barkhorn Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Well, it's been more than a year since I wrote this post: And this required more patience than I then expected, but here they are: The kits feature DML/CyberHobby plastic (including both types of canopy) and Cartograf-printed decals, each for 3 marking options, plus stencils for one machine. Hobby 2000 will start shipping them to shops tomorrow. Martinnfb, Kagemusha, Scotsman and 21 others 20 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I missed the first round/offering (under a rock, maybe?) so I need at least the E-7. barkhorn and HB252 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Griewski Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 What to do with my Eduard kits? The E-1 “Weekend” kits and later the “over trees” were very good value for conversions to earlier variants. These Cyber Models offerings have a good reputation. We shall see.

thierry laurent Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Actually they are better detailed, easier to assemble and more accurate. So, as you, I used the Eduard kit with Alleycat resin to make a D. And I have another one for a E1. For later Emils the Chinese kit is the obvious choice. Correcting the slat chord on Eduard kits is a chore. Troy Molitor, Martinnfb, Rick Griewski and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefly7 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 (edited) Excellent, one can always use a few more 109's. Specially with Thunderbolts lurking about. Edited January 26, 2022 by firefly7 Rick Griewski and Troy Molitor 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotsman Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 Just shown up on Hannants Future Releases, at £39.99 each , that seem to be a fairly decent price Rick Griewski, AlanG and LSP_K2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkhorn Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 1 hour ago, Ryan said: Who would be the US supplier? As of now, H2K has no official US partner. However, you might consider ordering the kits directly from Poland. https://www.super-hobby.com/catalog/Germany-267314.html?search_attr_1=1%3A32 AFAIK, Super Hobby shop offers fast Fedex shipping to US in fairly reasonable price.

LSP_K2 Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I really hope they can improve on those funky vinyl wheel well inserts. Those, in my opinion, were the weak link in the Dragon kits. D Bellis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only difference from the original Dragon boxings is the inclusion of both types of the canopy. AFAIR the original kits had either the early OR the late one.
