Does anybody have any news on Academy's new 1/48 F-22 Raptor,Greatmodels has it on pre-order it seems to be a quality kit.This would be good news, I have been waiting for one of these !!! But I am reluctant to preorder for $53.00 until I hear more about the kit.

The kit is obviously not out yet, so you will most probably not get a final eval now

What I've heard the kit looks (!) quite good. I posted some pix to the IPMS Deutschland site some days ago. ... also "advertized" here in the "General aircraft" section .... sometimes visiting the "Latest Posts" page is helpful

local link

cheers
