That’s alotta parts! Too bad they don’t have parts to create the 3-person crew Hind-A version, with the squared-off glass canopy.
Damn’ it, another great helo in 1/35!
It’s even got PE parts.
Where the heck sould I put it … they’re gonna kick me out of the house! [banghead]
Got to get one, looks awesome !
I noticed that the engine cowling is molded in clear plastic but there are no engines included in the kit that I see. Anyone know of any aftermarket resin coming out for this bird?
There ya have it! I’m not a helicopter guy, just like the HIND’s lines. What’s a “rhino on the ramp?” Is it a helicopter sitting idle on a landing strip?
yup [:D]
I found some infos onn Trumpeter’s site:

Lots of pics and descriptions.
I have got to get me one these HIND kits!!![;)]
Yesterday I went to my hobby store and ordered one of this birds. The owner told me I’d lay my hands on the model soon.[angel]
Anybody wanting to host a homless engineer with LOTS of big scale models???[B)]
Go to the Helicopter forum group, there’s a connecting web site that gives a pretty good review of the Hind. So many new and upcoming 1/32 kits but so few dollars!
