WHY ... the Revell Kit is one of their best!!!! On paar with the beautiful Ju 52 ... I hope the Do 217 K (or maybe even N) Nightfighter will follow soon (not this year sadly) .. but it will come (just got a confirmation on last friday) gute Nacht Steffen

I have the Revell Do 217 in my stash (though I'm not likely to get round to building it for some time) I was under the impression it was a re-boxed hobbycraft but I take it that is not the case? I look forward to a CA Dornier. These important aircraft seem to be neglected in the quarter scale for some reason. H

That is one of the "worst insults" I have ever heard (beside it is a very different a/c) .. the Revell kit is top notch, even with todays standards ... even the pit is great. Draw it from your stash and have another look .. pleeeze o.k you do not have an open bomb bay or posable control surfaces .. but show me such on the Tamiya Me 262 or He 219 .... just to name a few I am also looking forward to the CA kits .. because of the subject .. I already fear to build it ... best wishes Steffen

Ha ha I'm sorry I'm obviously not as clued up as I should be. I was only looking in the box the other night and I am really looking forward to putting it together. Though I don't think I want to build it with the Missile. I'll have a look at aftermarket decals nearer the time. H

Hi Howard Well, unfortunately the AM companys totally neglected the Do 217 when it appeared. There is an Eduard set, a Hecker & Goros Crew (great!!!), some stuff from Andreas Duda (very, very hard to get) and one single decal set (Eagle Strike IIRC long oop) ... and then there are some Koster conversions If you find more, let me know .. I have 3 kits in the stash :-) :-) I haven't found a nice c&m for my missile a/c, so it is stll half built in the stash .. one will be the all blue(light blue) early E and then there is the big greenhouse conversion (for which I have nice markings too, but not the guts to start it ) best wishes Steffen

hey Guys, Good Grief! My 2007 resolution to "buy no more kits until I build down my stash" is crumbling into dust. First the Eduard 1/32nd 109E, now a new-tool 1/48th DO-17. Perhaps my resolution to lose a few pounds and excercise is a more realistic goal. Regards to all, Ed

Well if you walk to the hobby store, you can help with resolution No 2 whilst breaking No 1 Andy

Great news!, I always wanted one of those, I have an old one, do17 from hobbycraft I think. Not the greatest kit.
