Start with the K-4 (which is a complete different fuse/tail anyway). Reasons: - it's the final version of the bf-109 - saw operational use (Bodenplatte) - Every man and his dog already does G's - Erla's, G16AS and all those subvariants are essentially niche* *(oooh, daring! wait for the incoming flak) K4 I'd love, I'm rather attached to that variant due to the shher ammount of time I used it in War Thunder grinding for my first jet aircraft, building one or two in model form would be good 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first box announced to come out in February 2022 will be a three-pack - S.199 early, S.199 late and CS.199, with Czechoslovakian and Israeli schemes. Plus some resin extras, I guess. It seems to me that this may be the best purchase. Additionally, you will have a Czechoslovakian two-seater CS.199, which will be silver, so it will look different from the single-seater. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The twin cockpit sounds like it will stand out on a shelf. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Poultney Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Hmm interesting. I find it odd that they'd go for the S199 instead of a proper 109, surely there's more market for a proper 1/72 109G up to Eduard standards with as many variants as possible?

I find it odd that they'd go for the S199 instead of a proper 109 The Avia S.199 and CS.199 are based on the Bf 109G, but this is actually a separate production project. That is why it is released first, because the whole thing can be done faster, and in addition it is a model aimed mainly at the Czech market.

MiG-Mech Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Yes! Minimum 2 of those first Limited Edition kits for me. There are some nice painting schemes. Both Czech and Israeli. There are still 3 planes left worldwide in museums. I saw them all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfman Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Perhaps Special Hobby will do a series of 109’s to the same standard as their 109E, Just a thought. Wulfman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
