Richard Alexander has sent us news that the most talked about kit this Christmas is all set to arrive at Wingnut Wings next week and will be shipped as quickly as possible to meet what looks set to be very high demand, along with a newly revealed "Duellists" 2-in-1 boxing with the Hansa-Brandenburg W.29. Take due note of WNW's holiday dates to avoid disappointment.

Hi Fred

Also interesting is that the W.29 has been listed as "sold out" as a stand-alone kit for some time. So, could these be sprues that were held back specially for the Duellists, or fresh production?

All the best

Most likely new production - there has continuous talk of re-releasing sold out kits as "special editions", so I guess the Duelist combo is special enough

I guess there is double edged sword of being Limited Edition - assures that modelers buy up your stock for the stashes quickly, the flipside is that hoarding and dumping OOP kits becomes a legitimate business... Like W.29's get scalped for $250 and this bundle will make sure that some of that money gets funneled to the WnW crew instead...

All those who are selling Hansas at redunkulous prices will be sad.
