New 1/72 metal-wing Hurricane I from Arma Hobby -- Released!


Procopius

Recommended Posts

Playing with it this morning, it's hard to believe this is a company making their third kit. Fit appears to be really good, a little care around the wing roots as the location points are a little complicated, but it drops in well.

 

Construction method is very similar to the Airfix fabric wing kit, but I suspect works a little better

Just started my two kits and all I can say is that it is the little Hurricane that I have always been waiting for,......... what a beautiful job and thank you Arma Hobby,..... you have made me a very happy man,.........  the perfect Christmas Present! 

If you continue and release a Mk.IIb that would be the icing on the cake,................... I do hope that you get the sales that you deserve from this kit,

 

Cheers

Nice cherry on the top is our kit on the  Hannants bestsellers list.

Father Christmas delivered mine on Christmas Eve.  Happy days.  Three overtrees and, very generously, a full set of decals.  Thank you Arma Hobby.  It looks like a superb kit.

Should have had mine today but the post office want £1.50 extra postage before they will deliver. Anyone else had this problem?

 

Why do they want the money? Incorrect postage? Poland is in the EU so there should be no import charges either. Strange.

It's not just on the list, it's number one, a brilliant result Wojtek, well done. I'm going to go out on a limb here & state that  Mk. II and / or a Mk.IV to the same standard would probably get you to number one just as quickly. The extra trees were an excellent idea too.

Can you tell us what & when your next release will be?

cheers,

Just started a thread on that: 

 

 

The long and the short of it is no announcement until ready to release. I'm hoping (and betting) they do the Mustang III next year.

Panic over, the parcel is for my Polish neighbours. Card was put through my door so still waiting for my Hurricanes.  Sorry for the confusion

Please send me more details by PM, number of parcel and official reason of extra fee if known. It looks suspicious. Hopefully we can help.

How do I get these overtrees?

I understand that the overtrees had to be ordered in advance of the release of the kit, and that none remain.  I suspect you won't be the only one hoping I'm wrong.

Curses!

 

Thanks Graham.
