Ohhhh, I want it, I want it! But curse these $100 plus price tags. I’m still drooling over their upcoming 1/32 AV-8B, F-100 and A-7. Maybe I should start selling my blood??

…or organs

thanx for the review

This is going to be one huge beast - measuring 510 mm length and 500mm diameter rotor blades. I don’t think I’ve got a display area big enough to allow for the blades.

Has anybody modelled Helos with blades trimmed down, maybe cut 100mm or so away from the rotor head ?

Thanks for the review.

[sigh]I tried to get the wherewithall to buy this model by selling my organs (as pest18 suggested), but when my one little-old-lady customer found out that the one she was interested in was only a static model, the whole deal fell thru.[:(]

The Perth Model site was really worthwhile! Their review of the Blackhawk and Cobra Company accessories was helpful.
