davidsm 4 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Hello just wondering as to which kits are best in both 1/72 and 1/48? Preferably Longbow ones. Just fancy a bit of a change as i've not build that many helicopters. cheers David Link to post Share on other sites
Andy K 60 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I'd have to say Hasegawa for both scales although you might have to sell a kidney to afford one these days Link to post Share on other sites
hatchet 5 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 In 72nd there isn't a proper Longbow available. Those that are available are either As with a radar or the prototype. Both need a lot of work to become a D. For A-models, Hasegawa is probably best, but Academy isn't far behind - and Acad's Hellfire-launchers look better'n Hase's Link to post Share on other sites
davidsm 4 Posted January 11, 2011 Author Share Posted January 11, 2011 is this one no good then? http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/RV4420 David Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Fleming 2,269 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 is this one no good then? http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/RV4420David It's OK - it;s the older Monogram kit with an additional sprue for the WAH-64 bits. A decent, accurate AH-64D in 1/72 is long overdue (Italeri is probably the best in terms of accuracy) Link to post Share on other sites
4scourge7 262 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) Second the Italeri Longbow for 72nd, but it`s still a ways off. Here`s some of the alterations needed on the way to a WAH-64D Apache. HTH Cheers, Ian Edited January 11, 2011 by ian buick Link to post Share on other sites
