Radub Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 (edited) 2 hours ago, Vincent said: Don't get me wrong, the kit seems nice overall It is hard not to “get you wrong”. You know… for someone who, allegedly, “loves the Bf 109’, you show very little “love” for a model that was intended to be as accurate as possible. The things that are right with this model outnumber thousandfold all the bad things you concentrated on. Does this model have “issues”? It is extremely possible. No model is perfect, no manufacturer ever managed that. So far, the “issues” you found are very small-to-unnoticeable and easily fixed. Why don’t you spend as much time listing all the good things that this model got right? No one will think of you as a less of an “expert” if you also said nice things.

Scotsman Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I'm not by any means a 109 specialist I know little about them relatively, but my goto model when I need to get my mojo going is a Hasagawa 1/32 109G/K series - such a simple easy little kit - but this ZM monster looks like a must buy. Do they sell it by the carton? ColinR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kagemusha Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Good to read there are unused parts included, so maybe the standard canopy, and tall tail amongst others. VintageEagle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the pictured sprues are all included it should at least be the canopy and tall tail. The standard canopy can be seen in the latest post (part 5) and the different rudders in part 3. I also see both tall and short tail wheels in part 3. That gives plenty of options. Edited May 23, 2022 by VintageEagle Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
