Homebee Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) Yes another 1/32nd Mirage III is in the pipe. Kinetic has just announced a new tool 1/32nd Dassault Mirage IIIE/O kit in progress for 2015 - ref.K3209.Not bad as this variant of the Mirage III opens the door to a family of aircraft like Mirage 5/50 and their numerous widely-exported versions.Source: https://www.facebook.com/Kineticmodel?fref=nf QuoteKineticmodel 29 janvier, 21:49 ยทA great news for all Mirages Fans.... K3209 - 1/32 MIRAGE IIIE/O in progress... V.P. Edited January 17, 2016 by Homebee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azzaob Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hazard a guess this one will beat the Italeri IIIC into plastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f4h1phantom Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Well! At least somebody IS thinking, unlike Italeri! If I were a kit manufacturer THAT is the version I would tool first. Good news, thanks for the link. Jorge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foghorn Leghorn Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) This could end up being the year of the Mirage kits ... IIIE is the best/logical choice Edited January 30, 2015 by neilscrim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homebee Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) IIIE is the best/logical choice And the next logical choice for Kinetoc is IMHO a family of 1/32nd Mirage 2000, considering Kitty Wok has a 1/32nd Mirage F-1 in project... Who's up for a 1/32nd Rafale? V.P. Edited January 30, 2015 by Homebee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foghorn Leghorn Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I'm still waiting for a 48th Rafale C. I find it bizarre that Revell's got all the bits to make one but they haven't done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it bizarre that Revell's got all the bits to make one but they haven't done it. Done by ACE, the Korean injector from Revell - mixing Revell's Rafale M and B sprues. Or Hobby Boss 1/48th Rafale C kit ref.80318 V.P. Edited January 30, 2015 by Homebee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Hobby Boss 1/48th Rafale C kit ref.80318 V.P. Prototypes (or not up-to-date in service), or so I've been told Last time I looked the ACE kit wasn't available in the UK But it still surprising Revell haven't done it, it's worn anniversary schemes as well.

Truro Model Builder Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Of course, as Italeri do issue Kinetic models, it could be that both models are a joint production, with Italeri doing the IIIC and Kinetic the IIIE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie Hugo Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Funnily enough I would consider building at least 4 Mirage IIIC's vs 2 standard Mirage IIIE's. Of course with conversion kits I might add around 4 Mirage IIIE based variants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course with conversion kits I might add around 4 Mirage IIIE based variants Personally, if both a IIIE and a IIIC were available in 1/32 (and assuming both were to a comparable standard) I wouldn't bother at all with the 'C' but could see myself buying three or four 'Es'.....for no reason other than that there are far more attractive colour schemes for the latter. If the IIIS/RS were added to the equation, I'd need to have a serious chat with the bank manager - the sky would be the limit!

Couldn't agree more, I think Italeri missed a trick by going for the IIIC, but if its a joint venture, maybe they didn't have a choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirageiv Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I don't think this one is a joint venture with Italeri. It will be a different, more detailed tooling according to Kinetic. Hopefully (maybe detrimental to fit) they will do it like their 1/48 kits, so many options can be built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
