Uncle Les Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 I built it on the long held premise that as soon as you scratchbuild something vaguely popular it'll magically appear as a mainstream kit just as the last coat's drying.. So guys.. I'm doing my bit for the greater good !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Maxim Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 (edited) Reminds me of a Jaguar on steroids. Edited June 13, 2018 by Maxim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chek Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 Love those slim hi-lift wings. Very similar to the Jaguar, but with an additional leading edge flap. Any model should ideally include both retracted or extended options, just because it's an engineering marvel and a thing of beauty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maxim Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 If only Kittyhawk would scale up their 1/48 scale kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkOwl Posted June 13, 2018 Author Share Posted June 13, 2018 If only Kittyhawk would scale up their 1/48 scale kit. And Kitty Hawk told me the will not do it ! This open the market for Revell or most probably for Italeri ! Lets wait and see. By the way, their 1/48 Mirage F-1 kit is full of mistakes and it is a very long process to correct them. There is some complete lists of correction needed about it on some french modellers discussion forums and it is a quite scary listing.

As Ive been told from Glen, the new 1/32nd Jag on its way in 2019, will not be a copy of their 1/48th kit, as I think the company recognizes there are a lot of issues with some of their previous kits in 48th.

Tony T Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 (edited) Good news for Jaguar fans! The landing gear arrangement on the Jag and Mirage F.1 is quite groovy. I very much like the brace of new Kitty Hawk Voodoos which arrived on Monday, and would be very happy to see the F-101B kit scaled-up to 1/32. It's got a little bit of that Mr "Squashy Canopy" Song about it, as does that Jag., but only a very mild affliction compared to the Trumpeter A-7 kits. Tony .
