What's really good is when someone comes creeping back later to purchase at your price as all the cheap ones have gone. As Eduard presumably use a Czech based account the exchange rate could be quite different to the current rate in the UK. Also look at the movement between the two last October/November HERE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sturmovik Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) Since I read the original link was dead, I decided to convert the December leaflet I had downloaded into a link (first time doing this). The words are small but readable. If you don´t want to open it, it basically states the Tempest V Series 2 will be released on February 2019, and it also advertises three new kits and several aftermarket sets. I hope you find this useful. https://www.pdf.investintech.com/preview-frames.php?id=WGMxUkVjRVMxVTZqTTBFZ25yOFhwbEY0SWZDNmlCbERtZE1xVGRSWkdlZWZxVUJjWlNPeUFpSml5UlRUR05UOHl0ZGNxVzZTQlU5N0tsdWZ3eERDdExscmFjb1p4eEU0QkI0dkRoVitlZDhyVzZycWVET2VDR3FOdEQyTFIwWXA= Edited November 10, 2018 by Sturmovik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbolt Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 So when it comes to the Weekend boxing, I guess they will have to include PE for the fishplates? When I heard the fishplates were in PE, I thought maybe they would be on a small separate fret so it could be in the Weekend boxing, but all the PE is on one fret.

When I heard the fishplates were in PE, I thought maybe they would be on a small separate fret so it could be in the Weekend boxing, but all the PE is on one fret. the fishplates were only on the early series 1 planes, so they might just pick markings for a weekend boxing that doesn't need them. Quote The first 50 Tempest Vs (presumably JN729 to JN773 and JN792-796) were built using the centre-sections from a cancelled Typhoon contract. This is the box-like structure, made from steel tubes, that sits between the wings. The Typhoon centre-section was very similar to the Tempest version but because of the latter’s slimmer wings, the wing root fairing would not quite fit over the Typhoon version. This resulted in a small blister over the offending structure which is evident in photos, often with much of the paint rubbed off by fitters’ feet. One can be clearly seen in the photo of JF-L or J (which may be JN768). I rather suspected that this feature might have been associated with the ‘fishplates’ discussed in the above posts. However I was a bit surprised that when I examined relevant photos closely and the fishplates were evident well beyond the first 50 Tempests, almost to the end of the JN-series. Latest airframe identified so far is JN862 (85th). First confirmed without the plates is JN875 (98th). The longer-barrelled cannon (Hispano Mk II) was replaced much earlier than sometimes claimed – some sources indicate all the JN series were Series 1 with the long cannon. The latest airframe I’ve been able to identify with the protruding cannon is JN767 (39th). There is a photo of JN801 (55th) in full stripes at Newchurch in late June/early July 1944, which is the earliest found with the short-barrelled Hispano Mk V. Some sources state that the shorter cannon was retrofitted to some of the earlier airframes but I have not found any evidence to support this. see here for more on series 1 planes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it gives me an excuse to shell out for the Profipack I guess 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colin Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 It's the same plastic so I doubt it will have changed, they'll just bring a Brassin replacement out I would expect Hope the Mirage is better moulded than the last one I had, lot of clean up on the small parts where the mould seemed out of alignment when the plastic was injected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmovik Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) I was hoping to see the Lorraine Cross on Clostermann's Tempest. I'll still buy it though, because it's one of my "must have" aircraft. Edited December 16, 2018 by Sturmovik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I received the kit on Friday here in Germany. That's one thing I like about Eduard, no too long wiating period. My version 2 Tempest must be from the very first ones coming from this mold...the parts are greasy to say the least! Almost like the floor in a French Fries place... No worries though, a bath in Drano with resolve this issue. Now Eduard hurry up with the Tempest II. cheers Uwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
