Any idea on price?
Lee

Around $50.00 or so USD…

Right now places like Great Models and other on-line shops the pre-order is 39.00.

The pre-order prices are usually a tad lower untill they get comfirmation of the actual retial from thier dealers.

As MRC/Academy kits go 50.00 is still very good…Isn’t the 1/35 UH60 a 60.00 dollar kit?

The CH46-E is due mid April so far.

looking forward to doing a Canadian rescue KV107
