Looks like you can now order straight off their site again. Back to the good old days 8)
Also, ALL of the alternative DVII manufacturer sprues are available as accessories!
-
Very cool! Also see that the new LeRhone 9J/Oberursel UR2 and Gnome 9N sprues from the Camel kits will be available soon - will be useful for quite a few Roden subjects there for a little upgrade
-
All great news. Look also at the decal section as some of the kit decals are available again (especially the LVG). ;D
-
This is great news, the LVG Decals are a "must" for me for the Duellist Kit LVG. By coincidence I spent my bench time yesterday looking for an After Market Oberursel Ur.II for the Mikr Mir Fokker E.V / D.VIII and only found the Vector one. I'm assuming the Le Rhone 9J from the Wingnut Wings Camel Kit would be a correct and better replacement for the Mikr Mir supplied one. Any informed advice on that issue would be welcome!
Cheers,

Yes I believe the WNW "LeRhone/Oberursel" sprue would be accurate for the EV/DVIII - comes with different front parts for each (part 1 is LeRhone, 2 is Oberursel)
I plan to snap a few of those up as soon as available for just this purpose....

I like the dual engine sprue. I was wondering what kit WNW has produced that used a URII ? Like others have said I will use it with the Mikro Mir EV and perhaps a Roden DR1.

Thank you Russell, I knew that before I forgot it!! Old minds work in strange ways, I'll be looking into that one for sure.

......... or perhaps what Kit they might produce that would use a URII?! Now there's an interesting thought................ ??? ::)

We can also get Albie decals again, but no DVII decals, so they remain elusive.
-
There are heaps of spare decals out there in basements and cupboards. Try asking on a few different places.
WNW set 30003 is still available and very nice too.
There is also Pheon and Lifelike decals. Spoiled for choice I say
Cheers

The one trick with ordering direct from Wingnut as I've just found is that the US$ price tag leaves you not knowing what you are actually going to pay. So my last order is NZ$70 higher for two kits than I anticipated. It is also NZ$50 higher than if I'd bought off another retailer in NZ. That sucks.
It seems weird to me - living in Wellington, NZ - that I pay in US$ and then probably get hit with exchange fees or whatever extras which fall into other hands - probably a bank somewhere. Not knowing what you are actually going to be of pocket for when you order locally seems crazy. >:(
I won't be ordering off them ever again (famous last words ;D).
