1/144 Me-262 Mistel, Mig-23/ Mig-27 and Mitsubishi F-1 Updates by RetroKit

Just out!  

Our Mistel 4 resin conversion kit designed to be used with parts from the Eduard 1/144 Me 262 kits.

  The set includes the fuselage of the un-manned craft (to be married to Eduard wings and other smaller bits - though the Trumpeter wings will also fit), the launch trolley and struts connecting the un-manned Me 262 to the piloted Me 262.  The control plane can be any 1/144 single or two-seater Me 262 kit, including the RetroWings Me 262A2a/U2 (Ref. RW44131, that will require parts from yet another Me 262 kit!).

Also new are our MiG-23 & -27 cockpit detail set, to be used with the Dragon and Italeri kits (and not those released by Crown, Revell, Academy, ACE, Matchbox, Airfix,..) and our

 

Mitsubishi F-1 cockpit detail set to be used with the LS, Arii and Hobbycraft kits (and those released by Hobbycraft and Revell, which appear to be poor copies of the LS kit)..
