yeah.. just how will it be. I have been waiting decades for an affordable accurate injected 1/72 Thumper. I was so happy when news of the VC10 from Mach 2 was released but when I saw that totally weird looking nose.. nah I passed on it. I dont care if the windows are misaligned etc etc the usual faults just so long as the outline and shape of the model is right, I have fingers crossed but ready for disappointment. An Fokker Fellowship in this scale would be great

Hannants have now announced prices: A$125 + GST + postage (oof ! :shock: )

At least if you backorder, the 10% discount will negate the tax, I suppose... :P

Rewind 23 years and people were probably asking the same question about the KMC kit that was about to be released.

Let’s hope the reaction to this kit is not the same - but then again it’s Mach 2 so will be no surprise if it makes the KMC kit look fabulous.

1534 grams x $ 83.38 = $ 127 904.92

Damn two would pay off the House but I’ve only got one!
