Re: Mig-29

The pictures of the Witty MIG-29 are up on Witty website. The first model is a two-seater. Looking forward to the release of the more common single seater.

this particular livery is not very attractive to me, it seems witty keeps betting on one-offs and colourful stuff that's supposed to sell more units. That tiger, the relatively "unfinished" paintwork and thick moving parts make it look more toyish than their earliest F-15.

Nevertheless, the cockpit shape is surprisingly more accurate than I expected from Witty.I would suggest they make finer window railings (frames), that's easily solved by changing the mask, no moulding or retooling required. I would also prefer a single seater model, but since so many diecast models are based on Tamiya or Hasegawa plastic kits, I am a bit weary, the Corgi sample pictures show a flat cockpit canopy, very much like a cheap tamiya kit.
