Zero77 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Hello, I've just seen that Italeri released a new box of their F-104G/S with a new sprue, with an Orpheus reccon pod and 2 chaff dispensers. reconspit and Kagemusha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgbgtv8steve Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Very nice I'm sure but the TF is long overdue - please Italeri, can we have it soon!! Regards, Steve S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 (edited) "unfortunately" it doesn't suit the Dutch 104's it was orriginated for, the orpheus pod had a more streamlined front in part with the rest of the body, as opposed to the Italian version, but i guess with a cut TLC along the horizontal plain it could be adjusted........

LSP_K2 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Unfortunately, I haven't even yet gotten the straight F-104G, as it just seems too darned expensive, at least to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin, try this link, it's in german, but they send P+P free anything over €22, and they have the italeri F104's ........ https://www.haertle.de/index.php?

Dave Williams Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Looks like it's in stock at Hannants. https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/IT2514 Wonder how/when it will make it to the US since I think Hobbico was Italeri's US distributior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 This looks to be a good one, and FINALLY a model company who got the Canadian Maple Leaf correct for a change.....and even looks to be the correct blue on the roundel........ good going ! FINALLY......although I have a ton of aftermarket roundels, it is still a good thing and attention to detail....... might have to get this one....
