News from Special Hobby 04/2023

Dear Business Friends,    In this April Newsletter, we are happy to be bringing you another 1/72 F-84F release that besides offering Bundesluftwaffe schemes and decals also contains a metal fragment of the actual F-84F airframe that crashed on the Dyleň hill in Czechoslovakia in 1959. Our another new release is also an interesting one, the 1/72 Show Must Go On! AJS-37 Viggen with a colourful boxtop and striking scheme. The following two styrene model kits are re-releases, the F-84F SH72395 is already sold out completely and due to popular demand we have decided to offer it again and the Biber German Midget Submarine model kit had been out of production for quite a long time and so now is back on offer.       Our range of sets, both resin and 3D printed, gets very welcome addition this month in the  form of some more correction sets for Airfix’s 1/72 Typhoon model, nicely detailed MG15 machine guns sets in 1/32 and 1/72 and resin cast detail sets for the 1/48 TBF/TBM-3 Avenger and 1/72

The iconic MG 15 - bigger and smaller

Image
I bet we all will have remembered only too well the Battle of Britain film scenes taking place inside the German bomber planes cockpit. The gunners with their MG15 machine guns trying to hit the attacking Spitfires and Hurricanes. And now you can add very nicely made replicas of those MG15s to your models in the form of our 3D printed sets that come in 1/32 and 1/72 scales.

Box tops in the print

Image
In a very few days we can expect these boxes to come out of the print, they are for the 1/72 F-84F Luftwaffe, F-84F USAF, the 1/48 Hi-Tech SMB.2 and 1/72 Biber submarine kits. While the Luftwaffe F84F and the SMB.2 are new releases, the Biber has been out of production for a few year now and the F-84F USAF is a last autumn release that was sold out about a month back. For the popular demand, we decided to launch the second batch. The final picture at the bottom is the blister card to come with the tiny piece of metal from the actual Luftwaffe F-84F that crashed on the territory of Czechoslovakia in October 1959.
