phantomphan92 Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Have I missed something, just popped onto Hannants and noticed they have a Revell 1/144 AN-225 listed under future releases. Due November 2018 apparently. Anyone else heard about this, I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT_Man Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Thick part of £90. Cue the "won't pay more than £25 for a 1:144 kit" conversations to re-surface. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VMA131Marine Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Also noted on the Hannants list: 1/32 Extra EA330 kits in two different marking options; potentially new tool OV-10A and PBY-5A in 1/72; a 1/32 Lynx Mk.8; and a bunch of Eduard repops.

Radleigh Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Yeah, I will pay £90 for that.... bring it on. Won't pay £100 for a C-5 though 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phantomphan92 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 I got the C-5 for Christmas from the wife, found it for £75. Started it today actually, a lot of clean up needed for such a 'modern' and expensive kit, some of the moldings on smaller parts is questionable but dry fitting the main parts looks a decent fit (at this stage at least). I reckon with a bit of patience and work it'll finish off a nice kit. I mention all this because I can only imagine that a new Revell kit will be much crisper for around the same price, based on past kits of the 124 and c17 I'd guess it'll include and interior and opening doors as well. Compared to current prices for Roden kits and minicraft kc-135s etc, I think circa £80-90 ain't bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radleigh Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Sadly, Roden are like that...not all though... but I agree, £80-90 for a modern tool 1/144th An-225 (and some interior no doubt) is a fair price. But tbh, a subject I'd pay anything for..... really excited by this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caerbannog Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 At 90 GBP Revell surely includes a Buran as "payload". As long as Disney did not buy the Antonov Trademark ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cue the "won't pay more than £25 for a 1:144 kit" conversations to re-surface. Well, I'd hate to disappoint you then. I wouldn't pay more than £45-£50 for the Roden C-5 & I wouldn't pay any more than that for this kit or, any other 1/144 aeroplane. Guess I'll be going without!. My choice, my budget! Price "reduced" to £80.99 but, still way out of my league! Maybe next Crimbo if I speak VERY nicely to my partner and get her to put it on her list!!. I make no judgement as whether or not the price is fair or reasonable - that's very much down to the individual. For me personally, it is simply not affordable at the moment - no matter how much I might want it.

mungo1974 Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 May just have to get one if true.. Could give me the push to build the Revell AN-124 Ruslan kit that been sitting in the stash for years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't sure and the price seemed high for straight reissues. These are fairly ancient kits (late 60s) if they are the old Revell toolings.

JosephLalor Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I'm certainly interested. I just hope that I've changed jobs to one that actually pays me by the time it's released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomprobert Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 If you are happy to bide your time, you'll be able to get the An-225 much cheaper. Wonderland, for example, are often knocking out Revell kits at ridiculously low prices a year or so after release. I picked up the Revell DC-4 for £22 at Fairford - a kit with an original release price of £50. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can wait!!. Kind of hoping Revell reissue the AN-124 as well! Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homebee Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Reported to be a new tool kit - ref. 04958 http://www.kitreviewsonline.de/revell-neuheiten-2018/ V.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerbannog Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 For those looking for a Buran - the Sinsheim Museum has listed a cheap resin 1:144 Buran. It is not a kit but a display model which could be a good starting point at that price: https://shop.technik-museum.de/fertigmodell-buran-1-144.html René Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
