Movie Buchon - Special Hobby

[petr@SpecialHobby]

Besides the standard Spanish Buchon boxing, we´d like to offer to modellers also the "movie star" Buchon. This plane flew in the classic 60´s aviation movie The Battle of Britain. And it flew not only as a Me 109E (with clipped wingtips, false nose guns and tailplane bracing struts) but surprisingly also in RAF camouflage as a "Hurrischmitt".

See for yourself on our blog.

Good afternoon

Personnally I would prefer to hear news about the Fouga Magister and Mirage F1 ...

I have been told that they willl they be available in october but is it october 2014 or 2015 ?

As a fan of the Battle of Britain film ( I might have watched it more than twice ) might have one of these.

Patrice,

Perhaps it would be better now to throw a bit of light on this matter: The moulds for the two French jet planes you are so eagerly looking

for (as well as we do) are made of full-steel, it means that they are not a short-run type of moulds. And this type of steel moulds

is being prepared in a different tool-shop than the other (short run and other) moulds of ours.

Therefore, edition of any of our new short-run models cannot affect the time schedule for our long-run models.

Our mouldmakers are busy with the Fouga and Mirage, I expect to have yet another set of testshots on my desk during the next week.

If there will be no further issues to corect, the production may begin quite shortly.

Good afternoon Petr

Thank you for these precisions ...

I don't know much about kitmaking but as in January you posted pics of the sprue I was thinking that the production would have started soon after that ..

Regards

Patrice
