    Yes would it have been nice to see it corrected. But if the price is right I’ll just use window decals and call it a day.

    +1 for the 707 or 737-200. But I’ll take a bundle of 727’s first! So many color schemes…

    Different nose cone and LEX options. Canopy hinge detail. Weapons load out with fuel tanks. Decent ejection seats. I think I even see the extended dorsal fairing from the Chilean machines? Please Wolfpack, take my money!!!

    I’m scratching my head at 1/200. Would have bought a few in 1/144. Well I wish them luck anyway.

    Looks lovely! I have a thick binder full of decals waiting for this kit. I’m thinking: Braniff Calder RAM Eastern (silver) Avianca Pan Am (billboard)

    I like the look of the canopy! Might actually be the correct length unlike the Hobby Boss and Dream Model. I’ll take five please!

    Hopefully to the same standard as their Buran kit which was quite good.👍 Maybe now I can retire my primordial Eastern Express kit.

    I enthusiastically support this project! Although starting off with maybe a 1/72 727-100 or DC-9 would be more practical from a business point of view. I’ll take a 1/72 Tristar please and maybe a 757 too. And if a 1/72 DC-10 comes along later, even better! I have no room to put them but I’ve never let such minor problems stop me before…. Best regards….Duncan Already planning how to get the packages past the wife…

    Hmm. Doesn’t look like a reissue of the tired Frog molds, which is a good thing! Just have to prepare myself for the sticker shock…. Best regards…Duncan

    Huh? I thought they were doing a A340-600???

    If they are only doing reissues how about a repop of the 1/144 ATR-42 with some new ‘super decals’? I think it is a nice little kit that is getting difficult to find. Best regards….Duncan

    Just got mine and I love it! Yes the fan disks are questionable (PAS kit had same issue) but everything else looks amazing. The molding really captures the ‘character’ of the plane very well, especially the nose/windshield. After years of wrestling with the Minicraft effort, this kit is a godsend. And the price is excellent too (take note, Eastern Express). Can’t wait till they reach my local hobby shop so I can buy five more. Thank you Zvezda!!! Best regards…Duncan ps. Hey Zvezda, show some love towards the 707 and 727. We won’t mind!

    <makes you wonder why only two variations? > I believe one is steel brakes, the other carbon brakes. Best regards...Duncan

    Was there a separate release announcement for the 1/72 Electra? I’ve been following it here on Rumormonger and didn’t hear anything about the release. I bought one on eBay anyway, thank you for the heads up. I will buy the Eastern express Electra also. The Electra was just one of those planes that were never done justice in plastic (757 as well). It’s amazing but I never thought I’d see the day where almost every semi-popular airliner has been done in 1/144 injected plastic. And from Russia too! Good times... Best regards....Duncan

    Check out the 787, they’re all over that thing! But you gotta use torx plus, or you strip out the screw head with regular torx.... Speaking of Mirage 2000’s, are the Peruvian birds bespoke versions or can I use the Modelsvit kit? Best regards....Duncan
