Kinetic - and obviously later Wingman Models (http://wingmanmodels.com) - is to release a 1/48th Potez-Air-Fouga CM170R Magister kit - ref.48051.

Wingman had the new Kinetic ( as opposed to Avant Garde ) Fouga Magister. It seems these two are going head to head again as they did with the Kfir.

They had a built up version. It includes seperate flaps, open and closed canopies and the solid canopy fairings for the various users

The made up Israeli version was simply stunning, as was the German and Portugese Alpha Jets in the Wingman range that Uses Kinetic tooling with resin upgrades.(...)

 

Any pictures from this Kinetic 1/48th Fouga Magister test build/test shot?

Mine arrived yesterday, the quality of the engraving is very nice at first glance.

Lucky guy. Do you have other Kinetic kits ? If so did the quality of the surface detailing (panel lines, etc) improve or it's the same ?

I wonder, what their next "race" it would be!!!!! Perhaps a 1/48 Aermacchi MB326????

I got one yesterday, 2 in a box which is good as it means choosing which set of markings to use is easier. The moulding does look crisp but there are a lot of tiny and fragile looking parts which will require careful removal from the sprue. There are no instrument panel decals which is a shame as the dials on the kit panels are blank.
