 Marcel Nový kindly shares with the readers these photos of his latest 1/72 Ryan PT-20 model. This kit was originally released under the MPM brand label, and recently re-issued as  VT72001  in the Vintage Treasure series, you can buy yours only on our e-show, www.specialhobby.eu. We have only some of them left now, so one definitely should not hesitate. THe kit offers decals and markings for two options, one as flown with the USAAF, the other one of the Australian RAAF. Marcel, however, has a long time passion for even more unusual subjects and various small air forces, so he simply had no other option than to chose some aftermarket decals and finished the Ryan in the colours of South African military. And what pleases us really, he found the build very easy and without any issues at all and went for yet one more Ryan straightaway. Now he says he might go for a Dutch one. Very much to keep looking forward to, indeed.

 The 72nd scale PT-20  model shown in today 's  photos was, and very finely too, built by Jan Simon from our  VT72001   PT-20/STM-2 kit. This boxing contains real vintage treasure in the form of the styrene parts that had been produced waaay back in the 1990s and by 1996 were completely sold out. Well to say the truth, almost completely, as we found a few of them hidden, almost buried in the darkest corners of our warehouse. So what else should have we done with them than to offer them in the apptly named Vintage Treasure line. The decals are new, both designed and printed and cover one USAAF scheme plus another one as flown by the RAAF although being ex-Dutch machine. And as really only very limited quantity is available, these kitsets can be get only via our eshop. Be sure they will last only very shortly..
