Silver Fox Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I hope it comes with the earlier single rear gun or improvised twin gun rear canopy rather than the beetle eye as these were more common on Battle of Britain machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleeperService Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I think that I should just get my wages paid into ICM's account direct at this rate. When I get a job that is.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SleeperService Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I know what it stood for but that is a very good looking aircraft and should be another superb kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Fox Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Looks like it only has the later Beetle eyes, maybe they'll be an earlier boxing later. Given ICMs Dornier as a benchmark it will be an excellent kit and surpass the Dragon JU-88( Yes I know the Dragon is an A-4) for buildability.

thepureness Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 anyone seen the decal options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watcher Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Mine is in the post from Hannants, If the decals are like the Do 215 then it will be Montex masks for me - the ones in the kit are scrap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukmike99 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 (edited) Mine arrived from Hannants today.Only had time to give it a quick look,but its a nice looking kit.Rear canopy has two options. Edited November 7, 2015 by ukmike99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watcher Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Mine has arrived and it looks very nice. Decals look much better than the ones provided with the Do 215. Instructions look good apart from the diagramme for the detail marking which is obscured by it being black and white on cheap paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepureness Posted November 8, 2015 Share Posted November 8, 2015 was hoping for a north African or med unit , sure there should be aftermarket available. If the eastern front GB gets in next year, I hope to see one or two of these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vppelt68 Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 was hoping for a north African or med unit But aren´t they there already? The second LG 1 option is for a 5./LG 1 plane in Greece ´41 (and the II/LG 1 shuttled several times between Greece and Sicily then) and the 5./KG 30 was also later based in Sicily. II/LG 1 had several A-5:s in its records until May ´42. All you need is some modellers license to use the kit supplied decals to have a nice Mittelmeer Ju 88!

Charlie19 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 (edited) I started work on mine yesterday and so far have found no issues with it. I also purchased what aftermarket stuff is available right now such as the Eduard interior/exterior set, master MG15 barrels, Eduard Brassin wheels, new seatbelts and canopy masks. I will be ordering the Vector set (thanks for this heads up!) as soon as they are in stock. Initial dry fitting promises a smooth and trouble-free build (famous last words eh?)
