Scotsman Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Just received an E-mail from relish models here in the UK - Re the HB P-61 their price for the model is a fairly resonable £105,(funny how that sounds , but after £160+ for a ZM Skyraider, and £140 for a B-25!) a lot less than I was expecting based on the US price.. Available for Pre Order in the near future Details here http://www.relishmodels.co.uk/hobby-boss-1-32-p-61b-black-widow.html No I have no association with Relish , other than as a verr happy customer of Graham's Saber, Derek B and Iain 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahernandez Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 That's about $169 USD. Not a bad price for a big a** plane. Mark H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saber Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Not bad at all, Mark.....budgeted $250 per copy, so have some 'wiggle room' for AM goodies..... Two Widows & one A-6....heckuva beginning for 2013....! Going to figure it's not far from being released here... Cheers, Jim petrov27 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Paul Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 If it is indeed right around $169.00 I'll definitely buy one once I see the contents of the actual kit and not the test shots. Great news for Widow fans! Paul Saber and Derek B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Peterpools Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 WOW, under $170 and we were originally looking at over $250. Incredible good news. Looking forward to the Widow reaching our shores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
famvburg Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Doesn't that compare well to HK's B-25s? Saber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 In the UK , yup, HK B-25 from the same Vendor over £140,(around $230) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernut Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) For those of us in the U.S., preordering from Relish may not be a good idea if you're looking for a bargain. The ~$170 price tag comes with an additional $35 shipping charge. Granted $200 is still less than the originally stated $250 + shipping but I'll wait until it lands on our shores and then see what it sells for. Then I'll entertain vendors from which to purchase the kit if the build reviews are such that I won't get aggravated in building it. (Trumpeter kits frustrate me to no end which is why I only have three Trumpeter kits in my entire stash...one of which will probably never get built).

Saber Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Of course there's no official word, but safe bet Pacific Coast might have them for pre-order.....maybe Mid Tennessee Hobbies as well....personally, I wait until Gordon gets them... Just soooo ready for this kit! Cheers, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saber Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 With all the news about the B-17 & several other great releases, has anyone heard anything else about the Widow perhaps? February is right around the corner.... Cheers, Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Relish are quoting March for delivery in the UK, who knows US might be earlier.. Saber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
