salomon Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I agree with you Sebastian, the GWH's Su-35 is really better than the KH's, I have both but I belive KH is updated their mold to produce the new SUkhoi familly with an actual standard.

DarrenH Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Cant wait to see the 27’s. The new boxing of the 35 with the ground attack weapons is fabulous. GWH are doing great stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless your ordering direct from a Far East retailer, maybe not, some of GWH previous releases have taken an age to reach these shores, December/January anyone? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Nice, like the dual air to ground pylons, not seen them before in a kit, I like the way windscreen is moulded too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does "Flanker family" include Su-37 That could easily be the kit of the year, but I do not think. I am not sure if the Su-37 could be sharing many moulds with the Su-27 so it would probably need a separate new set of tooling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
