News from Special Hobby 06/2022
Dear customers, In the June edition of Special Hobby newsletter we are bringing you one quarterscale model plus three in 1/72 scale. The former one is the re-release of the AF-3S Guardian, the three latter ones then the very much sought after two-place Mirage F.1B, the quite unorhodox-looking Swedish SAAB J-21 fighter and a brand new release of the night Stuka variety, the Ju 87 D-5N. In the previous newsletter, we mentioned that the 1/48 L-4 Grasshopper would be released in June. We are very sorry but you will have to be patient a tiny bit more, this model has been re-scheduled to the month of July. We mentioned a few minor issues needed some fixing, and they still do. Among the many resin cast or 3D-printed sets or models we release each month, you can find now excellent accessory for the already mentioned Stuka, the pilot’s seat and MG81 rear twin machine gun are made by direct 3D print. Printed weapons can be also found in the excellent set portraying a contemporary Unkraini
I have the airfix 1/72 and the Trumpeter (?) 1/48, so really looking forward to the release of your 1/32. I don't usually do 1/32 as they are too big for my space, but this is definitely one in which I will break tradition for. Thanks for modeling it.
ReplyDeleteI'm very much looking forward to this release of yours, I've build a few of yours in recent years including the excellent 1/32 scale Tempest kits, but I have always had a soft spot for the Whirlwind. It really had the look, unfortunately the engines weren't really good and powerful enough or it could have been a really useful weapon in the defence of the UK by the RAF.
