I hope and rumours from Russia says that, it will be released very soon, we are working on new decal sheet with interesting cammo schemes.

Hi,  :)
Very nice models!
I wonder if they will make a La-5F too, or if it will require the kitbashing from both kits.
Who knows the price of Pe-8 of Zvezda? The Amodel was beyond my will to spend for a kit.

Additional info from Nuremberg - La -5 "razorback" can be expected in September. Pe - 8 was exhibited only in a form of built kit, no additional facts. Price for sure will be much lower than Amodel short run. My colleague was asking for that.

La -5F - nobody knows, they did not talk about. But, these superb kits are coming from resin VECTOR masters, and VECTOR is producing "F" version. Anyway, together with decal sheet You can buy (modelimex.com) resin conversion for La -5F. Nice done, good fit and also decal sheet contains interesting cammo scheme.

Griffon is right now working on detail set for FN version, I am pressing him to include also "F" parts. We will see. Griffon detail set will contain avalon decal sheet which is normally sold out, so You have second chance guys. Distributed by Modelimex, date of release not known today, I will keep You informed, as usually.  :)

oops, I forgot to give You info, that conversion for "F" version with decals is produced by AML... sorry
