Andreas Beck Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 The kit has some downsides. The rather heavy orange peel surface can be flattened on the big surfaces but it destroys detail on smaller things esp. when they are dominant and visible. The purchase of Eduard`s BRASSIN wheels for the kit is strongly recommended.

Supersonic Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I can not confirm that . My Taifun arrived this morning and the sprues are lying on my table for inspection . No orange peel and the details are fine and crisp . For me a very nice kit for a good price ( 35,89 Euro/Germany) .

Iain Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Looks like this kit will be with some of the UK retailers in the next week, or two. Just ordered one... Iain MikeMaben, scvrobeson and Out2gtcha 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royboy Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Got a couple on the way! I hope they follow it up with some more in our scale if it's deemed commercially successful for them. Lot's of toes being dipped now, more exciting times ahead I think! Happy days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, the kit was started by Striped Fighter, and was taken on by Eduard, when SF didn't want to proceed, and like the additional propeller, they have produced parts where the kit was lacking.

Troy Molitor Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Over on the ARC forum there is a really nice Eduard instrument panel for this kit. Really nice looking. The aftermarket is pouring in on this kit. Bring it on. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 I think the Eduard IP might be included in the kit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dennis7423 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I perused the instructions on Eduard's website, and it looks great! This just might make it into the stash. - Dennis S. Thornton, CO USA Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would appear these flew (no pun intended) out of the warehouse at a rapid rate of knots. I just managed to snaffle one before they went. On 3/20/2020 at 1:59 PM, Iain said: Indeed - I'd say that's pretty reasonable! Iain Iain, They are retailing at just north of £36.00. If you are interested in getting your hands on one, I have one for just south of £30.00? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picked up the Brassin wheels and an Eduard Look IP as well. I'll see if I can get a review up when I get it. Order placed around 3pm something CST and got a note a bit ago that it's already been shipped. Says it should be delivered Saturday, but SB is close enough that occasionally I get 24 hour delivery, so might be here tomorrow.

LSP_Mike Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 It seems all they have at SB is the profi pack which has a PE panel. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have the LOOK IP panel which is probably that, the 108 itself, then two Brassin options for wheels, one with a ribbed hub and one has a covered outer hub. I guess I should say they had yesterday.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
