Flipper seven-niner

Howdy Wilson!

WELCOME![8D]

No kiddin man, i cant wait to get my hands on some of those!!! thanks papa!

I only hope to bring some good news in such troublesome times…

In other words IF THEY DON’T DELIVER THIS %$#@!&* KIT IN THE NEXT THREE MONTHS …I’m gonna get real mad!..and then I’ll get angry![:(!]

I’m making room for that COOL 1/72, 36 inch long, nifty VII C German U-BOOT from Revell this Dec then The 1/35 Hook! …I hope.[^]

hey hey hey…just what i need to fill in the air strip …a hook and a guns a go go

Hello RoadHard537!..funny that you say that!

We have a member here ( old hooker ) who has been busy with house stuff lately and he was with the Guns a go go in Nam…

Besides the CH47-A the next 1/35 Hook from Panda will be the CH47-B ‘HEAVY’…and in thier web site they show a picture of what I think is Easy money or Birth control…I’m pretty sure its a B?

Your in the right place! We are lucky to have current and ex millitary CHOPPER folk here! [8D]

ive seen on here http://pmms.webace.com.au/newkitnews/newf.htm
that the CH 47A is to be released in June and the AH 47A Gunship in July

hmmmmm…I wonder.

Papa any more news on the panda CHINOOKS??? I’m going crazy here!!!

We shall see…

I wish I new! The last I heard was something like 2nd qtr 2004[:(]
maybe the kit will be engineered by another company?

Well, all I can say is it’s about time for some encouraging news from Panda!

There is such an incredible market for this aircraft, I think Panda is going to be overwhelmed at the demand… then maybe “The Cobra Company” will produce a KILLER super detail kit as an accessory add-on! Ooops… there I go dreaming again![:0]

For those of you who are new here, and desire to build the ACH-47 version of this release, you can find a wealth of reference photo’s on my website; “They Called Them GUNS A GO-GO” (http://gunsagogo.org)

Thanks for the heads-up Troy!

So I guess they wan"t be releasted soon enough for Santa to leave some under my tree . To bad . So maybe Cupid will deliver on valentines day!!! A 1:35 HOOK and a GUNS A GO GO would say I love you much better than chocolate & roses for us CHINOOK fans don’t ya think??? HA! HA! By the way Squadron has dragons 1:35 helo crew in stock again!! A few of these for gunners at the gunner stations of aGUNS AGO GO would add a nice touch!!!

Does anyone know what the Kit# will be?
