Maybe they've learned the lesson from the debacle with the Lightning jetpipes and back end, but I doubt it.

The deal with Trumpeter is that they apparently have multiple design teams, some being much better than others,
but no overall design/quality control management or philosophy.  :banghead:

G'day Gang,

Trumpeter are releasing an ASLAV-25 in 35th, with a review over on Armorama.  Kudos to Trump for specifically asking for comments about the test shot to ensure accuracy!!

Regards,

Welcome news - I hope they also do the non-turretted variants (i.e. Command, Surveillance, Ambulance and Personnel Carrier).  One of which interestingly enough is shown in the background of the boxtop art.  I have a few ideas for these.

Regards,

Greg

Mornng Gang,

IPMS Deutschland has a review of the Trumpy F-105G Weasel in 72nd.  Looks like a neat package with a scadload of stores to boot.

Pretty much what I was thinking as well.  Got to hand it to "Team Trumpeter" they are consistent with the extra features such as the open avionics bay and gun compartment but the real question is what is the price going to be on this kit and will you be able to afford it in one large payment or opt in for the lay away plan with your local hobby shop where you can make twenty-four smaller monthly payments.
