It's time to create a BM bookmaker and bet there on the sweepstakes: - who will be first with Mirage III C in 2020 Modelsvit or Special Hobby? - who will be best with Mirage III C in 2020 Modelsvit or Special Hobby? - who will be more expensive / cheaper with Mirage III C in 2020 Modelsvit or Special Hobby? e.t.c. 😁😁😁 B.R Serge 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trenton guy Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 My money is on Modelsvit on all three counts, but I expect the SH effort to be a good kit, as well, and a little easier to get together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene K Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Any news on the release by either Modelvit or Special Hobby? I've about given up on Special Hobby, so looking forward to Modelsvit beating them to the punch. Gene K 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo the Magnificent Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Really hoping this one stays on schedule for release in November as it would be a prefect candidate for the Interceptor GB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EDCS87 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I hope they will have a future boxing with decals for the Argentine IIICJ in the desert scheme of the late 80s! I have been very impressed with Modelsvit latest offerings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had never bought a Modelsvit kit before until I picked up the recent Mirage IIIE. I was also very impressed. So much so that I have their forthcoming Mirage IIIB and IIIC on backorder at the Big H.

Enzo the Magnificent Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Looks like it will be a close run thing for this kit to be available in time for the Africa GB. I may have to use either a PJ Productions or an RV Aircraft kit. Building from The Stash of course. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeR Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Plastic look great, as to be expected, but the decal sheet seems to have the same problem as the IIIB kit (which I have). The blue for the Israeli and South African markings is too light. Mike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alt-92 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 The dark green on the CZ may assist in making it seem somewhat darker though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers / André Depends on what your screen shows - on my phone they look darker, on the PC, lighter. However the Mirage IIIB sheet I can Mk.1 eyeball and on that the IDF and SAAF markings are too light. Both blues should be darker and richer in tone than what Modelsvit provide. I have the 1/72 Isradecal Mirage IIIB/C decal sheet so for an Israeli aircraft I'm sorted but since I wanted to do the SAAF IIIB option the kit's "on hold" for the moment.
