 1/32 scale. Edit: I sent a message to Very Fire to confirm whether the rumor was true, and they replied affirmatively. https://tiebapic.baidu.com/forum/pic/item/af8d221f4134970a10e44f3fd3cad1c8a6865ded.jpg?tbpicau=2025-06-03-05_123fc18bf99ccf7e99f533178d2db635

The kit looks really great. And box art is just perfect. Pre-ordered. Jan

some pics of R-1820 posted on Lukgraph FB page, looks great Quote from FB: We are pleased to announce that the final stages of development for our 1:32 scale Wright Cyclone R-1820 engine model are now underway. This highly detailed set includes 14 precision-designed parts, allowing for easy painting of even the smallest components. The model is going to be part of our PRO line - a premium series that will be known for exceptional attention to detail and the highest-quality 3D printing standards. Each engine will be packaged in recyclable blister packaging and will include clear, comprehensive instructions for both assembly and painting. This engine will be first released as part of our 1:32 Grumman J2F-5 Duck model kit.

Super build! congrats, looks like a great model jan

as posted on their FB page Quote: "Hansa Brandenburg D.I. series 28, 1:32 scale soon from LukGraph. Continuing the series of World War I fighters, we present our next project: Hansa Brandenburg D.I. series 28 in 1:32 scale. It will be an attractive set that will include a pilot and as many as 8 paint schemes as standard. The Premium version will have additional decals with imitation canvas, wood (and camouflage for one of the paint schemes). Reinforced struts, landing gear and wings, two versions of the rudder. It will be a small, compact model in 1:32 scale. Importantly, this can be your first biplane - you don't have to worry about rigging. The premiere of the model are planned for early April."
