Mike Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Gents - could we revert to English please, to save the non Czech speakers from having to resort to Google Translate for each post? We're an English speaking board, so English is our chosen language, but don't worry if your English is a bit spotty... so is ours! C/o Google Translate: This edition I bought první..plánu also obtiky to Tuskegee Airman ?? I have not heard of any plans to release a version with the designation Tuskegee Airmen. How is the kit that you bought? We would like to hear about it. Even Google can't handle everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And nice to see your request delivered in a proper, professional way, and did not involve asking the original poster to take a trip to Mars, which I consider quite condescending.

JBr Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Even Google can't handle everything Google can't handle it because it either already is a result of machine translation to Czech or an atempt to write in Czech by a non-native speaker. Anyway, those kits haven't been released yet. They are planned for late March release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horr!do Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Dont worry. In czech text is not information about this kit. Its only some blablabla nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy Bird Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 The original Czech language poster said he bought that edition (the box art immediately above his post) first, and was wondering whether one of the schemes was for the Tuskegee Airman. A legitimate comment and certainly not "blablabla" nothing. My response (from Bing translator) was intended to see if he could provide any further information about the kit he bought. Even though the kit hasn't been released yet, it wouldn't be the first time that someone got an early copy. It's only a couple of weeks until late March! Alternately, he was saying that this was the kit that he was planning to buy, and that distinction could have been lost in the translation. (And by the way, Mike's Google translation into English from my Bing translation into Czech is perfect, it's exactly what I wrote - so much for the theory that something that has already been machine translated can't be machine re-translated). I'm very interested in this kit and would like to know more about it, as I think many of us would. We've all been waiting for an accurate early Mustang! Since the original Czech language poster was a newbie, I didn't see the harm in trying to respond to him in the same language he posted in order to coax out some more details, in case he actually has a copy of the kit. I don't think he deserved the initial rude response he was given. He lists his location as Slovenia, for what it's worth. I fully understand Mike's need to keep the forum in its native language - thanks for the reminder! Cheers, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookenbacher Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 I'm excited for this kit too, I have a bunch of Polish/RAF Mustang markings waiting in reserve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horr!do Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 (edited) To Navy Bird - sorry but Im Czech, I know something about my born language. Edited March 8, 2015 by Horr!do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Boyd Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 (edited) Hoping we get some good I mean, RAF boxings. Doesn't matter - one can never really have too many P-51s in the stash,especially if we can finally get a decent B/C.... Shame on you, Tamiya, for making us wait this long!! But the smart money says that Xtradecal is making up a Commonwealth sheet even as we speak. Edited March 17, 2015 by Byron Boyd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookenbacher Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Hurray for positionable flaps - I expected the plastic to be tan-ish like the AZ Spit IX. Looking forward to this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Fleming Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Hard to tell from the shots; the leading edge wheel well extension looks OK in plan view, I hope it has the correct view head on (The extension angles down in a 'v' shape) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruudster Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 i'm liking what i see so far. Love the dropped flaps option! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominikS Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I'm not a Mustang specialist but windshield looks very strange. The angle is wrong as far as I can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espeefan Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 The sill of the windscreen lacks the crescent shape. Rather it appears almost a straight line. Otherwise it looks OK to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
