There's no way I'd get a F-16 from Italeri when there's so many better kits.

I already have the White Scout Car in my US and Russian armies. I can get another for my French army
I also should try and find another Leopard 1A5 to build for my Italian army. I never knew until now that they had those.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Exactly. The only Italeri Viper kit I had, the belly tank was too large for scale.Medicman71 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 01, 2023 2:55 pm There's no way I'd get a F-16 from Italeri when there's so many better kits.

I’ve got two… their NATO A, and their C. Both kits look nice, although I haven’t built either one yet.Medicman71 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 01, 2023 2:55 pm There's no way I'd get a F-16 from Italeri when there's so many better kits.

Re: Italeri April Releases
I haven't been the biggest fan of Italeri. Their Growler that I started is absolutely horrible and so incorrect. I saw their Super Hornet and it's the same.

I liked their Osprey and OH-13. I have a few others in the stash - but ya, they aren't Tamiya/Hasegawa
Thanks,

Re: Italeri April Releases
Ok I will say that the Osprey isn't too bad even if it's designed from the prototype. At least it doesn't have an identity crisis like the Hobby Boss does.

Re: Italeri April Releases
They do have some good kits but they will always be on my hate to build list. It's not that I don't build them, I just hate doing it. The B-26K was another example, too much work and extra stuff to make it look like the box said it was.
