Thanks to Jean-Luc for spotting and editing this! I've obviously been looking in the wrong place all the time he was away...
Dear Customers,
It seems that some modelers-critics do not like our 1/72 scale Short Sunderland in preparation. We already received a bunch of criticism. Considering that the 3 web issued photos show only part of the original parts the criticism seem more than bold. I'd like to know how the critics can distinguish the mistakes when even I can merely distinguish Sunderland. Nothing doing, Sunderland master patterns were photographed before comments took part and moreover, not all parts were photographed already. So, if anyone feels like Sunderland is missing something, nothing happens so far.
Now for the recent July newsletter:


SH72200 F-82G Twin Mustang 1:72
When the North Korean tanks had crossed the border of South Korea in late June of 1950 it started Korean Conflict. The only US fighters capable of evacuation of US residents form Korea and subsequently marinating the Pusan perimeter were F-82G Twin Mustangs. The long range, all weather fighter didn't make it in World War II but it celebrated successes in the beginning of Korean Conflict. The first aerial victories were scored by F-82G. Except of the day and night missions F-82Gs were used for ground attack mission, particularly at night and successfully.
Twin Mustang kit contains four sprues with plastic parts, injected canopies, detailed resin and photo-etched parts. The decals included offer three overall black machines that fought in Korea. It features FQ-383 machine piloted by Lt. W. Hudson with Lt. C. Fraser as operator. This crew scored the first aerial victory over Korea.

SH72198 Nakajima Ki-115 Tsurugi 1:72
At the second half of the World War II Japan deployed suicide aircraft. Foremost, the usual types were used but due to the single mission termination it became thriftless. Therefore the development of single purpose types was ordered. One of the types was
Nakajima Ki-115 Tsurugi. When allies occupied Japan they seized readied production machines.
The kit contains one sprue with plastic parts, injected canopy and detailed resin parts. The decals included offer three production machines.

SH72199 Nakajima Ki-115 „Battle of Tokio 1946“ 1:72
This is a same kit as the previous SH72198 but now offered with “What If” camouflage.
The kit contains one sprue with plastic parts, injected canopy and detailed resin parts. The decals included offer one Japanese and two captured machines; one British and the other US.

SH72126 F2A-3 Buffalo “Battle of Midway” 1:72
This long version of Buffalo in 1/72 scale was sold out for a long time. Recently due to cooperastion with Sword (plastic parts supplier) we've been able to produce highly limited 600 pcs series of this kit.
The kit contains one sprue with plastic parts, injected canopy and detailed resin parts. The decals included offer four camouflages. Two machines participated during Battle of Midway. One of them is MF-15 piloted by capt. W.C. Humberd who shot down a Zero suring the latter clash and for this deed received Navy Cross. Other markings included are for Hawaiian Islands machine and USS Lexington based machine.
Due to the highly limited series rules - the sooner you order, the higher the chance we'll be able to fulfill your order.

SH48089 Heinkel He 51B-2 “Float Fighter” 1:48
Heinkel He 51 was one of the first fighter aircraft of the newly formed Luftwaffe. It was produced not only as land fighter but also as floatplane. Heinkel fighter floatplanes served with coastal fighter units within German Kriegsmarine.
The kit contains three sprues with plastic parts, injected windshield and detailed resin parts. The decals included offer two floatplanes. The first machine is 1/Kü.J.Gr 136 that sports black outlined number 12 and the other one is machine from 2/Kü.J.Gr 136 and sports five digit number-letter code.
