  • Homebee changed the title to 1/72 - Curtiss SC-1 Seahawk by Kovozávody Prostějov (KP) - reissue - box art+schemes - release in December 2022

It's the first Antares and after Antares for longer time SMER kit reboxed with new decals. Smer has still the subject on catalogue available, usually Smer edition costs 1/3 of the AZ/KP one ... as for Potez 540 edited by AZ, the Smer edition was cheaper by far ... of course, if you are interested in KP/AZ decal versions it's another story.

Smer website does not have an online shop so depending on what stores order, you may run into one. So far, none of the haunts I frequently use has this in their books. 

And while I like several Smer kits, they are mostly older 1960s/70s toolings.

Therefore I welcome a new(ish) one.

IMHO we need to wait for some actual KP kit pictures to make a decision on this regard.  BTW KP/AZ has waaaaaaaay better decals than Smer.  Love Smer kits, I have at least 3, but sometimes decals are not as good as KP/AZ.

for instance, just one of the first reserach on some online shops in czech, I checked czech shop just because Smer is a czech firm :

Hi people. Does anyone know where I can buy this e-book? Mail to Ukraine now delivers very problematic.😔

I'm afraid this series is not published in digital format. I know there are pdfs circulating but that is another matter.

Maybe somebody knows better...
