petarvu Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 If it is in 1/48 it will be breakthrough in detailing if they can produce all details from CAD through moulds to plastic. There is photo of Huey there too ?! P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinky coffeeboat Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 If true, then excellent news indeed... can we also have a Rafale please.. pretty please! Good news about the M2000 but I really don't think there's any great need for a new Rafale as the Revell kit is very good indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azzaob Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) Good news about the M2000 but I really don't think there's any great need for a new Rafale as the Revell kit is very good indeed. Agree about the quality of the Revell Rafale kit, be good to another two-seater out though, as at least I, have found the B quite difficult to track down in comparison with the M, perhaps one with the latest upgrades? Good news regardless with the Mirage Edited January 14, 2016 by azzaob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky coffeeboat Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Is the Hobby Boss 2 seater difficult to find? I know this is "influenced" by the Revell kit (but you could argue that since its a model of a Rafale then it will be very similar to the Revell kit...just saying case any legal people take exception to my comment). I don't think the HB kit is modernised in the same way that Revell have updated theirs but a little bit of self help (ie modelling) could update the HB kit.

Jeff try to track down a Revell kit... if you happen to get an early one (without updates) there is a Wolfpack-D resin update set...

pinky coffeeboat Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) The engine looks quite nice. My earlier post about the Hobby Boss Rafale was not a request for one, I bought over a dozen of the Revell and HB models years ago when my main interest was everything French. I still admire the Dassault delta family (look at my avatar) and will follow the development of this kit.

Phantom726 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 If Mr. Song's wording ("finish") is anything to go by, this will no doubt be the first Mirage 2000-ish in any scale!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark 64 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I hope we don't wait too long for this one...I want I want. How about that Super Etendard in 1/32 as well while we are at it... F1 would be good too btw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V.P. nice but error littered box art..... and the saga continues..... at least this paint scheme exists.... http://bdd.deltareflex.com/cns_affiche.php?image=5362 http://www.planes.cz/en/photo/1124019/mirage-2000-5f-118-ax-77-french-air-force-ctm-kleine-brogel-ebbl some more of this plane if the artists wants some more input.... https://hiveminer.com/Tags/118ax/Interesting I guess they originally painted a C model and later changed it to the -5.... also the Magic II missiles are not really appropriate for this paint scheme .... I hope that the decals will include both sqaudron (CEAM) markings, as they are different on port and starboard .... and not that green .... if the kit is good, I will jump to 1/32 for once.... (and maybe be Italeri IIIC/ E models.....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
