nmayhew Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 hi guys, i have looked at the LSP Kit Database but cannot get the answer... is the Revell Ju87D kit #04711 the same as the Hasegawa kits, just a different box / brand? i keep seeing them go cheap on ebay and am getting an itchy bidding finger! cheers Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I would imagine them to be the same kit Nick. I'm not aware of Revell ever releasing their own tooling for a Ju 87D. But having said that, I wasn't aware of them reboxing the Hasegawa kit either. Once the situation is confirmed, we'll update the database to reflect the facts.

maverick728470 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 The revell kit is not even close the hase kit.The 21rtC kit is pretty close as to eyeballing it and taking the 21rtC fuselage and putting it against the hase one.Did the same as to the revell kit to the 21rtC kit.And there is way to much difference as to details and length.Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 It is a re-box of the Hasegawa kit, they had them for sale at Modelzone for about £15 over the festive period. http://www.relishmodels.co.uk/revell-1-32-...-87d-stuka.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that heads-up, Nick. I've now remedied the oversight in our LSP database -- specifically, here. Charles Metz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allok Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 Thanks Charles. I meant to do that when I up-dated the box art... and then completely forgot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It actually says that, right in Nick's first post... Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allok Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Is the Revell Ju87D kit #04711 the same as the Hasegawa kits, just a different box / brand? Actually Nick, I believe that although the moulding is the same, the Revell issue lacks the "Rudel" decal option. Someone else may be able to confirm/deny this?

nmayhew Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 thanks guys for your help and confirmation not too fussed about decals, but the revell boxings always seem to go for waaay cheaper than hassy ones on evilbay... thanks nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kagemusha Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 the Revell issue lacks the "Rudel" decal option. The Hasegawa releases of the D don't include Rudel decals. not too fussed about decals, I think it's fair to say the Revell decals are better than the Hasegawa ones, though it depends on your preferences ultimately...

Kagemusha Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 St26 has a Hans-Ulrich Rudel marking option. They're coming out of the woodwork, hadn't seen that release before, sorry Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
