Kagemusha Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I wouldn't be surprised if KASL did some sets for the kits, including cockpits. Fingers crossed, toes too! Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F16 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I had the Black Box 1/32 set when I build 1/32 models (now I am a 1/48er guy) and it was wonderful . Now I have the 1/48 KASL F-5s sets and they are also great ! F16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less we forget that they're monitoring how the market sales for the specific kits are doing. For example, if Academy had chosen not to offer the AFV CLUB F-5E/F in a lowered price neither AIRES nor KASL would have produced their sets. As they say, 'patience is a virtue'. Let's start with buying the kits (that is, for us you haven't done so yet!) and then wait a little bit more for either the AIRES and KASL resin sets to fill the market.

Fenous Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Probably their other sets for KH kits did not sell well..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever is deciding Aires release list needs to really get out more. Someof there decisions both for releases and non releases make you wonder if they have any idea about what would be popular. No A-6 stuff in 48th or 32nd for a kit now in its second run in both scales, No Mig-29’s lucky we have CWS but lost money for Aires. Lets release heaps of stuff for the worst Trumpeter kits then ignore the big selling good ones...now lets do the same with Kittyhawk...marketing insanity.

I've got 11 of the KH F-5E's, 3 F-5F's, and 2 Trumpeter A-6A/E's. They could all use some resin cockpits, but thus far, no one wants to take my money Fred K.

Dave Williams Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Maybe Aires is cutting back on 1/32 stuff. What was the last set they did? Stuff for the KH T-28? Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably jump on one of my F's when the cockpit set comes out. I've wanted to build a 32nd F-5F for at least 20 years now! Fred K.
