Reply from Jetmads. I assume a second run is quite likely to come: Hello Mr McDonnell, Thank you for your kind email. We are glad to know that your kit has arrived and you are very satisfied with it. As for a second production run, we have been receiving too many messages about it and there is absolutely very high demand for a second edition. This will now obviously be among the top topics in our management's next monthly meeting and while what the outcome will be still remains to be seen, we somewhat expect that the popular demand should be positively responded and addressed. We will be pleased to make the public announcement at once if the second run is a go. Best, JETMADS Team

About a second run I couldn't agree more. I need to have a few more of that kit. Different marking options would be great and open engine nacelles would be awesome indeed but I'm still ok even if the same one comes as a second run. I'll shoot an email to Jetmads and let's see what they have to say about it.

Mine arrived yesterday. All I'm gonna say is that JETMADS have nailed it again! They have been saying all along the way that they will not ship until they are pleased with the kit, now I see what they mean and why it took so long!! Awesome job, worth every penny. Faster delivery would be great if possible, but I can always wait for a most wanted kit if necessary about a year or so which does not exist in the first place considering it takes years and years for the IM companies to develop a certain kit.

Asked them twice if I could get my orders shipped earlier due to private reasons and been kindly rejected. One other thing I understand they are really serious about among many is not allowing any line jumping. I had a few friends who received their kits before I did although they were behind me in the line but we figured out by the tracking info that it was related to the USPS processing mails faster or slower.

1/32 - Douglas X-3 Stiletto resin kit by JETMADS - released
JohnMcDonnell replied to Homebee's topic in The Rumourmonger
Excellent subject, no way I'll miss that! Looking forward to building this. Sold one of my Viggens for 350$ two months ago. Three X-3s reserved now, two of them as an investment. -
Absolutely striking piece of art.

Heavy weathered Russian Navy KP 1/48 Su-25UTG
JohnMcDonnell replied to HartDeco's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Awesome! I never thought a Su-25 would look that good!!! -
That's what I thought when I saw the price, a quarter of the kit's price is too high for a masking set. Besides, rumour is that Jetmads will provide painting guides with the instructions so I'll happily use it if that's the case.

Decal options are excellent, more than I would expect...both in numbers and types. Monthly project update says the decals will come in two A4 size sheets. I also appreciate the approach; they could have just made only a few options for a kit they have already cashed in, but giving the modeler 15 options is a rare thing.

I had a reservation in the primary list for one kit and bought it last week. Having seen those wonderful CAD images I asked if I could buy another one. They said they could accept orders only if there were availabilities and none was at the moment, so put me on the waiting list. Waiting, fingers crossed.
-
That I was wondering too. That means I must be quicker in placing a reservation next time, for I was almost missing the Viggen out

Absolutely beautiful details by the way, considering the scale... I wish they would enlarge this to a 1/32 new Phantom I'm sure so many modelers are longing for, including me top of the list
