Navy Bird Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Pardon if this is a repeat, but if I can believe this listing at Scalemates, the 1:72 ESCI F/RF-5A was re-boxed by Hobbytime Model Kits (who I've never heard of) in 2020. Maybe it might be available somewhere? https://www.scalemates.com/kits/hobbytime-model-kits-058-f-rf-5a-freedom-fighter--1306993 Cheers, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spruecutter96 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Unfortunately, the 1/32 NATO Pilots & Ground Crew set has been a "Coming Soon" attraction for something like 4 years now. I think the chances of Italeri actually bringing it out are pretty darned remote. It's a shame - if the price proved to be reasonable, I would have scooped up 3 or 4 sets. Cheers.

Great news, even if it is not happening on May is good to see they will release it. I can wait, I have 400 unbuilt kits already 😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IT_Man Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Cuban scheme looks nice, but reading up on it, Cuba only have the MiG-23 and not the 27? (Understand this is the Ex-Esci kit, which I recall hearing was a bit ropey?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Understand this is the Ex-Esci kit, which I recall hearing was a bit ropey?) the box art? actually shows a MiG-23BN.. which Cuba operated, (the intake splitter plate is the giveaway) it is called Mig-23BN / Mig 27D Flogger here: https://www.jadlamracingmodels.com/italeri-2817-mig-23bn-mig-27d-flogger-1-48-plastic-plane-model-kit/ more nice schemes: the ESCI/ Italeri kit usually has the required parts in the box, it will never look like a great MiG-23/27 (which version ever you wanna build!) anyways.... go for the much much better Trumpeter Flogger series.... (which also has serious issues...., that can be corrected with a CWS resin nose.... ) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just kidding, I have a soft spot for them. We even fitted a few with AIM-9 Juliets for TDY when the Leeuwarden units transitioned from the F-104 to the F-16. https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/6489585 https://www.the-northrop-f-5-enthusiast-page.info/Pictures/Netherlands/K-3056.jpg Cheers, Andre 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
