Re: Thank you Kyoko!
I, as well, can relate to a great experience dealing with Kyoko. (For those of you whom do not know, we are referring to Model Factory Hiro). I had purchased a 1/12th Ferrari 312 '67 on EvilBay and when it arrived, I found that it contained parts from 2 different Ferrari kits, neither of which was c...

Re: Monaco 1971 Ickx (Protar) and Andretti (Tamiya)
Beautiful job on a couple of quite old kits, warts and all. Good tips too.

Re: MP/4 & Lotus 99T - Fat Frog Products
I have the radiator set for the 99T. Very nice detail, and great for a 3D printed set. I also have the Beemax detail set, and I think the Fat Frog resin radiators will look better than the photoetch radiator faces in that set.
Could prove a challenge to paint them without clogging up any of the fins.

Re: 1/12 Lotus 99t NUNU
I can confirm that my sprue has a similar appearance to your part, Torsten, with a slightly smaller "sink hole" that has quite crude edges, rather than being perfectly round ( if molded that way on purpose). No evident "pipe" on top.

Re: 1/12 Lotus 99t NUNU
I can second that from personal experience of having kits shipped to Canada. I left stuff sitting in HLJ's warehouse for over 2 years post-Covid waiting for a shipping option that was worthwhile. Shipping from Japan is still outrageous compared to other zones. HobbyEasy always goes out of their way ...

Re: PLASTIC Upcoming F1 Releases 2023
I'm liking what Meng has been putting out lately. They (or whomever they contract the molds to) have been using the latest technologies in CAD/CAM, molding tech (slide-molds etc.) I also see the case of them buying CAD (or whatever) files of them. They got their hands on the Wingnut Wings design and...
