gioca Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) In somewhere on web I've read about the Mig15 by SMER due in 2020 as an Eduard rebox ? Any confirmation ? Currently SMER is shipping 4 new MiG15 boxes to the shops at a really competitive price, if it is the Eduard kit. thank you.

John Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Some of the Smer boxart looks a lot like the KP boxart. I'd assume KP unless I found out otherwise. J 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gioca Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 in the past SMER reboxed some Eduard WWI kits: Fokker DR1 and Fokker EIII for instance, I think some Albratross also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Hothersall Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 That box art looks like an image one of the various KP incarnations have used in the past. I think it will be the old tool KP kit in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwaters81tfw Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 SMER reboxed the KP Fitter as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Thompson Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 FWIW, Modelimex has four Smer boxings, at least one of which is listed as a MiG-15bis. KP never did a -bis, although it wouldn't be the first time a manufacturer played fast and loose with somewhat obscure designations. My money is on Eduard as the original source of the Smer kits; unfortunately, Modelimex doesn't show sprue images to confirm this. John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confirmed (if we can call it this way) by Scalemates - reboxed old KP/Kopro/Mastercraft from 1979. Still with the Mystere-like vertical fin...

John Thompson Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Huh - I'll be darned - I was wrong! Well, if Scalemates is correct, that's good to know - I had one or two other items from Modelimex in mind, and I was going to include a Smer MiG-15 in the order as "research" into the kit's origins. Now I can save my money. Thanks, Michael! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
