catbloke Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 Apparently offered by De Agostini as a monthly series build. Has anyone ever seen one in reality? For some unknown reason I have a fascination with this aeroplane, and would would be keen to build a 32nd version. Here are two links from the net, from what I can gather there are 24 issues, but only 7 available? http://mavzolhobby.com/store/deagostini/legend-aviation-scale-132/ Jan_G 1

TonyT Posted April 5, 2019 Posted April 5, 2019 That's what I got when googled it 1/24th MIG29!!!!! http://mavzolhobby.com/store/deagostini/mig-29-scale-124/ 1/24 MI-24!!!!! http://mavzolhobby.com/store/eaglemoss/shock-helicopter-mi-24v-scale-124/ Out2gtcha and Jan_G 2
catbloke Posted April 5, 2019 Author Posted April 5, 2019 Hi Tony, thanks, yes I saw that link and posted it in the original post, but having heard about this kit some time ago I was suspicious that perhaps the magazine series never got past issue 7?

catbloke Posted April 8, 2019 Author Posted April 8, 2019 Thanks for the interest and replies Tony, I'll keep waiting : ))
Guest Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 The cost will be ridiculous - hundreds and hundreds. Their DC-3 costs over £600!

I don't think they have a presence in the US? Their thing is to flog stuff on a weekly/monthly basis, be it aeroplane kits, cuddly toys, car kits, etc, via a magazine-like subscription. The cost to the consumer is ridiculously expensive. They currently over a 1/8 scale VW camper van. 24 months at - wait for it - £50 a month, total outlay £1,200. £1,200!!!! For a 1/8 VW Camper model!! Bloody daylight robbery.
Out2gtcha Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Dont they make the 1/43rd scale (or whatever scale) LSP Mellinium Falcon? BloorwestSiR 1

Out2gtcha Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Boy that Hind is cool looking, but at a thousand dollars or so...... Hard no. LSP_K2 1
zeusbheld Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 I, too, am obsessed with this ungainly beast. But seeing the price I'll get a good set of plans instead. It's deep in the queue so by that time maybe Wingnut Wings will make one. Or Copper State. Long shot but I'd have not thought a Gotha UWD kit possible. catbloke 1

Which isn't far off from the Bandai 1/72. They do need a bit of work correcting details though. But it's certainly impressive when done. Out2gtcha 1
Lee in Texas Posted July 16, 2019 Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) IIRC, Fine Scale Modeler had a cover story/plans for this plane back in the early to mid 1990s. edit: yes. March 1991 Edited July 16, 2019 by Lee in Texas catbloke 1
