Beech Staggerwing, Breguet 14, Gauntlet, Lunak, Prefect, Tutor to name but a few. Well, let me react - Stagerwing was the kit done by Sword, there is no chance for reedition. Buy if you meet somewhere., But we will try to arrange it. Bre 14, Gauntlet, Lunak are the kits still or again in our offer. Tutor is coming with the new camo schemes very early as a reedition. There was mentioned that our Spiteful was a copy of CMR. No, it was not a copy. We bought master model from CMR, so it was not a copy. It was kit based on the same master, but not copied. To the "new HQT" versus short run - I fully understand the wish of modelers - do it in HQT or CAD/CAM, in the best quality. But we have to look at finance balance at first. HQT or CAD are the technologies of let us say 3 - 4x higher costs. That is why we can not do for instance MB-5 in HQT. We improved short runs to the higher level, changed mould maker etc. I think that our short run kits of today can be built into very nice result. I agree, that we feel press from the side of customers to do HQT/CAD. We do, but mainstreams only. Short run moulds can not produce tens of thousands runs. (Bf 109 - we sold cca 3x more pieces than Messerschmitt produced during the war, counting all variants). But we also feel the need of variety on the market. So, you can expect two lines of the kits in our range - short runs for "specialities", i. e. Percival Vega Gull (just example.... :-) ) and mainstream types like Schwalbe in HQT/CAD. (again, just example).

Tony Tiger - Well, as we still do not run our own e-shop, under preparation...., ETA December, you have to send us e-mail with your wish. Not so complicated.... 1) choose the kit (kits) 2) send the e-mail to [email protected] (where I am sitting daily.... :-( ) or [email protected] to my colleague Petr Safra. Both e-mails are equal. 3) we will inform you about availability and cost in return, it takes minutes usually. Bad moment - you have to pay - you can use PayPal or banking transfer. At the moment payment is received, we ship the goods. Usually the same day or the next day, not later. ORDERS OVER 30EUR ARE SHIPMENT FREE. ALL THE ABOVE IS VALID FOR AZ AND KP. ALSO THE KITS CAN BE MIX OF AZ AND KP. I hope that this my instructions are clear. :-)

Spitfire Vc update - as we had to replace some parts in our LVG C. VI, using CAD/CAM ones to achieve the best quality, we had to slow down with Spitfire a little. Not so much, but. This cause also some collision with Martin Baker MB-5, which has the priority No. 1, thanks to Telford. Christmas is still possible term, but I expect the new Vc variant in January. Another time schedule change in our production plan is coming, thanks to some Airfix announcements.....

Jan Polc replied to Peter AZmodel/Admiral's topic in Aircraft WWI
Work on our LVG is in the finishing stages. Let us present you boxarts for German and Lithuanian versions - -
Yes. Overseas has another exhausts and skid type U/C. I think this will be corrected in final instructions. Anyway - this option can be used for "early" BE 2c issued by CMR in resin (PUR) and still available at Hannants....

Me 262 - we have this info for some time. We are taking the decision right now. LVG in Polish markings will be released by ARDPOL Poland, we made the agreement, that these markings will be released by them. What we are planing is the box with big decal sheet, including lozenge fabric and four camouflage schemes.

P-51 with fin fillets is a question.... We still did not decide if early D without fillets or P-51B with it. Thanks to changes in panel lines it is neccessary to create whole new fuselage, not only the part of fin fillet. We will discuss this during November, when finishing our next year plans. Let me inform you then.

just short comment - our (AZ) spitfire had a little bit shorter wingspan, not so much, but. That is why in the new KP boxing are the new wing tips, which correct it. in AZ boxing it was not 100% correct...
