senng them would be consistent with pho-
tographic evidence. And if anyone has other
ideas, they are always free to puy up the
panel lines as well. Other items of discussion
might be the canopy, propeller, weapons and
other alternave parts . There will be three
canopies included in the kit. The same goes
for the propeller, and radio equipment vari
-
aons. An interesng item is the dust cover
within the tailwheel well. These were alwa
-
ys a lile dierent from aircra to aircra
and I am leaning towards leaving these out
completely, and adding these at the modeler
level should pose no issues for anyone. The
kit includes items for the Mustang Mk.IV, and
we also have ready the recce version which
has its own fuselage. These sub-variants will
be released through the course of next year
outside of being included in a Royal Class pac
-
kage. Weapons will be concentrated on one
theme related sprue that will include drop
tanks, bombs, rockets and bazooka tubes,
among other payload hardware. The marking
opons selecon process is sll ongoing but
will be consistent with our past paerns, me
-
aning that there will be a nice mix of famous
and not so famous aircra. Naturally we will
release a slew of aermarket accessories for
it, in brass and especially within the Brassin
line, including things such as the engine and
its installaon. Sets will cover details such
as wheels with detail dierences, exhausts,
bronze landing gear struts, the aforemeno
-
ned engine, the cockpit, and the collecons
of these in the BigSin line.
The Mustang is an item promong a wide
range of themes. Aer the inaugural Pro
-
PACK releases, there will be Limited Edion
releases that will be theme related, such as
we have done with the iconic Bf 109. We’ll
start o with the Mighty Eight, and that will
be something! And with that, we get on the
topic of Limited Edion releases.
As we speak, this years rst Limited Edi
-
on kit is being made available, called ‘Boden-
plae’. You can get a comprehensive glimpse
into its contents elsewhere is this issue of our
Newsleer, and we’ve already touched on
the Bf 109G-14/AS that is included within it.
Other contents include the classic Bf 109G-
14 and the Fw 190D-9. Bodenplae is an in
-
teresng theme and it can’t be ruled out that
other incarnaons of it will surface in the fo
-
llowing years. On the topic of Limited Edion
kits that are put together from our own re
-
sources, March will see the 1:72nd scale item
dubbed ‘MF, dedicated to the MiG-21MF
in its dierent sub variant service in the Cze-
choslovak, Czech and Slovak air forces . Sin-
ce this is an extension of the successful 48th
scale release, the publicaon in its second
edion that was integral to the earlier release
is included here as well. It also parallels the
quarter scale decal opons. The author of
the book is Marn Janousek. In May, we will
nd further uses for the Bf 109 kit, specica
-
lly the Bf 109F-2 and Bf 109F-4 dedicated to
Operaon Barbarossa, the German invasion
of the Soviet Union in June, 1941. The kit will
centre around units that were involved in this
German endeavor. For the laer half of the
year, we are preparing a 1:32nd scale Limited
Edion release called ‘Legion Condor, ba
-
sed on our Bf 109E-1/E-3, and ground aack
Fw 190As under the heading JaBo.
We also have some Limited Edion items
coming out using some very popular kits
from other manufacturers. This year will
start out in a somewhat non-tradional ma
-
nner with a 1:48th scale Revell Tornado kit in
April. About mid-year, we’ll follow up with
one using the Hasegawa F/A-18C Hornet, also
in 1:48th scale, a Hasegawa F-104J in the su-
mmer, and will cap the year o at E-day with
a Trumpeter MiG-23BN. I will point out that
this will not contain any correcve parts, and
will be oered as molded by Trumpeter. Its
bonus will be a publicaon from Mr. Janou
-
sek, an expert on the subject. Royal Class kits
fall under Limited Edion items and about
those we have already made some menon.
These will progressively include the Tempest
Mk.V, the Mustang and the Fokker D.VII. I ca
-
n’t rule out that either the Mustang or the
Fokker will eventually be pushed to the be
-
ginning of next year. These things are a bit
of ways o and its tough to tell what will
happen between now and then. It should
be assumed that we take advantage of that
legal babble stu about ‘subject to change
without noce’ when we must, except with
nofy when it becomes possible.
The Limited Edion line also includes the
‘membership acvaon’ kits for the BFC.
We’ve been working for some me now on
an acvaon kit in 1:32nd scale and this year
we’d like to add one in both 72nd and 48th.
We also have a 1:35th scale Sherman in re
-
serve and I promise to do everything we can
to get these kits available over the course
of this year.
Also falling under the Limited Edion ca
-
tegory is the SUPER44 line in 1:144th scale.
This will bring some interesng items and we
have come to the decision to rethink this line
and to modify the concept. We will sell o re
-
maining kits through a sale dubbed Sweep,
aer which they will again become available
with a change in packaging. We will aban
-
don the Dual Combo idea of these kits and
release them in a simpler format with one
kit per box. Furthermore, these items will be
bagged; a bit of a throwback to the classic
days of modeling. In order to not just moder
-
nize the line but also to infuse it with some
new blood, we are going to purchase several
kits in Japan, including the A-4E/F Skyhawk,
F-104G Starghter, P-47D Thunderbolt, F6F
Hellcat, Fw 190D, and F-8E Crusader. The
plan is to release these progressively from
the end of the rst half of the year.
And that leaves us with the Weekend kits.
These are made up of past ProPACK and Li
-
mited Edion kits. At this moment, the Spit-
re Mk.IXC Late Version in 48th is coming to
market, and this will be followed in February
by the previously menoned 1:72nd scale
F6F-5 Hellcat. This will be followed by a oat
version of the Hanriot HD.2, the Bf 109E-4,
Fw 190A-3, Spiire HF.Mk.VIII, Bf 108, Alba
-
tros D.V, Fw 190A-5 and the Bf 109G-14, all in
1:48th scale. There will be two 1:72nd scale
Weekends, the MiG-21MF Fighter Bomber
, aka ‘Grey, and a MiG-21MFN. The laer
will be available in me for E-day, to give the
event in Lyse some umf.
Not liming ourselves to just a discussion
around kits, allow me a few words regarding
accessories. There is no sense in going over
these item by item. Just a lisng alone would
take up half the newsleer, but we can cer
-
tainly touch on them a tad. These will be con-
sistent with our established style covering
our own kit releases as well as those of other
manufacturers. We will connue to focus on
designing our accessories to t quality kits
on the market and this has been explained
in the past. We are going into another round
of upgrades following last year’s successful
investments into improving our capabilies.
This year, we want to put into use a laser
ploer for the manufacture of masks that will
bring a sharper and more accurate cut with
less items slipping through QC and into stock,
with a more visible outline on the backing
sheet making for a more user friendly item.
There will also be an upgrade to the electro
-
nic component of the photoetching process
which, although not specically improving
the quality of the product directly, will im
-
prove the delity of the lm used to produce
photoetched brass and that eect should be
noceable in the end product. In the Brassin
line, we are looking at improving the prinng
on resin bits to allow us to expand the line
into more complicated instrument panels
as well as items like side consoles and ul
