Zoukei-Mura have sent us test-shot photos of their amazingly detailed forthcoming kit of the He 219 Uhu.

It'll be interesting to see the Revell's offering. May be a joint-venture?

I doubt it. RoG is appealing to the mainstream modeler, while ZM is going after us rivet counters. The price differences are noteworthy, though interestingly, ZM is bringing out its new Mustang far below what it charged for its TA-152. Perhaps they're feeling the heat a bit?

Somewhere along the line the kit itself became the cheapest thing we ever buy. They must've noticed that.
