Any shots of the fuselage sprue? |

Can you tell us what has been changed from the old (very old!) kit? are the shapes and such you are working from the same, or has the outline itself been revised? Will you eventually re-do the Fokker G-1? |

Good question, ndente! I would love a new standards' Fokker G-1. Petr, As for the Northrop N3-PB, I am glad to see a new tool kit released by MPM. I built your old kit when it was new, many years ago. For its time, it wasn't bad but it wouldn't be fair to compare it with the newest generation of MPM/SH group kits. I sincerely hope you will eventually re-visit some of your old subjects, updating them in terms of accuracy and modern details and moulding standards. Z. |

Oh yes, would definitely like to see the Fokker G-1 re-visited! The old kit was nice, but has shape issues with the fuselage and I think with the geometry of the attachment of the wings to the fuselage. |
