DAVE V Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Hi Everyone, well after a long time away from modelling, approx 2yrs, im now back and after some probs with my pasword im now on the forum. My qestion is , i want to build both the Mig29 and the SU27, haveing looked at the avaliable ones in 1/72 these seem to offer a good buy, has anyone built any of these kits and if so how good are they, im certainly up for aftermarket bits if required, but not major kitbashing. Any help would be much appreciated. Many Thanks Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeew Posted January 17, 2010 Share Posted January 17, 2010 Can't vouch for the Su's but the Mig-29 is a superb kit, might need some detailing up in the 'pit but otherwise its great. Just don't try and use the ICM decals, by and large they're rubbish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pigsty Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 See here for two rather different reviews of the ICM Flanker: http://www.armorama.com/modules.php?op=mod...ent&id=4834 http://www.armorama.com/modules.php?op=mod...ent&id=4811 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasatka Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 (edited) ICM Su-27 out of the box is the most inaccurate kit. It's a joke This kit became an object for various petitions and open letters to ICM especially after their advertising the kit as the most accurate prior release. The management of ICM was even forced to apologize for the model. Just have a look on what NeOmega offers to correct the ICM kit. And you will understand what the problems are. Cheers Edited January 18, 2010 by Kasatka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVE V Posted January 18, 2010 Author Share Posted January 18, 2010 Many thanks guys for all the info, i think i will stick with the Mig 29, and hope that the proposed Trumpeter SU 27, produces the goods, but im not hopeful. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
