Hello all. It has been brought to my attention the seam on the canopy is correct. My mistake. I actually double checked it and still missed it lol.
I personally like a brutally honest review , that’s why I watch kit reviews so I know to buy a kit or not , awesome job mate
Thanks mate. Glad you like it. Thank you for watching
Love your honesty, that's why I watch your chanel. 👍
I appreciate that. Thank you
Another really honest review that will save us from buying a disaster in the making. Thanks Andrew. Also great to see you getting so many more subscribers. Well done!
Thanks Kerri. Thank you for always taking the time to leave feedback. I really appreciate it.
Tamiya have a long history of reboxing Italeri kits to fill gaps in their 1/72 aircraft range. It is disappointing if you weren't expecting it.
Thanks for the honest review! This kind of information is very helpful in deciding what to spend my $$ on.
Glad it was helpful!
I bought this kit along with 1/35 Leopard I from local tamiya store 2 months before you reviewed because it on sale 30% off for both. Even though it is not great but I hope it will be my teacher for me to practice before I move to better kit in the future.
Коробки у ,тамии. всегда были качественными....дпже для перепака.😉😂
If it's not a Zero, Mustang, Corsair or 109 then you can pretty much assume if it's 1/72 Tamiya it's an Italeri rebox. Buyer needs to be seriously aware. Cool review. Cheers
Thanks mate. Glad you like them. This one really annoyed me lol
@@andrewsartscalemodels 1/72 isn't my scale these days. But I was been enticed by a "new" 1/72 Ju-88 or Ju-87 only to find they were reboxes of the Italeri kits. The only kits Tamiya seem to make themselves are Zeros, Corsairs, Mustangs and 109s... oh and F-16. Check out the Revell 1/72 Grippen over on Scale Model Aircraft- bloody brill.
I built the "original" Italeri version. I polished that seamline on the canopy for hours. It was annoying, to say the least ... You know what was even more annoying? When I realized, that's not a seamline, that's the detonation cord ...
🤣 Don't recall if I knew that when I did the video. Probably not 🤣
Just spotted my pinned comment lol.
@@andrewsartscalemodels Oh ... I read all the comments to see if anyone mentioned this ... all but the first :D
@@andrasi_gyula all good. More than happy to be corrected if I get something wrong 👍
It's an okay kit, just...okay.
Hi Andrew, Thanks for an honest review, not that I'm looking for this kit. I have been posting your reviews to Scalemates daily, I hope it drives some additional traffic and subscribers. Keep up the good work my friend. Stay safe out there.....
Wow. Thanks mate! I really appreciate it! Hope you are well.
@@andrewsartscalemodels Yes we are all well, my oldest daughter got married last week, Yippee. My youngest daughter started at NYU, Yippee. Still out of work, but oh well...stay safe.
i am pleased you did. these models need outing and tamiya need a wake up call for doing it, i can see a few bits for the spares box, but otherwise i would have given it to the charity shop..cheers good review of a shoddy kit..
Thanks mate. No idea why a company would willingly damage their own brand.
We have a saying in Wales ... when something really does ya head in or goes wrong ... that really grips my shit.
I just think you had one of them moments 🤣.
hahaha yeah I was a little pissy. I must remember that saying lol
I don't think you are being unfair and I am very surprised that Tamiya did this. Tamiya have always been high on my list of quality kits to buy. Nice to get a heads up and we can then make informed choices. Not all reviewers are that honest especially if kits are sent to them!!
Thanks mate. Yeah it was a little annoying. I had really expected better from TAMIYA.
Good honest review Andrew!
Thanks!
Thanks for the review a disappointment from Tamiya.
Yeah I knew that some kits were reboxed but I had hoped for better.
The “seam” line on the canopy it’s supposed to be there, the real plane has it 😎. But I am with you, don’t like italeri. Great channel ✊🏼
Thanks mate. I looked on the real thing and couldn't see it lol. Missed it. 🤣 I stand corrected. Thank you 👍
You might say he was "Gripin' about the model...
pretty much lol
