Lockheed SR-71 A Blackbird

1/48 is too small, give me 1/32 Blackbird 😄

i love 1/48 but have only built 2 planes from this scale but mostly 1/72 to make my collection scale but 1/48 nice one

I'm almost finished. Would have finished before now, but one of the intake cones was a weird shape and needed a replacement.

My honest opinion? It's better than standard Revell fare. But - their design team (who have made clear progress) is being let down by their factory and plastic quality, in my opinion. Some things not picked up on in most reviews:

- The panel lining can be VERY shallow in places and any sanding will result in the need to re-scribe, and in a couple of instances the lines just randomly stop...
- There are some bad sink marks I've come across in a few of the parts
- If you look carefully you will start to see little dents, marks and deformities in the plastic. At least mine had around half a dozen.

There are other things about, but... it is a Blackbird and it is better than any other option. The fit is decent, the only filling I had to do was the engines to the fuselage. You do get a decent stand for it. The decals are fine. And there aren't that many pieces, so it's a quick build with a big end product.

Would I buy another Revell kit on the back of the experience? Probably not.

That's my two cents!

John Hart
thanks

Dieter Leemans
LOL indeed, I think they mean wish list haha

happens all the time with kits that are not yet released... there is at least one guy who has it in his stash.

Thomas Mayer
Maybe to make the others jealous... :-D

Thorsten Ungerechts
Maybe big thumps? Happens to me sometimes. But when I see it I change it and put it to the wishlist.

I'm really excited about it, but you're right, now may be the time to part with some of it. This is always a risk as a model collector I guess. A new tool bringing down the value of a once sought after kit. This has happened quite a bit to me recently. Trumpeter with their 1/48 Whirlwind really dropped the value of my Classic Airframes kits , Academy's 1/48 Huckbein took my AMTech kits way down, Modelcollects 1/72 B2 hurt my Testors stash, and now this. Please know I'm complaining at all here, I love new releases, just an interesting aspect of modeling.

Pero Susinger
I never thought of my kits as an investment. 😄

Tnagy
It will be out in October.

jimmy christy
revell is usually terrible with part fitting so this bette help there image or im getting a big revell poster and shooting it with a nerf gun

Konrad -
Yesssss! That looks promising😉!

Henk Haveman
It will be huge too!

Soeren .
I hope it will be better than their F/A-18 in 32....

Jeremy Wiltcher
I'm definitely looking forward to this one too, And I agree hopefully it goes much better than the 1/32 F/A-18E, and on time!
