Title: Blue Max Triplane sets from Aviattic
Post by: gedmundson on August 20, 2022, 04:31:44 AM

Just got this email from Richard Andrews at Aviattic - and pre-ordered the Willy Von KLugerman set. For those of us who loved the Blue Max movie, it's an attractive offering to convert the Roden 1/32 triplane into one of the three schemes used in the 1966 film.

Cheers,

 .... also a good chance to buy the Roden kit sans box, sans decals for only 27.50GBP!
As various listees here have shown, the Roden kit still makes into a very nice model, especially if you use some of the leftovers (cowling etc) from a Meng build.
