I fear is a matter of minutes before Trumpyboss anounces theirs...

Cheers!

Based on recent experience I won't care if they do. As long as Eduard/Special Hobby don't drop the ball!

If they sell well enough could we hope for a single seat Vampire????

Now let's jump to some bigger news. Check the photos above and below.

Yes, this is 1/48 Tempest developed in cooperation with MPM company. The latter will be issuing some of the version, while Eduard will produce other types of this nice aircraft.

Nevertheless, you shouldn't worry now, because it will be available in 2017 only. Nevertheless, detalization looks good even at the early stages of development.

I guess, both Czech companies will try to produce something outstanding in order to compete with other manufacturers

Detalization of the laniding gear looks quite impressive even now.

One more I need, I want, I must have. 2016 kit releases will seal the unglorious fate of my bank account! Didn't they also announce a Mustang?

That looks VERY tasty!

Have they said anything about a MkII?

 

They said they were doing a Mk.II as well, hopefully that's still the plan.
