Nice definitive tests as well.
Can't find it around here so far in my searches.

Yes, unfortunately that's correct.
I checked with them and I found they have no distributors outside Italy, but they can ship everywhere in the world.
May be you will need the help of Google translator to understand what's in the site.

I'm excited for it, love the sand color scheme. I've been doing the quick hitter cheap single engine revell kits as of late so it will be nice to have more than 4 pieces for the interior!
 
Picked up a couple of cheapies, and walked down memory lane.
The 'Bulldog' is for my 56 Squadron collection, and is a re-boxing of the 'Inpact' kit from the mid 1960s. These were way ahead of their time back then, with fine surface detail, interior fittings - and a reel of 'invisible' thread for the rigging. The Lindberg kit provides steel wire for this, and the kit still holds up pretty well, even by today's 'hi tech' standards.
The T-28 kit has seen many different boxings, and dates from 1956 !
It's basic compared to the recently released Roden kit, but has detail which, again, was 'advanced' for it's day. I remember building this kit back in the mid 1960's, although not, of course, in the 'Red Bull' scheme!
With some scratch-building, added detail, and maybe a set of resin wheels, this will eventually be a French T-28 'Fennec', similar to the Duxford resident shown below.
My thanks to Steve for pointing me in the direction of the sale at 'The Modeller', where I got the T-28 for less than half price!

That Bulldog is a lovely kit. I have it among my unfinished kits. Had it just about done quite a few years ago and found out the hard way that you can't mask over decals.

This came in the mail today. I know, I know I'm a glutton for punishment, but looking at it it doesn't look like it's anything I can't make work. It sure won't just fall together though.

I'm searching for my LTD kit as I can't exactly remember why I gave up on it. It's painted and I think it might have been a screw up on my part with the vacu-form clear parts. I also sorta remember adding a plastic spacer either to the cowl(if it's in two parts) or the front of the fuselage. You shouldn't have any problems, Glenn.
