The latest complete egg plane kit to join the RetroWings Egg Plane range is the Mirage IIIC.  It’s a resin kit with our usual features, that is detailed cockpit, vac-formed canopy with additional resin canopy plug, decals designed in Belgium by Rob Haelterman and printed in the USA by Aleran.  The kit shows well the main differences of the IIIC in comparison with the later (but earlier in terms of our own catalogue!) Mirage IIIE/5, in particular the air intakes starting under the canopy and typical split exhaust nozzle.

We have not finished just yet with the Mirage family, with the Kfir and Mirage IIIE/5 ‘two-seater’ to be released later this year.

And before those releases, we have the Airbus A340 and A330 also coming out as complete kits to complement the lonely Hasegawa Jumbo Jet..!

In the meantime, also new our Egg Plane range is the cockpit detail set for the Hasegawa TBF/TBM Avenger..!  The next few detail sets will be for the Tiger Model series of kits.

2016 sees RetrokiT embarking into a new chapter, a co-operation with AZ Model that will see us touching upon scales we have not, or rarely dealt with in the past.  The first products of this new venture, featuring AZ Model plastic kits and RetroWings resin conversion sets, have just been released, with three 1/72 multi-media kits.  In a market already covered by so many players, we are mostly going for the odd, the rare , the bizarre, and we should also start offering similar products in other scales, taking full advantage of AZ Model’s (and soon KP’s) catalogue..  We hope you’ll support us in this endeavour.

Coastal Craft Models, who have been distributing the 1/144 RetroWings range for a little while now, have decided to enter the world of 1/144 military aviation on their own with a very well designed decal sheet to model a RAF B-29 Washington.  The decal sheet includes markings four marking options.

The latest sets of 1/144 decals from JBr Decals are in.  Lots of Hornet bugs in particular but also some interesting sheets for the KP La-5FN and the Eduard MiG-21MF..!  Well worth looking into!
