UK importer (Hobby Company) has confirmed that things are getting through via Austria and are not subject to sanctions at the current time. However this could change, I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxbot Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Just in case, I remind you that the Yak-9D model was released in 1/48 scale from Modelsvit last year. The decal contains five variants. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Foxbot - will there be a Part II in 1/72, or only 1/48 because the decals are 50% bigger? I just received Part I from Hobby.dn.ua, and it looks great! I'd like to use some of the options from your decals on the 1/72 Yak-9D promised by Zvezda, but let's see if that kit ever reaches the west. I've still got 2 or 3 unbuilt Dakoplast ones... 1 hour ago, foxbot said: Just in case, I remind you that the Yak-9D model was released in 1/48 scale from Modelsvit last year. The decal contains five variants. It will be interesting to see a comparison between the Modelsvit and Zvezda kits. I'm even tempted by the ICM 1/32 Yak-9, just because it's a Yak-9!

John Kosachev Sergey (KSL) compared the two kits on scalemodels.ru two weeks ago, basically they are both good representations of the original with a slight nod to the Modelsvit due to uneven details on the Zvezda kit, similar to Su-25 kit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IT_Man Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Apparently (according to Models2U, where i have one on order) this one is with the UK Importer now, so you should start seeing them next week. Also they mentioned that there will soon be a new duty tax on imports with a Russian origin of 35%, so prices likely to go up on future shipments 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have the Zvezda kit, so I can't compare them myself. I have a feeling that the Zvezda would be an easier build, although the Zvezda kit is the Yak-9D, not the Yak-9T/DD/K/M that I really want; maybe Zvezda will release those versions later. Thanks in advance! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonlanceHR Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Modelsvit also has a newish (2020?) -9D with different parts breakdown compared to their earlier -9DD/T/K. That is what KSL compared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what KSL compared. That would make sense, I guess - apples to apples. Instead of Honey Crisps to Granny Smiths, like I was doing. I have the Modelsvit Yak-9D; I'll have a look at it. Thanks!
