New kits from Poland

[Isaac]

Just got back from a trip to Poland. In addition to going to all the museums ) here is my thread on the trip In Warsaw Poland )



I got these freshly printed kits. Some are brand new designs like the Yak 25-M, Yak 30 and Yak 1000, and some a recolored and just printed FLY model kits of the Corsair, Tempest and the PZL Karas. In addition, I got the laser frames and canopy for the Yak 25, canopies for the Karas and some wheels for other kits I have.

The Yak 25M appears to be a double kit of regular matt silver and a shiny silver ( I don't know if there are two complete kits, but I think it does ).

The Karas booklet actually consist of two kits. One Polish and one in Romanian marking. And laser frames fro the tow kits are included ( all for 70 Pln Z or about $19 USD ).

Pics of the loot here:








I stopped at another hobby store with tons of paper models ( Jadar Hobbies ), but the vast majority were trains, ships and vehicles which I do not build. So I passed on other plane kits ( all propellers and one helicopter which I will not build anytime soon ).

Vogue of times.Many planes were designed along similar lines and they were all very different under skin.Sort of like cars today-they all look alike from distance.

A very nice haul. I remember back when I was in Germany, when I would go to Warsaw,
the FlyModel kits fit perfectly in my backpack!

Looks like you got some really nice stuff.
Did you happen to notice any new realease civil/ commercial aircraft. I for one would love to see some newly printed airliner kits.
