meng kids

Post by wookiee76 »

Has anyone seen any of the meng kids egg planes, from a few photo's they look rather cool. Mainly 4 engined bombers from what ive seen but could be worth a looksie, especially if they make it to the uk.

Only seen a couple of pics in the tamiya magazine and was thinking they might prove fun for an eggplane build.

The B-17 looks very tasty! Would be a great choice for next years egg plane build.

Does that mean I'm a "big" Meng kid? :lol:

They look too toy-ish to me. However, I've seen great models that started as toys and I bet a more skilled modeler would get some nice results.

Tiger-Model is a new brand that released some military vehicles and they are giving some little planes as a gift: http://www.tiger-model.com/listDirect.a ... ge=0&hl=en

I already ordered the 1/72 Abrams. Let's see what plane comes with it (it's random).
