Glen Coleman has sent us shots of the build and decal tests of Kitty Hawk's eagerly awaited new 1:32 Texan / Harvard. The first version to be released will be the T-6G.

Thanks!

Oh my!! It's getting harder and harder not taking that 1st step in 1/32 scale with new offerings like this.

Wow, this slipped under my radar, do we know when the Harvard will be released? Are there any real differences between the Hravard and Texan?

I definitely want a Harvard

The Harvard's cockpit was furnished with British instruments, throttle handles and spade grips, and of course painted in R(C)AF interior green. Externally, the rear canopy had a curved lower line as compared to the more triangular shape of the Texan. Canadian Harvards had an extended exhaust pipe to house the cockpit heater and very frequently the main strut doors were omitted. The antenna fit could also be different, especially on postwar Harvards.

Hi again

Glen's sent us the box art for the kit, which should be on the shelves in January.



All the best

This certainly is a welcome and exciting new release.
I just can't help but feel the canopy is not quite right. Where are the main canopy frame corner fillets?

She does look like a nice kit, though. I'm very anxious to she the reviews.
