man O MAN!!! cant wait....oh, how much I bet they already have a F-5F in the works. guess i better finish the monogram one soon.
they should get somebody to be a wee bit more careful on assembling thier test shots...the landing gear and one of those horz stabs look a bit out of alignment
no price yet eh? |

So far so good, it's a nice looking model and I will certainly buy one. Maybe 2!
Also would be nice to have a T-38 too.
Finally, a T-38 and F-5E in 1/32 scale would be nice too. |

Is it me or are the undercarriage bays for the main wheels very shallow? |

My very first 1:48 aircraft build was Monogram's F-5E, way back in 1979 or so. Over the years I've developed a certain fondness for the Tiger II, and I'm glad to see that AFV Club is closer to getting this one on the shelves. All in all, the test shot pics look mighty promising. Quoted Text

They look shallow to my eye, based on that one photo. -YL |

S! Without a doubt, this is one of the most expected kits of the current/next year. Particularly by us, Brazilians.  |

Shallow indeed. And the canopy appears a bit thick as well as milky. Other than that it's looking pretty nice. Hermon  |
I was givin a choice between building models or taking anger management classes.
