JetMads 1/32 Viggen

I don’t think the “hundreds of them” applies to everything.  I think it’s just the number of molds for producing the resin parts.  You need multiple molds for each resin part as one mold isn’t going to last for 500 copies.

The more I look at this project the less convinced I am, but hey what do I know.

“We will be performing test casts, test prints, test builds and mold production (a few hundres of them) in September and October. ”

So a few hundred test builds before the 500? Why not make your life easier and do one test print and cast so people can see it. Even the big boys do that.

Looks like another one I'll have to give a miss. I'd rather use that sort of money toward another 1:16 armor kit, to be honest.

I read it as they're making hundreds of molded production parts.

Paid for my pair, but it took a bit of doing because the first card I used was blocked by the CC company because they thought it was fraud.

 

The cockpit renders on the product page are interesting.  Looks like it’s the D/Di instrument panel.

Paid yesterday but nothing showing on credit card yet so no idea of the final unit price. By my conversion I reckon it will be about £140. With postage on top it should be about £165 ish.

 

final price with postage and cc non U.K. currency Was £172.

Or less than I paid fro the rather cruder Buccaneer - so I'm cool with price .. 

[Stokey Pete]

I’ve had to pull out of the list to buy one of these. Hopefully anothe LSP’er will get the spot on the reservation list. 
I startling health issue has me committing finances elsewhere for the forseeable future, so my model buying has been stopped by the new money boss (wife). 
I still look forward to seeing everyone’s kits when they land, and who knows, maybe buying a later version should Jetmads decide to release one. 

[Royboy]

Yep paid for mine today, quality costs. There's more going into these model kits now more than ever!

Accuracy issues aside, manufacturers appear to be listening to the modellers now regarding detailing and subject matter in all subjects and scales.

Jetmads are going to produce three subjects in 1/18 scale, now those will truly be wallet breaking!!

Jetmads have already delivered on their first product and it looks fine. I hope they release the fascinating subjects on their list like the X-3 and alternate Viggen and maybe Draken versions.

Same same, and like a dummy, hit the button several times and got a txt from my bank fortunately. Somehow I had 8 charges on their site, EIGHT! 

The JetMads site kept coming up with errors, and wouldn't go through, so thought I was forgetting something.......must have hit the button or changed things WAY more than I thought.

 

After speaking to the bank, I did manage to actually get my order in and paid, along with getting my confirmation email too. I am as I do I guess.

Just paid for mine. Is it March yet!
