The Airfix kit is quite nice...landing gear needs some help (I scratched new ones), but otherwise....well worth the few bucks!portman wrote:Figures... I only bought the NT Airfix kit last week.
I have one of these Eduard kits on the way as well!

Good morning, Manny! Hope you are well.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
Re: Dats Wat I'm Talkin !!!
Mine will arrive tomorrow and I will build it right away. No in-box review, no whining about box qualities, the typos in Eduard's historical info for markings, no waiting for resin or PE sets or a decal sheet, no BS. Because it's Eduard, I won't be delayed by having to fill a million ejector pin marks like kits from Tamiya, Hasegawa, or Academy. Just me, the kit, a beer, and Steve Vai on guitar.
I like this one:

Fw 190A-8 1/72 - Maj. Walter Dahl, Stab/JG 300, Jüterbog, Germany, December 1944

Build 'em, don't hoard 'em!

And I agree about what you wrote about about the whining, etc...In the ProfiPACKS EVERYTHING is included to build a kick-arse kit...
I saw an unpainted test-shot built up at the Nats this year and it looked like it fit very well...If they are half as good as their 110 series in 1/72nd we are in for a treat. Hopefully they will release more marks of the Wurger. And what about that cool box art!

I'm a big groupie of JG 5 'Eismeer' (Ice Sea) and their schemes, so I would really like to see you building the Blue 8.
Händel's ride with the chief head looks great too, though...

1) Dahl's
2) JG 5 "Ice Sea"
3) Handel's (Indian Head)
...maybe I'll do ALL three...
