Still trying to catch up with some stuff we lost on the old place I will now show you some pictures of the coming Horten Ho 229 kit. We have to thank Zoukei-mura for providing us with these pictures!

First ones show one of the first test shots assembled by Zoukei-mura:

We also got these send over from Kyoto. I for myself cannot wait to drool on all those magnificent details! The engines for example even show turbine blades!

There have been quite a few people asking if this kit will have the outer fuselage parts given in clear plastic. As a manufacturer that listens to his customers and friends there has been an invitation on the President´s Blog to write them if such clear parts would be desired.

With me and my wife having been invited to support Zoukei-mura on their booth during the Nuremberg Toy Fair 2014 in February we had the opportunity to admire this new kit as it was exhibited there. We also have been shown the sprues of one test shot. Please find our pictures taken on Zoukei-mura´s booth below:
