I saw a kit of a very similar plane today at my somewhat LCH. I'm pretty sure it was this one: http://www.luft46.com/mrart/mr229.html
It was made by DML I think, and was 28 bucks if I remember correctly. The two are almost identical, but with a few key differences. I like the angled wing on that HE.

I don't know that I've ever seen a kit of a Heinkel p-1079b. It's awfully neat looking though, I wouldn't mind having one around. I might have to settle for the Ho 229 however. Keep looking, you never know when you might find exactly what you're looking for!

Good luck.

Reminds me of the A-6. Look at the front end and were the jet engines are. Same configuration to the A-6.

Hi,

thanks for looking, but it's the wrong model.

I am looking for this one:

Here's the box art of that 1/72 Planet Models. It's available from Hannants, in the UK, at the cost of £28 (that's about $44).

Yeah, I knew about those links, no go, I was hoping someone would have seen one at their local hobby shop (the ones here are terrible)
