Re: Mig-29

I'll be getting them, but the criticisms are well deserved. As a diecast collector, you just have to get accustomed to manufacturers that don't do their homework and really just don't try very hard to be accurate. They only produce models that look "good enough" to sell. It would not have been difficult for them to remove the chaff/flare dispenser extensions, from the the vertical stabilizers, but they just don't know enough about the plane to know any better.

You're right on the money! It's also probably the only two-seater variant we will ever get of the MiG-29 UB in this scale and for Witty to really mess up the accuracy of that particular variant is unacceptable. C'est la vie....
