It looks pretty good, but this was after a bit of work. The piping stands proud of the surface of the model by a significant distance, what you see is after I trimmed the vertical parts of the pipes to bring them closer to the body, like the pipes on the studio model.
Deagostini Falcon. Anyone seen this?

Come on. This is a studio scale model. Just use the original part that came from Tamiya's 1/35 SdKfz 232 8Rad.
It comes with that part on the greeblie sprue. I am just leaving it off at the moment as it is very fragile compared to the other detail parts. Sorry if I was unclear about my intentions.

All good. I was just having a spot of fun anyway. 
At least you've got one to build. Us "convicts" have to wait until god knows when.

If I understand correctly, they send 4 issues a month which totals 48 issues a year, does that mean you can complete the falcon in 2 years? what about new subscribers do you get all missed issues with parts all at once? so if my calculation are right total to complete falcon would be approx. $1400 usd ?

That's very reasonable for such a nice replica, I already have the MR but might get this to paint myself, this is money in bank and will go for lots of $ when completed.

It sure beats paying 5k for the MR Falcon. The best part is you can take it apart and rebuild it if you like.

Towards the end of this video for those who have not seen it yet seems to be a photo of the countries that will be getting it and the distributors phone numbers.
So the countries that have not been confirmed yet see if you can see yourself on the list

Quite a few people have been in contact with the Australian distributor already and they're not really saying much at all at the moment.

It's both exciting and frustrating to follow this thread. I live in Denmark so I had to get a UK address at Forward2me to get a subscription. To keep expenses down I compile several issues before shipping them together. So looking at the new parts here really bring brings out the little boy the night before Christmas in me.
This is the most exciting build in the longest time. The level of detail seems to be excellent, so the effort needed to take the model above and beyond awesome is really not that much.
I will however complain a little. Why don't they have Denmark on the distribution list. Hmm, come to think about it, I don't care. I'm getting it anyway [emoji4]
