Title: New (?) 1/72 Yak-23 from MPM Post by: John Thompson on January 11, 2012, 07:02:14 PM From Scalemodels.ru:
http://scalemodels.ru/modules/news/img_4095_1326264244_12410__700x1024_mpm-news-12-01-5.jpg.html No indication whether it's a new mold or a reissue of the KP Yak-23; I'd be surprised if it's the KP one, since MPM haven't borrowed any KP tooling before, to my knowledge; however, some of the kits in the seven-page news release are marked as new toolings with a red circle symbol.

I already have the Yak-15 and -17, so all I need is the Yak-23 to complete my set of early Yak fighter jets.

There is not enough: Yak-19, Yak-25 (first), Yak-30(first), Yak-50(first). Title: Re: New (?) 1/72 Yak-23 from MPM Post by: learstang on January 12, 2012, 12:33:56 AM A new tool Flora - sounds nice.

Yes, very unfortunate - another kit for Prop&Jet to correct? :D John Title: Re: New (?) 1/72 Yak-23 from MPM Post by: Walker on January 14, 2012, 10:20:41 PM It makes no sense. :-\
Title: Re: New (?) 1/72 Yak-23 from MPM Post by: John Thompson on January 15, 2012, 01:14:36 AM It makes no sense. :-\ True! I hope they will correct some of the mistakes before it's too late. New kits of VVS aircraft, especially GPW types and early jets like the Yak-23, are not released very often, so it would be good if MPM will do it correctly.

The bulk of the low-quality handicrafts made out of which a good model to gather hard. But they are closing this market and do good, the correct model becomes meaningless.
