Title: Nieuport 11 1/72
Post by: Cajun on October 06, 2014, 11:01:27 AM

 Is Toko {Eastern Express} the only known maker of the Nieuport 11 in 1/72???

  I only have one of these kits and they seem to be harder and harder to find at a reasonable price.....

  Anyone have any leads of any other makers of this plane?


 I have 5 or so Eindeckers and need 4-5 more N.11's ;)

Classic Plane did a vacform, but they are the only 2 I know of (you don't even want to think about the Merlin offering....)

Well if you need 4 or 5 that would make the shipping worthwhile I think. Also don't forget the Nieuport 16 is probably the same mold with a different engine and headrest...

The very best Nieuport 11 was made by Toycraft Berg/Atellier Noir They were a Japanese company who made the most exquisite kits in resin.I have a few of there other kits and in my opinion nothing else comes close.They sometimes come up on ebay and they are well worth it.
