Rob Colvin 503 Posted July 14, 2017 (edited) I am oddly interested in this kit. I hope the shapes are good. As far as the dauntless....i wish there was a little after market support. PE panel, brass gun barrels, wheels, belt buckles and masks/decals.... Edited October 24, 2017 by Rob Colvin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tony T 4,957 Posted July 14, 2017 Seems like a lot of people assume that everything served on the plate MUST be consumed right there, right then. Portions are what the individual makes of them. ... All the wacky size comments read just like the same type of comments made about 1/32 by smaller scale snobs. ... D Whoah! Steady there! We're neither "wacky" nor "snobs". Just well adjusted folks with a sense of humour who don't want to leave the wings on the side of the worktop or put the propeller in a doggy bag.

LSP_K2 20,457 Posted September 7, 2017 I do look forward to seeing the model, but in all likelihood, will not be getting one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vulcan32 Posted September 7, 2017 110+ parts for an 1/18 kit, seems to be pretty basic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob Colvin 503 Posted September 7, 2017 The 1/32 Hasegawa kit is around a 100 parts......if it is at least that good........it will make a great starting point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Williams 2,712 Posted October 24, 2017 Looks like sprue shots are up on the HB page. Doesn't look very impressive as far as detail goes, especially the faint detail on the IP. http://www.hobbyboss.com/index.php?g=home&m=product&a=show&id=1356&l=en Also in stock at Squadron. https://www.squadron.com/HobbyBoss-1-18-Focke-Wulf-Fw-190A-5-HY81802-p/hy81802.htm Seems like it's pretty overpriced for what you get in the box IMHO.

Like I said back in the beginning of July, it's basically a toy like the stuff 21st Century Toys put out years ago. 1 Tony T reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Out2gtcha 30,519 Posted October 24, 2017 This might make a cool ceiling queen, with a sweet paint job. They make any 1/18th pilots? 1 BiggTim reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tony T 4,957 Posted October 24, 2017 Yep, as predicted, it is essentially a toy. I'd love it if I were 11 yrs old. Hope it sells to aunties and uncles and encourages their nephews and nieces into the hobby Tony 1 LSP_K2 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
