f4h1phantom Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 (edited) I hope you don't mind if I ask you to state "Egg plane" or "Kids" in the opening title when you post things like this. No big deal, but you have wasted my time unnecessarily. Thanks for your understandig. Jorge. Edited May 27, 2015 by f4h1phantom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan P Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 When did Meng start producing those? Might be the perfect answer to my next bout of "modellers' block" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene K Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 When did Meng start producing those? Looks like they have a Lancaster and B-17 in addition to the -177. The B-17 looks pretty "cute" (links in original link above). Gene K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 A great introduction to modelling for kids, but a weird change of direction for Meng, and an odd choice of subject matter to appeal to kids 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dambuster Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 A great introduction to modelling for kids, but a weird change of direction for Meng, and an odd choice of subject matter to appeal to kids Seems to fit with the four engined WW2 bomber theme - UK, USA and now Germany. Guesses for what will represent Japan? Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rotorheadtx Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Oh heck yes!!! These bombers are going to be great alongside my eggplanes and Zvezda/Disney Planes kits. (I'm hoping the Japanese bird will be a Renzan! Or even better, a Fugaku!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight_Flyer Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) It could be this is primarily aimed at the Asian market where they might find it more appealing. Usually tied to some Anime tv show but it doesn't appear to be the case here. Edited May 30, 2015 by Knight_Flyer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rotorheadtx Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 So now there is a Tu-2 to go along with the B-17, Lanc, and He-177!! Goodness! http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10336165 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old foxtrot Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Got the Lanc and Fort, they just fall together. Amusing little kits, chuckling away as I built them. The only grioe I have is with the Lanc, it has stickers rather than water slide decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only grioe I have is with the Lanc, it has stickers rather than water slide decals. Unfortunately, so does the He177. Otherwise it looks to be a nice little kit and it should not be hard to find waterslide decals in my spares box to replace most of the markings.

Bonehammer Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I like these bett I prefer these to Hasegawa's Egg Planes Me too, they preserve the original character on each plane rather than imposing a common shape where none was present in origin.
