I can see the kit all over ebay but can't find anything meaningful as to a review, what's in the box etc etc

 

Anyone?

 

 

It's a Sturmbock? I thought it was a night fighter variant.

The Night Fighter was released last year:

.................. it's the same basic kit with some new variant specific sprues and I'm sure it will be a great build

 

 

Having built an A-8 Stormbock, I can attest that the differences  *SHOULD* boil down to :

cockpit fuselage side armor plates

- later smooth tires (depending on the individual airframe)

- short wing canon w/boot

- new canon ejector chutes

- upper fuselage mg covers

- armored side glass panels

- armored windscreen 

 

All mileage may vary

So is the 1/32 RoG Stormbock out and available?

 

Certainly is. Kits available all over evilbay and LMS

I call it evilbay because everytime i go on there i find 'more' kits i'd love to bid on with money i don't have. Therefore it's evil by the temptation.

 

I don't do PP credit. Normal PP fees are evil enough for me.

Gents,

 

my 2 Sturmböcke have arrived yesterday. Just a very short (!) look at the kit yet: new fuselage halves including side armour moded on, 2 different canopy parts (one with Blinker - the add-on armour glass - and one without as a lot of Sturmböcke dismounted them due to the tendency to get foggy at different heights) and two colorful markings.

As written - this was just a very short first look at the kit. Tomorrow I will post a few pics.

Ah that'll be why then. I'm on .co.uk evilbay. There are kits going for well under RRP. I'll get one eventually.

£30.35 on EBay from Jadlam if you buy two.

 

Revell kits are just ridiculously cheap.
