This came in the mail today. Very thick box, heavy as well. A note of caution if you are unaware. Hasegawa has released two Betty kits with Ohka's. Both have the same well done Ohka, but it was paired with an early, chunky and minimally detailed Betty. This is not that kit. The Betty included in this kit is highly detailed, both in and out.

As far as I can tell the older crudely done Betty/Ohka combination can be identified by having the bulged side side gun blisters, while this combo kit has the flush side gun ports. Basically an early version Betty, verses a late version.

Anyway, hope this helps someone.

Here is the version to avoid. Curiously, both have the same well detailed OHKA. Go figure!

Some nice stuff there. This showed up while I was in camp...

...to be done as the box art for the current GB if I mange to get the Hellcat done. If anyone wants to see the innards, I'll take some pix.

Good stuff Glenn and Geo.
I might be doing a Spit XVI as well, and possibly a Mk22, if I get the time to enter the GB.

 

[Lucky13]

Did I hear my name being mentioned?

 

[Airframes]

Ah, TSR 2.
Does that mean "The Swede Returns " ?
Good idea for an on-going caption thread " The Swede returns to .....(fill in appropriate word/phrase) "

 

[Lucky13]

Only because it was cheap-ish, seen them go for silly money on the fleabay....

 

[fubar57]

Nice Jan. Have to check that one out. Could put it beside my Arrow......when I re-start it

 

[Wurger]

However it seems Jan becomes more and more Scottish than the Swettish.
