71chally Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) Thanks Julien. Â Edit, it looks a really good way to get a cheap kit, does look like the Mi-24 is out of stock though. Edited October 6, 2021 by 71chally 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerbannog Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Sorry for the inconvenience - I ordered the Hind overtrees and they will be delivered tomorrow, but I cannot find them on the Eduard website anymore today. So they seem to be sold out already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exdraken Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Got my Hind D yesterday, I really like what they did! The D specific targeting equippment is 3D printed by the way I assume, the anti tank missiles etc cast resin. Decals and schemes look fantastic! Â I really do hope that a translation into English will be provided soon for the excellent reference book though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be that expensive, no? but as the text is not online, it is hard to put into e.g.  google translate  I ams till hoping though!  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Was it my imagination or did Eduard announce a raised rivet decal set for the Hind to be released in May? Can't find the info about it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Thanks to both, finally found it on the Hannants site, bit of a difference between the price on the Eduard (£39) site and that on Hannants (£56). I'm certainly not against paying a cost for them provided they are easy to use and effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a guess, I'd say they might be by HGW, they seem to have do e Eduard stuff before (ie direct copies of decal sheets, but with peel off film) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm not saying it was the product that was at fault may well have been my error. I'll wait to see a review or hear about someone else's experience before I part with that sort of money for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bozothenutter Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 (edited) König has pictures up of the set, looks very comprehensive (stiffeners, etc).

ABeck Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 got mine for € 55.- from mn-modelar (now 65 on their hp), maybe SBS, HAT or other AM labels will offer their own variants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerbannog Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 IIRC Arma in Russia were first to release a rivet decal for the Hind. I do not recall the asking price but bet this was way lower than what Eduard is asking. I really hope someone else will jump the train and the prices for rivet decals will come down a bit (though not very lilekly as all prices seem to take the other way...). That said Archer rivet decals for a Fw190 in 1:32 are about 90 USD - so the question is if 65 Euro for the Eduard decals is already a reasonable price and I have to find another soloution instead of waiting for a better offer.

salomon Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 € 63.95 is not reasonable, I bought this one year ago and it's much more cheaper.  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zagor Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 I wonder what is justification for such a price? What makes a cost of such product? Research, human labor, material and technology used. I can't imagine that first 3 factors would make such huge cost in case of rivet decals. So either Eduard bought some super-duper expensive new 3D printing machine for Eduard rivets line that has to be paid off quickly, or it is greed. Whatever reason is... 20-25 Euro is max that I'm prepared to pay for rows of small dots. Above that, "Rosie the riveter" and steady hand will have to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
