That ought to be a beautiful kit JOHN I like the fact that Trumpeter is releasing other Russian aircraft besides MiG's and Su-27's. JOHN

This will be a dilemma for me... I already have an Amodel 1/72 Blackjack. Anyone who knows those big Amodel kits also know thay ain't cheap. I paid some serious money for that kit, but being the Russian aircraft fanatic that I am, it was worth it. Now comes along this Trumpeter kit which by what I'm seeing, is a huge improvement over Amodel. I think I have a way to get one for (legally!) next-to-nothing, and If I can, I probably will.

Reason for this is the versions they chose to make into a kit. Neither the MiG-29M nor the MiG-29K made it past the prototype stage and only a couple of each were built. Why Trumpeter didn't choose to do a production MiG-29 is beyond me.  Just my two kopeks worth... However, if you don't care about that and just want a MiG-29, then they look like they'll be fine kits. |

the only good thing though about the Trump ones is
you get a good cockpit which the revell one lacked
also metal legs , the ones on the revell kit are weak as
i just touch mine it wobbles all over the place
but there again , i only paid £25 for the revell , i reckon that trump one will be about £75 plus
