GreenDragon Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Cybermodeler has posted a look in the box of the new mould T-33 in 1/72nd from Platz in Japan. http://www.cybermodeler.com/hobby/kits/pla...platz_ac6.shtml This boxing comes with decals covering nine aircraft of the JASDF. I assume more will be coming soon with USAF and other Air Forces markings, bound to be plenty of after market decals available. Price quoted is 2310 Yen which currently works out at £18.34 though we'll probbably get stiffed in the UK again! Paul Harrison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julien Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 nice, do platz have a UK agent? Julien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Kunac-Tabinor Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Given the way the fuselage is split - could it be they have an F-80 in mind too? cheers Jonners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenDragon Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 Don't think there is a UK agent Julien, Hannants used to get some of their decals & etched sets but last I remember seeing they bunged it all into the sale/clearance section. Hope you're right Jonners! A bit expensive for my liking but I love the F-80/T-33 series so I might be persuaded. Paul Harrison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cardiff guy Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 This is not a new kit but I've not seen them on sale in the UK. I got mine from HLJ some time ago. A nice kit Eduard also do an etched cockpit. Regards Glenn. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julien Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 For those who want a Platz T-33 but dont want to order from Japan it has been re-boxed by Italeri This has decals for the USAF, France, Greece, Italy, and Spain Well worth the price for the decal sheet alone 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work In Progress Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 It's a nice kit but I struggle with the Italeri price. Maybe I will find a bargain one in the new year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work In Progress Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 (edited) The decal sheet is no use to me though. I accept it's good if you are interested in any of those markings but they're not for me. Of the available kit sheets, the one I'd want is the one from Platz AC-39 as Homebee posted this afternoon for the Skyblazers one, or the '76 Anniversary one, AC-8MS.

Agreed, Given the T-33 is a re-boxed Platz kit, it does seem to be good value when compared with buying the Japanese boxings from the Far East and then dicing with the possibility of import charges. Many others obviously think so too. The Big 'H' sold out on their first batch of the kit within days of receipt and I had to source one from my LMS. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis_C Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) I've built a Sword T-33 because at that time Pfalz kit was only 'orderable' from Japan. So now I feel like buying Pfalz kit from Italeri with that impressive decal sheet is a little bit of a cheating 😉 Edited December 29, 2020 by Dennis_C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
