Thanks!

im in line! cant wait to get a hold of a couple of these... If this is up to AFV clubs ususal standards then this could set some new expectations in the aircraft model world. Most modern jets are woefully behind the times in cockpit and landing gear bay details...with all the slide mold/ multimedia techonolgy out there, im expecting a great kit.

and I wonder if a F-5F isnt too far behind! better hurry and finish my rescribe monogram w/ black box pits build i started years ago!

andy...dusting off the several sets of F-5E decals

oh and it looks like from the box art it comes with LEX extentions. I wonder if it will also have the other option plus both styles of noses?

we can only hope!

yes, please!

Hi all

I am a bit disappointed that there are no sprue shots yet .. maybe the HLJ footage wil bring some of that. The boxart is already known since the Nuremberg Toy Fair this year ... and there was another announcment for a F-5E (IIRC Bronco, but I am not sure) ...

Hmm on a 2nd thought, didn't we have a post with a built up model here (i mentioned the not deflected control surfaces and someone responded this is fully correct this way .... damn Altzheimer (BTW what was his first name ... see, it already started )

all the best

Steffen

Indeed. I'm hoping.
