I got it... I got it!

Today I got the 1/35 Mil Mi-8/17 from Trumpeter for a very good price $84.95 shipping included. I have never seen a box of so many goodies…


The kit is VERY detailed and looking through the instructions- the engine assembly alone is a piece of art. Highly recommended.

Nice! I’ve always liked the “Hip” too.

Should be a nice build - keep us posted on the progress once you start.

Wow, looks great. Can’t wait to see some engine construction shots, keep us posted.

That’s going to be an awesome build, Borislav, looking forward to seeing it come together!! [:)]

Take care,
Frank

How big will that moster be when it’s all done?

The box says it’s 721mm total length and the main rotor is 608.5mm in diameter.

I was looking at the halves and was thinking the same thing: how big is this thing going to be and where am I going to park it?

1/35 scale armor is going to be dwarfed by the helo when done.

[D)] D’OH!!! When I saw the topic title, I thought you got a Little Bird!

That Hip’s going to be really cool looking when it’s finished. Looking forward to seeing it when you’re done. Have fun!
