Vlamgat9 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 So wish someone would do a new one in 1/48! It's small enough in that scale let alone in 72! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

71chally Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I'm not up on the tech stuff, but does 'injected' suggest it will be plastic kit, as resin is usually cast? Would be great in 48th as well, hopefully if this one is a strong seller, you never know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Resin can't be injected, it can however be rotocast which gives a similar quality finish - therefore it will be a styrene model if it is injected. This should be a quarter scale at the least if not 32nd. Thomo. Edited August 29, 2017 by The Tomohawk Kid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

k5054nz Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Dave Lochead of Kiwi has started injection-moulding, hence the name change (he's released several Harvard and Texan conversion kits with injected parts in the past few months). Great news but I've no idea how far away this kit is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
