Eduard Bf-109 in 1/72nd scale...

Recommended Posts

I sent a letter to the Help Desk at Eduard regarding my hopes for an Eduard Bf-109 in the Gentleman's Scale, 1/72nd.  This is the response!

So...2021 I hope.  It'll give me time to build all the AZ/KoPro kits I have in the stash!

 

Crossed fingers folks...

This is strange, they answered me a little differently.

Hello, we are going to release this kit at the end of this year or at the beginning of next year. Kind regards, Alena Čechová, Marketing Assistant

May be a change in their plan: pospone the 109 for having the Merlin Spitfire MkI/V in time for BoB celebration ? As for the 1/48 scale ... where they planned a new Spitfire MkI for August/September. It was a surprise and now you know the true.😉😆

Well this is a Rumourmonger forum.

Neither soon nor in 2021.

Wow!  What is this, the Spanish Inquisition?  😀

 

If I had known how much vitriol and controversy this post would have made I wouldn't have posted it!😉

 

God help me if I try to talk about PC-10!  Hahahahaha!

what's wrong with the Tamiya one

Absolutely Nothing other than cost they're great kits. However judging by Eduards 1/72 Fw.190’s prices, if they charged the same or similar. I could get two sets of over-trees and an A/M decal sheet in 1/72 for the cost of one Tamiya G6.

A year before they released the DVII in 1/72nd I wrote and asked them about it.  They flatly denied they would ever release the kit in 1/72nd.

If Eduard release their 1/72 bf.109 they will offer one thing that Tamiya don't offer: variety! 

Tamiya's G6 is a great kit but only allows to build a G6 of a certain production range. Eduard would likely offer several variants and subvariants and supply all those details that may have changed over time within the same variant.
