Title: Horos Il-4/DB-3
Post by: madoc on October 18, 2007, 08:17:21 PM
Folks,

I've been looking around for a good 1/72nd scale kit of the Il-4/DB-3 and found mention of one produced by a company called "Horos"  Has anyone here heard of that company?  Looking over the images of the kit pieces it doesn't look like the VEB Plasticart kit.

If you've heard of this one I'd appreciate your sharing your thoughts about it.

Thanks,

Madoc

Tiso,

The only image I have of the parts is on its eBay listing.  That listing closed but it is still viewable on eBay.

DGM,

Yet another boxing?  Figures.  Seems there's no end to the places that moulding crops up!  Thanks for the info.
