Bassin Maquette just announced on Facebook that they'll be releasing Modelsvit produced kits of the Mirage G-8-01 and G-8-02 in 1/72nd. Will go very nicely with the three Mirage 4000's (still in the to do pile!) I got from them! No word on release date or price yet.

End of 2020 they said.

Modelsvit are re-issuing the Mirage 4000 with a revised weapons load  BTW

Modelsvit have been asking people via their Facebook page, if they should make a 1/72nd scale AN-225, and what sort of price would people expect to pay for one, so who knows, they might just make one.

That would be ENORMOUS! And very expensive no doubt.

But I still like the idea.  ;D

It's upon the Big H, price TBA https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/GIANT7206?result-token=sMk5N

The An-225 is available for pre-order at the Big H. Still no price however.

That's going to be 4 feet long and 3ft 9 wide - It would barely fit in most cars!  :o
As for the weight...?
