Berkut Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 (edited) I bet it is the famous Kopro kit.... Not that it is bad. But still, this is very surprising, and damn, please let it be good! PS: Can you guys imagine the look on Ray's face? ^_^ Edited September 2, 2009 by Berkut Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kevan Vogler Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I wonder if this is what became of the new tooled Floggers that were supposedly coming from Kopro? Was it not Kopro that was showing off new tooled 1/72 Floggers at the Neuremburg toy fair earlier in the year or some similar event? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 wOOt, exactly the right scale. AMEN, BROTHER!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, guess what, the model showed at the show was just a rescribed Academy kit. Yeah. Here is the famous Kopro MiG-23 thread, full og ups and downs... http://www.arcforums.com/forums/air/index....72&hl=kopro Sadly the sprue shot linky doesn't work anymore. So, you can't see if the kopro kit was supposed to be of two sprues. I remember it had nice panellines. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Berkut Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Well, the word on the street from a czech source says that KP will do the BN, while this kit is a new one, not related to the KP kit. Well, we will have to wait and see. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
janman Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Well, the word on the street from a czech source says that KP will do the BN, while this kit is a new one, not related to the KP kit. Well, we will have to wait and see. This gets interesting. It's kinda surprising that out of the blue we have a new manufacturer who's going to offer a full range of Flogger kits. Considering the costs of creating an injection molded kit and the fact that this seems to be a fairly small enterprise, I'm a bit suspicious. Are we possibly talking about a Streem Fencer type short-run kit..? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JeskiM Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 ....with Streem quality of detail would be a dream come through ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mizar Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 There will be good 1/72 Fitters after them? Luigi Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Laurent Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Since there's the Valom An-2 on the plastic_kits page, perhaps they outsourced the tooling to Valom providing them the reference (material of the book) ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Laurent Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 There will be good 1/72 Fitters after them? ... or good Su-25s... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
janman Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 ....with Streem quality of detail would be a dream come through ! Sure would! There will be good 1/72 Fitters after them? Luigi One can only hope. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ijozic Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 WRONG SCALE... I concur. At least there are some half-decent 1/72 kits, unlike in 1/48. And MiG-23 is not a big airplane so in 1/72 it's a bit small for me. Hopefully that Trumpeter kit will eventually get produced and be decent for a change (i.e. not requiring to spend amount equal to kit's price on resin, too, just to get it to have a proper canopy and nose; not to mention cockpit and exhausts). And where's that Su-24?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bad edd Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 The new Floggers appeared as preorder on Modelimex @ 26.5 Eu. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MoFo Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 (edited) PS: Can you guys imagine the look on Ray's face? Streem kind of detail with Revell calibre tooling would be a dream. Heck, Revell detail with Revell calibre tooling would be a dream. Still... waiting for more info before I get excited. I have a sneaking suspicion this will end up being a massive disappointment in one way or another. Edited September 2, 2009 by MoFo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Berkut Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Still... waiting for more info before I get excited. I have a sneaking suspicion this will end up being a massive disappointment in one way or another. I have that to...I just didn't want to say it, because now that would be party pooper. :D Again, from czech source: Apparently his (R.V.Resin) drawings have gotten some critique...Atleast the S-199 (czech produced Me-109) and Gripen. There is even an error where side view did not correspond with top view. That is quite bad if you ask me. I am saying all this because you would think the kit will be based on those drawings, which looks nice, but may be inaccurate. Flogger people, take a look here and judge for youselfs: http://www.rvresin.com/MiG-23_Flogger_72.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
