Eduard have a number of exciting new releases for June.

The follow up to their superb Avia B.534 III série comes in the shape of the IV série with an enclosed cockpit.

Meanwhile, fans of classic jets have a Weekend Edition of the Mirage IIIC RF to look forward to and Eduard are bound to make a lot of friends with the release of a new set of 1/48 scale figures - WW2 RAF Pilots (judging from the box-art, we may be able to look forward to some ground-crew too...).

Hi Rowan! Very Nice news! These RAF figures will be perfect for my Dispersal Pen Diorama Jean-Luc

Hi fellow eduardomaniacs @ Rowan/Andy: thanks for the update .. I just bought a Profipack Mirage for 28 euro a few weeks ago, so the WE price is not that cheap .. @Jean-Luc: do not forget to use the ranks and medals, that were issued recently BTW in the past the Eduard crowd was inferior to other producers (e.g. ICM ... especially the WW2 Germans were very poor) .. hope they got better meanwhile. I also hope Eduard will issue a full set of Bicycles one day ... I must get the Japanese set for that item alone greetz Steffen

Hi Schtefeun! You are right, the ICM figures are the best ones... so far. I just assembled some for my dio and they do look great. I also hope Eduard will improve with their new sets. But even if it's not the case it's always nice to have some diversity. It's funny you mentioned the Bicycle. I've just finished to build Flightpath's photo etched cycle kit... It's the "women" version. There are three more "men" cycles in the set which differs only by the shape of the main frame. It's not a kit for modelers with "Wurstfinger" I needed more time to do the cycle than the Accurate Armor resin Tilly Truck! The only thing I don't like about the cycle is that some parts are too flat (saddle, handlebar, frame etc...) but I will try to add some volume to it with white glue. A review of the Cycle Set can be found here Jean-Luc

Hi Jean-Luc I do not mean an etched bicycle kit. The Jap. pilots kit included a IM bike with etched spokes. Your little bike looks good, but I think I am too ham-fisted to get something that delicate done - and you talk about "Wurstfinger" my skinny friend .. have a nice "Herrentag" (in case such thing is known over at your place) Steffen

Hi Steffen! Yes I understood you were talking of the cycle in Eduard's Japanes set (review here). I just posted this for comparison. "Herrentag"? What's that? Jean-Luc

Hi Jean-Luc Yes, I would like to have such a bicycle set with 4-5 bikes and 2-3 european civilians standing/walking and another 1-2 biking ... Now we are going waaaay As for Herrentag or Vatertag have a look here: Wiki: Christi Himmelfahrt scrol down and you find Wiki: Vatertag and here you needto read the Herrentags paragraph (especially: "...die Jugend sich zu Fuß oder mit dem Fahrrad auf den Weg zu bekannten Ausflugszielen macht, um dort den freien Tag mit viel Alkohol zu verbringen. Die Touren beginnen bereits am Vormittag mit dem Konsum von Alkohol und enden zum Teil erst spät in der Nacht.") ... good I do not drink, so I get a full day for a website update and a little modelling too. until      Steffen

Hi again Steffen! Ok, thanks, now I understand. Once you have finished your cycle ride, you can have a nice picknick with those Minimali items... Wurst, Salami, Lyoner Fleischwurst, Brot, Käse, Gemüse uzw... alles ist vorhanden, sogar Wein und Bier! And if you drank too much, you can then use this... I will review them in the next couple of days... Jean-Luc

Cool stuff Jean-Luc! I especially like the outhouse. Looking forward to the review!! What is the price of those sets? best wishes Steffen

I have a photo image of the Jasta 34b commander after he ran his Alb. D.III into an outhouse. Seriously.
