Revell 1/144th scale U-boats...
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, February 21, 2011 7:10 PM

I stumbled across the Griffon PE set on the DragonUSA website today for the type VII Cand D versions for this kit and was blown away by the PE sets and the shots of the Revell kit that they are designed for...there was a build-upof the kit w/ the PE attached and I had to order a set and the kit...

DragonUSA has the PE set for about half right now that it normally goes for...thru tomm...

Anyone have any experience w/ either of these kits???

Manny,

I have built all three; they are beautiful kits that I did not feel needed aftermarket products.  They are a great build OOB.

That is really too bad. The VII D is an interesting variant that should be available.  Also too bad is the lack of the Type IX in all of its variants!

Wow, who's selling these for 25 bucks?  I'll buy a set.

DragonUSA---better hurry---I believe the sale is thru today or tomorrow only...the one on sale is for the D model but is identical to the kit for the C models sans decals but plus parts for the mine compartment...normal cost is twice that much... 

The U-boat kits are also getting hard to find...about $25 if you can snag one...C model is about all I have seen available...
