This is Eastern Express we're talking about so they will be expensive and not the easiest kits to build. If they were being produced by Revell or Zvezda this would be GREAT NEWS!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were talking about F-RSIN for a moment there. At least we may get a reasonably good injection moulded kit from EE. Chris. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

71chally Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Great release, love the Trident, but can't handle resin, this is the perfect answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinky coffeeboat Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 With only nine days left of 2018, I think they're being quite optimistic!! Still looks quite decent. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterblank Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 I see the triangular intake, cranked dihedral and well represented landing gear. Looks very promising! Best regards...Duncan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timski1 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Anyone know if they’ve been released? Wouldn’t mind one and a 1-11 they said they’re releasing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viscount806x Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 They'll be pricey though judging by the almost £50 for the forthcoming 1/144 Viscounts. A long way from the few bob for their ex Frog stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busnproplinerfan Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 The nose gear on the box art looks like it hammered an armored gerbil on the runway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Procopius Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I just bought two books on the Trident after seeing the one at Duxford, because I thought it was so beautiful. This is dangerous news for Edward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
71chally Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) CADs look great, looks like they've taken into account the mid span camber change issue that Airfix didn't back in the day Like VC-10, the Trident has some very subtle lines and features which if not depicted correctly could result in a bad looking kit. If these are nicely done I will buy multiples of them! Edited January 2, 2020 by 71chally 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please say "Yes"!!! 🤞 Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
