I hope it will be better than the initial release but I would not hold my breath for that ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mixed things up as I had seen the sprues quite some time ago! This is indeed their first Spit release. Unfortunately it does not really look better than the Hobbyboss kit... Better wait for the Kotare kit even if it was not a 1/35 kit. mozart and CRAZY IVAN5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozart Posted March 27 Author Share Posted March 27 I’m passing on this one anyway; 1/35 scale doesn’t appeal and I have no need of a Vb. Rick Griewski, williamj and wunwinglow 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthebiff Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Pretty sure it's a scaled down Hobby Boss kit with all of the terrible shape issue's to go with it, 35th scale aircraft are not my bag anyway and would never ever buy one!

CRAZY IVAN5 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I'd wait for the kotare issue to honest . I saw the sprue shots on here a while back , looks like a lot of hobby Boss" DNA". If I can spot the problems ,and I'm not that "up to speed " on the early mark spits, then that may be telling in and of itself. I 'm also hearing their -109 G has some Trumpeter "DNA" also [ i' don't have the kit, just what I've heard]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a second, I don:t care if it is a perfect model of the Sptifire from Border, I would go Kotare for a simpler build. Probably will get a V when Kotare gets beyond the early version.

Phantom2 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 I´d wait for the Kotare Spit.... Don´t care much for 1/35 scale.... Stefan wunwinglow and mozart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borsos Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Well, I am keen on this model and look forward to it in anticipation. I am sure it is as nice as the other Border kits and 1:35 looks for me as a perfect scale for models. As I am no rivet counter I am sure I’ll be able to live with minor flaws, if there should be any. mozart and Archimedes 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pup7309 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 (edited) Don’t care about the scale, but have to agree. If Kotare coming out with a better kit why bother, unless Borders one is just as good and they do some airfield set up in 1/35 with tower, Nissan huts ambulance and fuel truck. Or maybe a hanger or bomb protected parking bay. Disclaimer: not wishing this into existence wouldn’t get it anyway probably. Though interesting to think about. I think the ship deck diorama is a phenomenal concept. Hope they do well with it.
