Re: Fov 1/32 Bf-109g

When I saw that thing I just cracked up laughing!!!!!

Yes battleship plates was also the first thought I had.

I wonder if it was a case of some one pressing the wrong button on the Cad system and then nobody was intelligent enough or perhaps knowledgeable enough to say WOA stop the press?

Maybe by the time it was noticed they had made a few thousand? Thats the trouble with Mass production, within minutes of pressing the go button there are hundreds of em!

I wonder if any one had their wrists slapped over this.
 

God Bless America.

If they didn't, they should have! Or better yet, a good arse kickin'.

Re: Fov 1/32 Bf-109g

The Spitfire has this spinner 'innovation' too, the smaller gap between the 2 pieces on the Spit makes it a little less obvious though.

Hey, that FOV Spitfire is looking downright WONDERFUL compared to the Bf 109! Hey, that's it...they're trying to increase their 1:32 SPITFIRE sales!

Re: Fov 1/32 Bf-109g

Just think, in a few months a bunch of people at FOV will be scratching their heads and wondering why their new planes aren't selling!

If their P-39, B-25 and B-26 turn out this awful (and I'm afraid they will) it will be very dissappointing.

The 1/72 line seems to be run pretty good, but I don't know what the Aircobra will look like..

I hope you're right on the 1/72 models - I've got my eye on that B-26!

I don't like FOV planes, never have. This Bf-109 would bring tears to an onion.
