| heh, I was on Seoul in '99, stumbled into a little shop full of kits - they had a stack of Acad Su-27s, about USD$12 each IIRC. Bought three, all I could carry (on top of the mink blanket and all the other sh*t I picked up over there...) |

| I've got my eye on a Hasegawa kit at a local store but I'm wondering... if I wanted to do a 'Weasel' does someone have 1/23nd HARMs? etc. I haven't built in a while and usually do 1/48th. |

| Just so you guys know, the Academy 1/32 F-16 is not a certainty, still just a strong rumor. And it's for damn sure we won't see it this year, if there was one in the works. |

| Thanks h2 haven't built 1/32nd in a while but if I can do it all right it'd be nice to have a 'big' Shaw block 50, hmmmm you think the wife would buy the old modeler's excuse "But honey, it keeps me from hangin out down at the bar!" |

| Enanon, don't hold your breath on the Academy 1:32 F-16 kit, it could easily be a year or more away. |

| If the F-16 is like the F-18 it is worth while waiting. Already saving to buy it. |

| Chances are, it'll be better than the F-18. Academy really cut their teeth on that F-18, it's a superb kit, really giving the Big T a run for their money. |

Hi guys, that's my first post in this forum, I have the 1/32 Hasegawa's Falcon (F-16 A/C Plus), great kit, options to detail the gun inside the fuselage, metal parts, also I have the Hasegawa and Academy F/A-18 Hornets in 1/32 and...is no comparison, the F/A-18C from Academy is a really really superb kit, the only bad point with it (and with the Hasegawa's Hornet too  ) is that there is not refuelling probe open option, really a bad point in this scale but soon, Hawkeye Models from Australia, will release an set of refuel probe for the Hornet. 
Regards to all |
