Steve Eagle Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 I assume this will be a re-release of the old kit, but I can always hope otherwise. If anyone has information about this, I am sure others would like to hear also. Alain Gadbois 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Any links, Steve? I haven't heard anything about it, so in theory, it could go either way. Let's hope it's a new tool! But if I'm honest, I doubt it. Kev LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernut Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 Nothing I can find on Hobbylink Japan about it....only the old mold listed as Out of Stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juggernut Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 (edited) It's not a bad kit for it's time and still can be built, rather easily, into a nice model without a ton of aftermarket. It suffers from some cockpit inaccuracies (instrument panel is reportedly not correct for a Ki-43-II and more closely resembles that of a Ki-43-I or so I've heard) but that's not a game changer by any stretch. I have the early version release with a resin "early" cowl. I've heard that the resin shrinks and the cowl will not fit properly...If that's the case then that part will go in the bin and I'll build it as a later version with appropriate markings.

Paramedic Posted October 27, 2021 Share Posted October 27, 2021 So, where´s the re-release of the P-47M?? Nice that Hasegawa are pushing out some of the big, old bird though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice that Hasegawa are pushing out some of the big, old bird though. If they'd re-release the P-47M with the correct engine details, that might be worth my while but since I already have one of their first issue P-47M kits, I'd probably think twice about grabbing any updated release.

I think I'll keep it as the chances of Hasegawa re-releasing an updated P-47M are slim-to-none. Anyway, it would cost a small fortune to post it to Sweden from the U.S. Edited October 27, 2021 by Juggernut Paramedic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
