Nice one.. Is that a sukhoi su30/33?? Are u into die cast model?? Kinda like die-cast but too expensive for me.. l

yes all diecast some is aroudn 130 to 200 ....... but my F14 from Japan ... RM250 ++ almost 300

It is a Sukhhoi-27 Flanker in Russian Air Force Colour . I have it and it is a very nice diecast model indeed .

The quality of the Sukhoi is quite good...but as I'm not an expert...I don't know how the quality measure against Dragon Warbirds or Air Command . I bought it at Hong Kong for only RM129 after discount.

As for the air combat collection..certain plane is quite nice and is well worth RM15. May I know who is selling the air combat collection coz i still need certain aircraft to complete my collection so i might be interested to buy too.

here is the link i also intrested to get some .... but not all.....like F14 i would like to get a better quality one... as for WWII plane mayb i will jus get those 1/100 ....may i know when u go HK again ? 2 months ago i was at HK also but too busy and actually not much time to shop for models... oni in a rush to buy a F18 and F15 it oledy took me 2hrs shopping there .... my friend complain edi .......if u saw one at HK can u help me get it ?? i will pay u

this is the link

I will not be going HK anytime soon but got a friend and relative going by august or october but i'm not sure they would get the correct aircraft for me as i still prefer to go there personally to buy. If i got go there then i can look for you. Which shop do you buy from in HK ? I bought my Sukhoi at Sogo and they only sells Witty Wings there and there is a shop that sells quite a lot of Dragon Warbirds. Theshop name is 'UML'..you can check it out if you go to HK again . The price of a small size diecast like F-16 is just RM100-120 and for larger aircraft like f-15 it's about RM 150-160 .

ya u are correct i got UML there buy.......fuh 3 story high of toy store i m there for 2 hrs

Ebay Malaysia still have few of the books + the models of course... But it's the common issue.. I bought two from there.. Luckily for me.. Got the Me-262 vers and skyhawk.. I also saw the books at one of the book shop in Carre4 subang jaya almost 2 years ago.. But the shop really cekik darah.. If not mistaken he sell F-117 for rm30.. Dunno laa now still have or not.. As for the quality of the Air combat collection models, the panel line is too big for the aircraft.. But overall it is ok.. It's even better than some of the toys die cast models and it's cheaper of course.. And with the books, it's really a good reference to built an airkit.. Might built my SU-27 one day..

Added on March 25, 2007, 11:27 amHuh... 100++ for a diecast.. Too much for me.. Imagine how many boxes of airkit u can buy with that price.. Lol ... The only real die cast i bought is Dragon P-51 for about rm80.. Dunno laa why i bought it.. Maybe because of the colour.. Really nice one.. Planning to collect all edition but unfortunately, the shop close ody... Ouch... Other than that is my Air combat collection models still in box and 1 Matchbox Panavia Tornado (decent quality)..

i know its expensive..... but for us who dun hav time to build the model... and don hav such skill.......then we will jus go for diecast.....and it wont spoil after few years also beacuse it was made from diecast.. and u can actually held it up and look around them... if plastic kit ... u oni can look at it on its display shelf... dun dare to touch it.. because it will break

Lol.. Yep.. Im also considered myself as beginner modeller.. Still got a lot of room to improve... .. I have to agree that airkit is hard to handle.. especially if some of the part do easy to break.. Sometimes it really annoy me if i lose some of the parts or even break it.. But that's the thrill of it... hahahah ... Sometimes it takes me whole month to built just one small model.. Well with a lot of distraction of course... Even now, one model sit quietly in the box half complete since I have to be away from house for few month.. Have to wait until holiday to start it back.. Hahahha.. My last model is Dassault Rafale that i repaint back to camouflage scheme.. Some of my models pict is here.. http://shahrs.fotopages.com/ .... Owh by the way why the is there any Russia/Europe/Chinese built fighters/bombers die cast??? Even german WW2 theme is nice (even the prototype)...

Lol.. True also.. Need a bigger house rite... Coz of limited space.. If die cast can put back on box and store it... But if airkit, hmmm i dont think laa kn.. hahah

tats y i prefer diecast although expensive... but it last longer

I got the piece at 50% discount from MH (Miniature Hobby) during their moving out sales at MidValley. This is my first piece of diecast on fighter jet so i can't tell you how's the quality as I have no other piece to compare with. Your F14 looks good...I am also trying get F14 but MH dun carry it. How much you pay for your F14 from HLJ inclusive of the postage cost + tax if any?

Hi.. MH reminds me of my old days when im still working dat time... I miss MH in midvalley.. Used to browse there every weeks especially when its nearly gaji time ... Need to restocking some models... Coz my models kinda exhausted already.. I mean the small plane usually 1:72 ww2 theme that i can built straight from the box... If the good one, kinda "sayang" wanna built it.. Thinking of investing some aftermarket stuff for that good models...
