trickydicky210 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Looking through future releases at the Big H, I see that Academy have a 1/48 F-5E Tiger down for release at some point. Looking at Scalemates they have reboxed the AFV kit in the past, so presume this will be another reboxing rather than a new tool.

My guess is this is the Revell kit. It’s quite a nice model; not as detailed as the Zoukei Mura kit but much, much better than the PM Models kit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoscoeRedThree Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Just called Academy (ok my Korean wife did) and they said they will let me know tomorrow when she comes out. I am stoked as I am building the F4U-4 of a former WW2 pilot that went down of Korea and is still listed as missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmovik Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I wasn't expecting a Horten 229 from Academy. What are the chances of it being a rebox from the Revell kit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABeck Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 100%, as the Revell kit is kind of rebox what was made by ACE (Southkorea). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABeck Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 A6M2, F4F and P-51D in 48th. Academy takes up competition with Eduard. This makes sense in Asian markets where Eduard kits are most expensive, comparable to Asian kits here in Europe. World economic disintegration mirrors here. The Il-2 will be the AccMin kit? Wonderful boxart (Must Have)! The view is East, the road is "Unter den Linden". Reichstag would be to left on the edge of the catalogue. Directly right of Brandenburg Gate is Hotel Adlon. Where you see the 72nd F-14 is todays US-Embassy. In the area of the tailplane is the UK-Embassy on Wilhelmstraße which is perpendicular to Unter den Linden. On the left edge of the boxart on Pariser Platz we find the French-Embassy. (sorry, felt like giving this info would be helpfull). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
