That's cool! I know the sets for their 1/12 bike kits but never seen one for their quarterscale planes. Since it's Tamy I'm sure you can't complain about quality. Maybe about pricing. :cool:

Got these for the SeaKing - it's cool, you can make one of 4 Apollo missions. Same bird, just slightly different markings

Ya, I get the bike sets when available as the anodized aluminum forks are worth it alone. This set was reasonable - about $10.00 at ScaleHobbiest.

Beautiful kit with brass barrels (tubes) and a nice PE fret

Personal opinion here but I think the old Seaking was one of the best looking Helicopter built!

The Seaking has nice lines, but the S-61L is the prettiest of all.

S-61L, SH-3, and S-62A in the back:
