  1. For other continental European LSP‘ers, Aviation Megastore in The Netherlands now has it listed for November 2025. Great move, DBMK, this makes it so much simpler and cheaper for us to get one 👍
  2. Seems that shipping has started, I got an email from FedEx that my kit will be arriving on Monday (in Germany). Has anybody else received theirs already?
  3. Google Albion SBW10 and pick the EU dealer of your choice; there are several.
  4. Tell me about it 😂 Just preordered one myself today, for the very same „reasons“ 🙄
  5. Whether EU VAT is a tariff or not is open to interpretation, as in a given EU country, VAT is levied on imports as well as on local products/services. If I understand it correctly, the US criticism centers on the fact that EU exports are not subject to EU VAT while EU imports are.
  6. So if Kotare or Corgi Model Club sends an individual parcel to a US customer, do they then have to make a declaration on the shipping label where the product inside was actually manufactured? Which a US Customs Officer or shipping company employee then actually has to read, look up the tariff and do the maths? What a bureaucratic nightmare 😳 If so, has it always been like that? I‘m in Germany (EU) and recently located some must-have etch parts in Switzerland (non-EU). Shipping and customs fees (payable on my door step to the DHL employee) by far exceeded their price 🙄 Long live free trade!
  7. Thanks, I had found that site too, but can‘t find any -5‘s….
  8. Fantastic work 👍 Any more information on a (1:1?) replica being built? Completely new to me!
  9. 1) I was curious to see what the USCG decals would look like, but even after an extensive search I don’t seem to be able to find a photo of a J2F-5 in USCG markings? Would anybody happen to have one or a corresponding link? 2) Never having had a 3D-printed kit in my hands, I assume that „normal“ polystyrene glue won‘t work and that CA or some sort of super glue is required?
  10. Sorry to read this. I’m in Germany and Super Hobby is ultra-reliable.
  11. Ammo-Mig in Spain has a 40% discount on selected kits these days. Got the 1/32 Kotare Spitfire 1a mid and the 1/32 GWH P-40 „Pearl Harbor Defender“ for €69/$72,-, respectively €93/$97,-, including delivery by FedEx to Germany, where they just arrived today in a huge box on my door step, five days after ordering them….
  12. Let‘s just hope they get the aircraft number (including the small type number above the aircraft number) and font (the RDanAF’s homemade, very peculiar one) correct. I have only ever seen Lima November decals and Stoppel Decals get it right, everybody else fails dismally. The Danish Meteors also had quite a number of Danish language stencils which would have to be included to make it a complete set of decals.
  13. The skin in the type of aircraft ZM is producing is load-carrying; many of them, built without skin sections, would collapse in real life.
  14. Only seen this thread now… haven‘t build mine yet, but I have noted that - the rudder control cable horns are one rib too high up, - the rudder control cables shouldn‘t emerge from a hole in the fuselage, they‘re attached to a bracket protruding from a slot in the fuselage, - the upper elevator control cables need the guide eyelets on the top of the tailplane - the L-shaped aileron control cable idler lever on the lower side of the fuselage needs more detail. Good luck, looks good so far!
  15. @Christian Smekens you should add some company details on your webpage (e.g. legal imprint), e.g. names, address, email etc. Personally, I wouldn‘t feel comfortable ordering something from an online shop with no such details.
