Anybody know the "Flashback" company???

May 11, 2004 3 Replies

Hi all, I fell upon the Flashack SM-79 at my local hobbyshop today, and have never heard of the company. What's it worth??? I'm looking for a 1/48 SM-79 and have the choice between Classic Airframes, Trumpeter and now Flashback. Could use some advice, thanks.

Flashback and CA are the same plastic. Eduard rereleased the CA kit with additions of photo-etch, new decals and new(?) resin under the Flashback label. More info at Eduard's website,

Thanks for the tip! I'm gonna go for the Flashback kit, which is $15 cheaper too! Pierre-Henri
