Beardie Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Hi chaps! Feast your eyes on this link that our very own 'Redcap' sent me tonight https://hlj.com/product/wng32701/Air If this is true then this really is the golden age of World War 1 aircraft modelling A trio of Albatri in fetching Jasta 5 outfits with 11 scheme to select from As an aside I see that, on the Wingnut Wings website, you are no longer directed to Weta to buy but kept on the Wingnuts website. I guess that Weta have been cut out which is not surprising considering their poor performance. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redcap Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 What a surprise indeed eh Marty! We don't need any more of these great kits and it's just for the box art you understand... Gary 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardie Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 Well folks it is now official, the kit has now been added to the Wingnut Wings website (for release in July) yippeeee!!!!!! I am one very happy Wingnut this year. Looks to be a huuuugggge box with a great set of Jasta 5 schemes to choose from. I feel a Jasta 5 Diorama coming on 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear Paw Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Oh my goodness! Someone at Wingnuts must have been listening. I am on my 11th Albert DVa i in 1/72 (Airfix Revell and Italeri) covering many of the Jastas. I will be getting one of these set of three. I will have to start building a little factory so I can set up a production line. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardie Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share Posted May 13, 2017 Well with FCM aftermarket decals for the machine of Fritz Rumey, or a copy of the original Wingnuts D.V kit plus four of these triple sets you could do a large display of Jasta 5 machines 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viking Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 Oh that is exquisite! Wingnut Wings continue to amaze and delight. I must have that set. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan B Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I can now confirm I will be getting the Jasta 5 Trilogy in but it's a bit early yet to be able to confirm the price other than to say it will be very competitive as usual Duncan B 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howlindawg Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 The set looks great but I wonder how many people actually have space for three versions of the same kit. I won't be surprised to see individual kits being sold off from this boxset through private adds or auction sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardie Posted May 16, 2017 Author Share Posted May 16, 2017 Space be damned I already have four of the WIngnuts Alb D.V/Va in the stash but it is not going to stop me getting at least one copy of this set. It is too beautiful to be left on the shelf 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FZ6 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Interesting to look at the Sprue Breakdown on Sprue A, you get 3 sets of D.V and D.Va specific parts. Could be really useful for the spares box. I bought a D.Va OAW box to build as a D.V when that kit sold out so this would be a useful source of parts. Or I could build the one I have as a D.Va OAW and just buy one of these.
