New spoked wheels.

[Chris Johnson]

I just want to know how they can make them look so good in 1/72 scale. Incredible.

Cheers,

I have seen the wheels  in person when I was at the Orlando IPMS Nationals . The wheels are made very nice and will look great on any WW1 A/C.

So Willi do the wheels/spokes come pre assembled?

From the information I have the wheels are pre assembled, the first three wheels to be released will be for the Fokker DR.1, the Fokker E.III and the SE.5a, these will be perfect for the new WnW Fokker E series. You have to remember that this is a brand new company so they are busy getting things ready for the initial release, they hope before Christmas. We just have to hold tight and wait for news but I'm sure what will be released will be spectacular.

Yes the wheels are preassembled with two colors for the tires ,black and gray.

Thankyou. Thats excellent. That is a fiddly job at the very least let alone get them looking as good as you, the experts, do. I will be picking up some of these as they become available.

Me too!
I like the logic expressed earlier; expensive but if only used on a few kits (Fokker E Series for sure) they make good sense.

Most PART of Poland PE sets have spokes included.

..but the Part parts dont come with a third arm so I can put all the Part parts together. I tried a 35th bicycle a few years ago and it was crazy.

I built a set of Toms Modelworks PE spoked wheels for my Voisin build, they turned out really good but believe me, they were a nightmare to assemble, very fiddly and fragile and like you said Steve, I needed a third arm. I have to admit though, once assembled they became very strong and once painted didn't look too bad, they still have the flat spokes though.

The more comments I read, the better these look!

As one would expect from UMM/John, these are gorgeous.
