@John Thompson : I noticed AMS have them in stock as of yesterday as well, but at 25€ you may get them cheaper elsewhere.

Thanks for that, alt-92. I actually got the La-9 a couple of months ago from an ebay seller in Russia. Yeah, definitely cheaper than AMS, especially without their eye-watering shipping charges. Cheers!

Thanks (I think!) - they're beautiful! Now I'm going to need one of each. I wonder if they include detailed painting instructions. That's sometimes the downfall of some of these very detailed cockpit sets - all that tiny detail which deserves to be done up in the right colours, but you're left guessing. I mean, in this case, it can't all be A-14!

I already have the Kompledt Zip cockpit kit for another kit. Wondering if that resin would fit. Also does anyone know how to pre-order or who might be carrying it?  Thank you. 

I made a quick check of my favourite shops and didn't see it, but the only one I've used which carries Aresin is models.ua; maybe it's so new it's not in stock yet. I haven't tried ordering direct from Aresin, if that's even an option.

That cockpit looks gorgeous! Just the think for my Ark La-9 which I bought as a birthday present to myself on August 4....and has been languishing in Italy for reasons unknown since August 21...

Mine took more than 3 months to arrive from mother Russia! 😂

Mine escaped Russia pretty quickly but I’m guessing there’s a hold up at the Italian end. Maybe I’ll get it for next year’s birthday? 🤣

 

Anyway, back to your regularly-scheduled thread.

 

Edit: never mind, it arrived in the country yesterday!

Good news, everyone!
