I got it... I got it!

Today I got the 1/35 Mil Mi-8/17 from Trumpeter for a very good price $84.95 shipping included. I have never seen a box of so many goodies...




The kit is VERY detailed and looking through the instructions- the engine assembly alone is a piece of art. Highly recommended.

Nice! I've always liked the "Hip" too.

Should be a nice build - keep us posted on the progress once you start.

How big will that moster be when it's all done?
A day in the Corps is like a day on the farm; every meal is a banquet, every paycheck a fortune, every formation a parade... The Marine Corps is a department of the Navy? Yeah...The Men's Department.

The box says it's 721mm total length and the main rotor is 608.5mm in diameter.

I was looking at the halves and was thinking the same thing: how big is this thing going to be and where am I going to park it?

1/35 scale armor is going to be dwarfed by the helo when done.

Dunce [D)] D'OH!!! When I saw the topic title, I thought you got a Little Bird!

That Hip's going to be really cool looking when it's finished. Looking forward to seeing it when you're done. Have fun!
