Hi guys hoping you can help me with an issue I have. I am looking to do some versions of the Tony in 1/32 scale, so far I have three versions of the Ki-61 I sorted I think

The OTSU version will be kit number 08212
The HEI version will be kit number 08078 / ST28
The TEI version wil be the kit ST28 with the ALLEY CAT conversion unless some one knows of another 1/32 scale TEI version done by Hasegawa.

Now the first version the KOU version to me would be kit number 08179 but it states it does both this version and the OTSU version am I correct. Now if i cant obtain this kit how much work would be needed to convert the kit number 08212 back to the KOU version as im sure the sprues would contain the appropriate parts to back date the kit.

Lastly are there any conversions out there for later versions of the Ki-61 apart from the ALLEY CAT versions. Thanks in advance guys
