Hey is that a large scale TIE fighter?

[rickshaw]

What is with the Japanese and Gundams?   

[ChernayaAkula]

Yay! Dana! (only the price scares me a tad  ) And Pit-Road will do a 1/72 Type 10 MBT!   LTV(A)-1 by Dragon in 1/72.

Think that's the 1/48 Fine Molds kit.

[Green Dragon]

Rickshaw's right, TIE fighter is the new Finemolds 1/48th kit Toolslinger.

Dang it Why is there not a freaking TIE that is in scale with the old large scale X Wing

The original approximately 1/43rd kit or the 1/35th Pro-Shop electronic one?

If the Pro-Shop version, a resin 1/35th TIE was available and the old MPC kit of Vader's TIE is 1/36th.

BTW Fine Molds makes a 1/48th X-Wing.

Some interesting tidbits in there, but I didn't really find anything to drool over till I saw this:


1/700 USS Albany CG-10

[Joe C-P]

Finally a new Albany, in a standard scale!
I can do a BBG USS Kentucky.

That sounds like it will be an interesting mix and match, but should look rather impressive when completed.

Wonder what other modern ships they will have in the works for next year in this series ?

Like the use of the wespe marking on this:



1/48 Tracker looks nice as does the 1/48 Fw189.

For the Hobby Boss Dana, I found out that it will be at Squadron last week of Nov, MSRP of $98.95, yeah $100 kit.....but it is a massive kit.

I actually have it as a pre-order on my website for $89 until Dec.1

Here are a LOT of piccies from the Tokyo show. http://www.hobby-show.info/tokyo2010/
Includes a 1/144th scale BAe/Raytheon HS125-800 from F-Toys as various JASDF versions such as the U-125, Airfix's 1/72nd Stratos 4 TSR.2 Meteor Sweeper built & painted, Pegasus models Mercury 9 Rocket and Block House/Control Tower test shot build. Also there are test shot builds of the tweaked AMT Romulan Warbird & USS Reliant. The 1/48th Trumpy J-10B and 1/32nd A-4M look really good, definitely getting the J-10B but 1/32nd isnt my thing though I may be persuaded by the Skyhawk.
Nice guns from Marui.

wish some of those "robot" mec warrior kits were available  here had a few of them in the 80s when a local toy shop had a few but since gone into the bin and the weapons kits also

[ChernayaAkula]

Diggin' the TSR.2!  And I'm sooooo lookin' forward to Kinetic's 1/48 Mirage 2000B/D/N.  Even though it's 1/48.

Have a look at Hobby Link Japan. Occasionally, some of the Mechs are on sale at ridiculously cheap prices. Managed to bag a couple of Gundams in 1/144 for only two or three EUR each when on sale a few months back. And they seem to have some sale or other all the time.
