Okay...

 

First off, that box art is hideous.  I hope it's just a preliminary mark up and not what they're gonna use for the actual release.

 

And speaking of the actual release, why?  Isn't the market already flooded with FW-190F-8s?  Everyone from Airfix to Zvezda has kittings of the type.  So I wonder what Kora is bringing to the market with this release?  Especially as it's Eduard plastic.

Kora typically adds a bunch of their own resin to their reboxes.

While I could not make out a significant difference to the original kit from Eduard with KORA's Fw-190 A-8 series, they will now release an A-9/F-9 variant.

Pictures suggest there's the 14-blade fan included, and the "Hi Kit" version has some rockets as well:

Be advised these are total rip-offs, or at least the 190A-9 is. You get the plastic from the Eduard kit, a tiny photetch fan, and unpainted PE seatbelts. No mask, no colour PE, and the decals are not of great quality.
