Small Foray into the 3D World…

With the still timid re-start of the show season, we are on the verge of releasing our first computer-aided designed kits and sets, with amongst other items, this very cute little Kubelwagen meant to complement the World War Toons (and other Chibi) kits. This is quite a departure for RetrokiT, where everything has so far been done the ‘old-fashioned way’ but we must move on with progress! We expect this Kubel to be available for the end of 2021, and some 1/35 accessories to follow soon afterwards.

In the meantime, new items keep entering (or re-entering) the various RetrokiT ranges, first with a Panther Coelian turret meant for the Meng World war Toons kits, then a 1/144 cockpit detail set for the Eduard MiG-15 UTI, a new SW Moisture Vaporators set for RetroSF,… Following the re-releases of our 1/144 Tornado cockpit detail sets, we are re-releasing long out of production Harrier cockpit detail set for the Hasegawa Egg plane kit. The MiG-21 Analog is due next for re-release, as are the 1/144 F-111 sets.

November will see us (or should see us) taking part to our third and final show of the year, in Fleurus, Belgium. We do not expect to go back to 25 to 30 shows a year afterwards, but we will still appear at shows here and there throughout 2022.

Until the next update, be safe and keep scale modelling, Folks!

Shows at last?

The end of August should hopefully see us returning to trading at scale model shows. It’s been a long time since the last one we attended to (February 2020..!), let’s hope the few scheduled for the end of 2021 are not going to be cancelled, because we are really looking forward to seeing old friends again and share a couple or more drinks with each of them…

We are starting off with a show in Huy, Belgium, on the 28th of August. Three weeks later we will again be in Belgium, in Mol this time for the KMK show and although SMC had to be cancelled for 2021, we will have a final outing, still in Belgium, in Fleurus in November. The way things progress (or not) with the on-going Covid crisis will dictate how many shows we attend to in 2022, but it’s very likely to be far less than the 25 to 30 shows we did prior Covid.

We are pleased to finally release our (so far!) largest World war Toons conversion set, the Artilleriewagen S.SP.Pz; Meng’s contribution will be small, just the turret of a Pz III, but if you have used our conversion kits before, you might have that readily in stock..!

September (possibly late August) will see the release of 2 new World War Toons conversion kits, three new 1/144 aircraft detail sets, one RetroSF ‘SW’ set and four re-releases (sets that were out of production but that we are putting back in production).

Lots more scheduled for the last three months of the year but let’s not get too excited!

In the meantime, keep on scale modelling, Folks!

Shows in sight!

As we get into the month of June, the future looks a little bit brighter for scale model shows all over Europe. However, at least for a little while, RetrokiT will not be attending to as many shows as in the past; we averaged over 25 shows each year, we plan to do no more than 10 each year, and there might only be a small handful this year. One of them is likely to be Scale Model World in Belgium in September. Our Agenda will no doubt grow a little as things get confirmed (or not!) over the next few weeks…

Four new releases have just reached the various RetrokiT ranges: two set of SW droids in 1/72, a cool conversion for the Meng World War Toon Char B1 and last but not least a 1/144 cockpit detail set for the Eduard MiG-15bis kits. The latter was a to answer a ‘special request’ from one of our long-time followers in Germany. Let’s hope the new set fulfill his expectations! We welcome any suggestions, by the way..!

More new sets are being cast as we write those lines, we expect 6 new releases in June. Watch this space!

Be safe, get vaccinated, and keep on scale modelling, Folks!

More new releases!

Our 11th and 12th new releases so far this year are now available online. They are:

The Churchill Mk.VII Update Kit designed for the Meng ‘World War Toons’ Churchill Tank, and featuring a more accurate (but still ‘toonish’) turret, side air intakes and engine deck than the base kit,

The F-105F/G Conversion Kit for the 1/144 Otaki, or Arii, Revell or even Entex kits. A long-awaited release on which we started working over 5 years ago.. We got.. shall we say, distracted..!

Other new releases had been planned for early April but our casters are too busy at the moment, so they will come a bit later.. Amongst those are our 1/144 U-2R/TR-1 detail sets, a toon Draisine and some (also long-awaited!) new 1/72 RetroSF Star Wars bits.

We’ll get them ready ASAP for you!

In the meantime, stay safe and keep on scale modelling, Folks!
