Great news indeed. But I have already mentioned it :)

Was there a link earlier to a image of a built model? I wanted to see what the struts looked like, hopefully not PE

Yes, there was. It is 3D print test. The final kit will be plastic, struts included.

Photos of first trial plastic injection. Looks very promising IMHO

I am extremely excited by this. Sure - there is the fussy Roden kit with its unusable decals, and the older Toko? or was it EE? kit.

But its nice to have the choice of a modern moulding.

I know this site is 1/32-land, but the large scale is not for all of us, so thank you, Arma Hobbies for making products for those of us with more limited display space :)
