Goodness, that DOES look weird.  :o

I hope the canopy on it fits better than the one on their CMC Leopard.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Always amuses me when I see a label like "only 500 pcs" on a box. Makes me wonder how many think it's got 500 parts ?
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

That looks gorgeous! I'll wait till I see an inbox review or sprue photos. Amodel kit quality can leave a lot to be desired...

Probably old news, but I hadn't realised A Model had done the original Handley Page HP.137 Jetstream (under the SOVA-M label), that's all the major variants.  Plus Airfix are bringing their old kit out again, so a good time to be an Airstream fan.

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I NEVER thought anyone would ever do a kit of one of these, about as obscure as you can get I reckon.  :o

You could stick some wings and an engine on it and create a nice head scratcher.

A most interesting idea, but the real head scratcher is, high or low wing ?
Cessna traditionaly built all their single endine designes as high wingers.
Tricky!

Cats are not real. 
They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

Low wing, from a T-37 :-X

Adams, in the good old days, did a 1/40 kit of the Seneca, with 2 Hwk missiles hanging from the tail!  :o

Or do a near-WHIF spinoff of the five Iranian Gendarme machines, perhaps Iranian Army with a pair of AS.11 missiles.

The Wooksta!

Hannants have that Cobalt Valkyrie in, so naturally I have one on order.  RAF trainer colours, I think.

Sprue shots of the Valkyrie here:

Looks like something that'd be going up against Airwolf!
