Brian79 129 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Hi guys, Just wanted to let you know that we have a great set of wheels coming for your large scale Hobby boss kit. I'm sorry that I don't have pictures right now, but these should be up and ready on the website by the end of the month. If you've seen our website you know we are going through growing pains, so just bear with us and we'll have these as well as the zuni pods and Su-25 wheels up and ready for you guys. Thanks for your support! Brian Link to post Share on other sites

scvrobeson 3,377 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 So, is this set still coming out? I've got an F-84 sitting in the stash right now, and some new wheels would be amazing for it! Matt Link to post Share on other sites
timvkampen 364 Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 yes, where are they Link to post Share on other sites
A340 Pilot 113 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Yes! I need 2 sets of F-84E/G wheels. Stein Link to post Share on other sites
Brian79 129 Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 Hi guys, They are coming, the masters are in Pauls hands, but the Skyray is the number one priority now. Just put those F-84s on jack stands and hold tight you'll have them in due time they are definately worth the wait. B Link to post Share on other sites
A340 Pilot 113 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 very sweet. Now if someone could tackle the intake issue.... There's an issue with the intake? I didn't know that. Stein Link to post Share on other sites
timvkampen 364 Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 (edited) There's an issue with the intake? I didn't know that. Stein Hi Stein, Well, there is a major issue. The intake lip is pure fantasy when you study reference material of the original Thunderjet. The intake should be smooth without the lip. Tamiya and Revell in 1/48 also did not come up with a brilliant engineering solution for this. I personally think that is just too bad since it is the eyecatching element of the Thunderjet. However, from an engineering point of view (injection molding that is) it may be that it is quite difficult to achieve the realistic result closely. Maybe an aftermarket company could tackle it...but it would require a full redesign probably...ergo: expensive. (Zactoman?)..and is there a market for it. see: http://ipmsnl.netfirms.com/walkarounds/CH-F84G/F84G-CH.html Regards,Tim Edited February 2, 2012 by timvkampen Link to post Share on other sites
