MBK Nurember report.......Enjoy

Thanks for the video links David.

Considering the huge range of kits made today, many of subjects or scales or amount of detail that we could only dream about a few years ago, between us we seem to do an awful lot of moaning about what isn't available!

I know and they command stupid prices too. I have the old Revell kit which can be built up into a great kit if you throw some AM at it. It would be nice to have a new choice

I’m not a Bf 110 expert, so I have to ask: what makes a G-4 so different from other G-variants that you can’t modify a kit of one of those?

The G4 kit is a nightfighter that has the radar probes (known as stags antlers) on the front and also can have the upward firing cannons.

OK, yes, that would be somewhat difficult to make. Not impossible, but definitely easier with proper kit parts

On the Trumpeter/HobbyBoss Facebook page - test assembly of their 'Pantsir'
Like the detail brush in the background!

And two teasers........ the first is a BMD-4, I think
And the second................
No idea - anyone? :thinking:

Hi Dave...that last one is an unusual variant of a ural 4320...the zvezda v (no connection to THE zvezda i think)...
This Link shows a bit more,,if it works....cheers Marty

[Guest]

the zvezda v (no connection to THE zvezda i think)...

“Zvezda” (звезда) is simply Russian for “star”, so you can encounter it as a name in all sorts of contexts.

On the Meng Facebook page..........................quirky

And back to more conventional things:
And now - a sense of deja vu?
First, we had Tiger Models, then we had Trumpeter - now Meng!

I can't help feeling dismayed about this - 3 makers producing what is going to be a high range model - it looks good ( all 3 do ), but it's a bit obscure.
It will be interesting to see how the prices stack up!
