I don't think I've seen this mentioned here, and it looks to be very appetising.http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.p...comment-2493950

Are we sure this is the Hasegawa kit? Eduard has re-boxed the Academy B-24s in the past.

From Eduard newsletter 10/16
"Our goal is to release
two kits of British Liberators, the basis of which
will be formed by Hasegawa’s model kit."

Nice..the Hasegawa B-24s are definitely superior to the Academy kits. But considering what Hasegawa is asking for their Liberators, I shudder to think what the price tag will be on the Eduard boxings.

Ebay USD 100 + post

Amazon 48 USD post included (bargain)

Alibaba AUD 65 post included (but you have to buy 24)

So I imagine USD 125 - 160 for the Eduard version but their prices are very variable depending on who the customer is.

You might be pleasantly surprised. Whilst I wouldn't expect an Eduard issue with a conversion set and any other goodies they chuck in to be particularly cheap, they will be buying in bagged sprues for whatever deal they can get them at.
