That nose (bow?) section is simply crying out for a big 🦈 mouth......! 😉😊 John. Ever since @Procopius alerted us to the Molar Marauder I've wondered where those teeth would look good. I think you've just found the perfect place. I'm really glad to see some off-beat subjects getting lurve for a change. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HMSLion Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Damn. I'll need to buy at least two of these monsters. One for me...the other probably for the U.S. Naval Test Pilot School. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
71chally Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 This looks a superb kit, I really hope it's a great seller for Takom, and maybe they will consider kitting the KM, though I'm guessing good data and drawings are hard to come by for that one.

Violet Club Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 I will buy it when available ! I hope that the KM "Caspian Sea Monster" will follow at the same scale (it is a bit larger than the Lun) ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KM, Lun and 14M1p are Anigrand resin kit, A-90 is corrected Revell kit - the Revell Tu-95 Bear is there for size comparison....

Skymonster Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 It’s frustrating to see built examples - anyone have any idea when this is likely to land at UK retailers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwaters81tfw Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 It will arrive when it does. With the current global shipping disruption, and jacked up freight rates, I would be surprised to see it hitting our shores before 2022. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rui Silva Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Hi all, My Lun arrived today from Ammo (Spain) and the kit is BIG, it will take a lot of shelf space for an 1/144 scale kit. Meanwhile my workmate Sérgio Cabral is working on his series of 3D-printed "Fofiplanes" and the Lun is the next victim of disfiguration, including a bloated "Moskit" missile! 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bentwaters81tfw Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) My LUN has arrived. Most impressed. Paint guide is for AMMO paints only. I like that egg plane as well, I'd like to know more about that. Edited January 8, 2022 by bentwaters81tfw Updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scooby Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 My local shop got a case of these in, all but one were gone in a single day (20 kit box case). They say they weren’t expecting this, but they also don’t usually order in 20 identical kits without some idea of sales. The had another kit like this sell quick too, the 1/48 HK Lancaster. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
