Missing MIGs...

All right, so nobody does a 1/48 MiG-21F-13... *grumble*



But has Academy not been selling their PF or MF anywhere of late? I can't seem to find it listed online... Or am I looking in the wrong place?



Still want the 21-f-13, though...


I'm still waiting for a replacement seat for the 1/32 Trumpeter F-13.

As for the Academy kits, I see them listed all the time, although I could not now say where. I'll drop you a line the next time I see one. I'll be at AAA Hobby here in Atlanta today. They may still have one.

Neomega makes a conversion for the academy kit.

From Aerofax's MiG-21 Fishbed (which is what got the urge for an F-13 in real scale going again): Cockpit:... "When closed, canopy locked by side latches, with rear arched frame resting on lugs on each side at top of SK cartridge-fired seat...."

It'd actually be nice to have an "F" as well... that can be backdated to the swept-wing prototype.

Thanks for the link... tempting. But it looks like they left the left-hand gun "open," when it should be a blister (left gun deleted, right left alone.) Eh, nevermind, followed the build link, they got it right....

*sigh* I can see myself spending money on that, and the UM.

Prefer a full kit, sure, but that's a definate possibility.

Academy is apparently soon to release a MiG-21Bis. Or, so Hannants claim...

Be ready to wait, I've been trying to buy that set but nobody has it in stock. Seems they made a few of them and it's been a low priority of making any more.
