Thumbs down Fov 1/32 Bf-109g

I was hoping that FOV would've re-worked the 109 during the almost year long delay between issues..
I guess I was wrong.........

Rivets anyone??


Yes, that spinner is the two-piece version, the tip remains still while the center turns..


The paint scheme is neat, and that's about the only good thing I can say about this..

Re: Fov 1/32 Bf-109g

It's so bad, it's just so bad. Such potential too. Very sad. I agree on the paint and even the idea of including engine detail is good..........but not that engine detail.

Re: Fov 1/32 Bf-109g

WT is that!!! I'm simply at a loss for words. Hope their new B-25, B-26 and P-39 won't suffer the same fate! Otherwise it's game over FOV!!!

I agree. That's awful looking! And the pilot looks like a Star Wars figure.
This is exactly why I'm waiting until after the new B-25 and B-26 come out before I commit to purchasing either one.

It's the new "EWOK" version, coming to a Target/Walmart near you! No wonder the Germans lost, having ewoks for rookie (or WOOKIE) pilots.

Looks like they made it out of battleship plates.

Unhappy Re: Fov 1/32 Bf-109g

I believe that 109 is worse than the 1/32 FOV Normandy Spitfire I have.

Re: Fov 1/32 Bf-109g

Oh my! I do not believe I'm all that picky (I even like Corgi 1:72 Mustangs, Skunky!), but that thing is abominable. What were the FOV designers thinking!
