Possible new release (a Trio!!!!) from Wingnut Wings

Recommended Posts

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 :D A trio of Albatri in fetching Jasta 5 outfits with 11 scheme to select from :thumbsup:

 

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.

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. :pilot::pilot::pilot:

 

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 :nuts::drunk:

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.

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 :drunk::devil::wicked:

That would be a lot of little hangers to keep all of them in.

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 ;)

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.

Space be damned :rofl::drunk: 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 :yahoo:

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.
