Homebee Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Here are some news from Pilot Replicas ( https://www.facebook.com/pages/Pilot-Replicas/390440134419981 & http://pilot-replicas.com/ ). I'll believe it when I see it... Anyway a 1/48th Saab J-21R - jet variant - would be of my interest. About the loooonnng announced Saab Sk.60/105 see here: http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234928441-148-saab-sk60a-by-pilot-replicas-box-art-cad-pic/?hl=replicas Source: http://www.network54.com/Forum/149674/message/1411215996/An+update+from+Pilot+Replicas Quote QuoteQuote Quote An update from Pilot Replicas September 20 2014 at 8:26 AM David Cooper HyperScale Forums Pilot Replicas can best be contacted in Facebook, I had a reply in Facebook, from Claes Wahlund regarding their long awaited 1/48 SAAB 105/SK-60 kits. - He says they are working hard on a 1/48 SAAB J-21. - To be patient regarding the 1/48 SAAB 105/SK-60, it will be available soon. - I also see they are working on a 1/48 Volvo 959A Tow Truck!

Lars Befring Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I have seen test-shots of the J21 so that project is moving forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homebee Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) I have seen test-shots of the J21 so that project is moving forward. A Saab J-21 or/and a J-21R? And what about the Saab Sk.60/105? V.P. Edited September 20, 2014 by Homebee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars Befring Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 so far I´ve just seen testshots of the J21, but as far as I know the J21R are in the plans as well. the prototyping for the SAAB 105 looks amazing! but so far I´ve only seen testprints and no actual plastic. Their Pilots in 1/72-1/48 and 1/32 looks superb! so everything looks very promising /L 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Those CAD images certainly look the part. Quite tempted by this one already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flarpen Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Yea, sure looks tempting to buy at least 3-4 Bear in mind that these CAD pictures are quite old (acc. to pic names from nov 2013) and has supposedly been perfected quite a bit since then. Love to see some more up to date progress. /Johan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homebee Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 (edited) Nice. A little miracle, at last something concrete from Pilot Replicas... Wrong variant for me. Now about the J-21R variants? And what about the looooong promised Saab 105/Sk.60?

Christer A Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Details look very nice, even though the treadmarks on the tires look a little overdone. They were quite tractor-like on the original, but not that pronounced. Even so, it looks like it's getting closer to production! Yay! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 It's downright sensational, I think, that a mediocre though rather special looking fighter that didn't serve anywhere but in Sweden is the subject of a state of the art 1:48th commercial kit. I will buy several, of course, and hopefully Maestro Models will help out with cockpit goodies and perhaps even a complete engine update. I guess that those tractor mainwheels are going to appear in refined resin, too. If not, a couple of swipes with wet'n'dry will probably do the trick. Thank you, Pilot Replicas, for your adventurous spirit! I hope the SK 60 will appear soon, too. Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 A delay happened, that's what they say. It's scheduled to appear in due course – whenever that is… ;-) Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
