Has anyone seen the new (reboxing) of the Academy 1/35 Blackhawk? I just ran across it on eBay. It appears to be a ROK (S. Koeran) Army UH-60P. It looks as though it is their standard UH-60A kit with ROK decals. Can anyone confirm this, or tell what (if any) new parts are in the box?

Yeah I also saw it about a week ago and searched for it. All I was able to find was this site here, it shows sprues shot but wont open up.

UH-60P

Hi Joe, it opened for me. It looks like the standard UH-60A kit with added ROK decals (below). That would make sense. I found an article on the ROK UH-60P. The only difference is radios and a few other internal features that the ROK wanted for their birds. Other than that, it is the same as a US Army UH-60A.
