Re-Release? How can this be as SH just announced the kit this past month and it hasn't even hit the shelves yet? How can we have a re-release already?-- I suspect what's meant here is that there will be an alternative color scheme-- which will be great. The Fokker DII is not well known, but played an important part between the E I and the advent of the Dr I. It's great SH has joined Roden and WnW in releasing more large scale WWI aircraft kits-- The SH Morane Salnier, Bristol, and Nieuport 11s are nice models that fill a void the other two manufacturers haven't ventured into yet. Now I can die happy when someone releases a Dolphin too!

As nice as it looks, I have always had my heart set on the Halberstat D-III.

There I something about it that says Fly me.
