LSP_Kevin Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 A long shot, I know, but would anybody happen to have one of the old Neomega 1/48 Tunnan kits lying around that they'd like to sell? I know there are newer and easier kits available, but this is to satisfy the completist in me. And I do intend to build it!

Derek B Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Hi Kev. I do not have this kit, but I hope that you do get one from somewhere? I have recently obtained the Hobby Boss 1/48 (actually 1/51) scale J29B Tunnan kit, which apart for oversize (for its scale) wheels and nose intake - and useless decals - is a pretty good kit; I'll decide how to correct mine when I get around to making it. from reviews I've read, the NeOmega kit is a bit of a bear to make and, on balance, it is probably is a toss up between which kit is the better! The kit I would really like to have is the Pilots Replica J29, which is beautiful and accurate. Good luck Derek Edited March 15, 2021 by Derek B Christoffer Lindelav and LSP_K2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And recently re-released I believe! I'll be aiming to pick up another one when I can. It's pretty much a short-run kit, though, so I'd imagine the Hobby Boss one would go together with less fuss. But I've yet to build either of them, so I guess the jury's still out on that score. Kev Derek B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom2 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Hi all! I can only say; go for the Pilot Replicas´J-29 Tunnan! It´s a high quality kit comparable with Tamiya and Hasegawa, fit, detail and finesse is top-notch, no other J-29 kit comes close! Sadly, it´s somewhat hard to get, but they will make a new run soon from what I hear. Cheers! Stefan Derek B and Christoffer Lindelav 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 Thanks, Stefan. I already have both the Hobby Boss and Pilot Replicas kits, so I'm just looking to complete my collection with the Neomega kit if I can. I also have several 1/72 scale kits, and two of Tigger's vac kits in 1/32 scale. You might notice a pattern forming here!

LSP_Kevin Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 I've been able to track one down through a contact on Facebook, so I should be sorted now. Kev Lee White and Derek B 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
