The only thing I can think of is the experimental FW 190 with MK 103 under the wings, and in that case you need two. I know I’d want the sprue so I can build the first release that I have with the Mk 103 instead of the included MK 101. Before the “but the first kit only includes one decal option, and it’s for a Mk 101 bird” argument drops, I have other decals, or can make something up for a 103 armed aircraft. People have their reasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, I think that’s great but to buy a whole new kit for one small sprue….? Just sayin Exactly!!! They will likely sell a few of both.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe when the pandemic started, no one really knew if there would be other kits coming out, or whether Z-M or other model companies would survive, and maybe it was better to have a one Hs129 instead of zero. Or maybe another reason, but it really don’t matter because it’s my reason, and I don’t owe you any explanation. You asked why someone would just want to buy a Mk 103 sprue, and I provided an answer. Why do you care why I bought the first kit? LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I still haven’t built the Hs 129 yet and if I suspect the 103 was a little more prevalent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you care why I bought the first kit? I am not asking because I care. I am asking in order to understand this desire for two different and incompatible things at the same time.

The MK 103 saw a comparatively shorter service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may be so but I’m more interested in the 103. Hope that doesn’t rankle you too much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope that doesn’t rankle you too much I like the HS 129 with the MK 103 too, no problem there. My question is not why you want a MK 103. My question is why do you want a MK 101 AND a MK 103 at the same time when you can only use one. The HS 129 with MK 103 kit will be out at some stage soon.

Kagemusha Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 I think the OP's question has been answered, so for a variety of reasons I'm going to lock the thread. scvrobeson, npb748r, Rick Griewski and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
