Among this month's new releases is also SH72505 F-84F Thunderstreak ‘Reborn Luftwaffe’ model kit. And each of the kits does contain a piece of metal taken from the real F-84F jet that had crashed in Czechoslovakia in 1959. Today let us show you what you can find in the box and we would like to encourage you to not hesitate this time as the release is limited to only a thousand examples and there will be no re-release. Why? Not enough F-84F wreckage pieces unfortunately.  A.R.

A very welcome addition to our Zetor tractor kits in 1/72 and not only to these will be this MV136 trailer. As was its larger cousin (kit 8067), this one also comprises resin cast parts, 3D-printed parts and a sheet of decals. In this smaller scale, we have decided not to use photo etches this time as they seem a bit superfluous.

These correction sets have been designed for the quarterscale Italeri/Academy TBF/TBM-3 Avenger kits, originaly released by Accurate Miniatures. And the trouble with the Dash 3 kits is that they offer the narrow blade style propeller that were utilised on the early TBF-1 airframes while the TBF/TBM-3 Avengers had these broad bladed units. Set 4472  with this propeller is already available, and this month we are releasing also set 4471 with the control surface parts that have the correct number of service access panels and also can be posed in deployed positions.

 Jan Šimon has built this quite unusualy looking Martin using model kit FR0042 Martin model 139 and finished it in Argentine colours. Not only is the model superbly built, it is also very rare version as the original Martin was rebuilt following an accident and got a new, locally designed nose.

Dear Business Friends,    In this April Newsletter, we are happy to be bringing you another 1/72 F-84F release that besides offering Bundesluftwaffe schemes and decals also contains a metal fragment of the actual F-84F airframe that crashed on the Dyleň hill in Czechoslovakia in 1959. Our another new release is also an interesting one, the 1/72 Show Must Go On! AJS-37 Viggen with a colourful boxtop and striking scheme. The following two styrene model kits are re-releases, the F-84F SH72395 is already sold out completely and due to popular demand we have decided to offer it again and the Biber German Midget Submarine model kit had been out of production for quite a long time and so now is back on offer.       Our range of sets, both resin and 3D printed, gets very welcome addition this month in the  form of some more correction sets for Airfix’s 1/72 Typhoon model, nicely detailed MG15 machine guns sets in 1/32 and 1/72 and resin cast detail sets for the 1/48 TBF/TBM-3 Avenger and 1/72
