BigGrin Hi All


Had these three kits arrive today from the Czech resin kit/part producer Profi Modeller consisting of Scheuch-Schlepper, Scheuch Crew and the Pressluffballonanhanger.

The Schlepper or tractor unit box opens to reveal three boxes, detailed instructions and a large etch set. the boxes contain metal and resin parts like metal and brass rods along with small rivets and springs. The black resin parts are very well cast with high detail and a very nice finish. The yellow resin parts are of an equal standard. The instructions have high detail exploded part views and are easy to follow and include a painting guide for the parts. Lastly the large etch panel is again well made and should add some nice detail to an already highly detailed kit.

The second box contains the crew for the tractor in various poses driver,mechanic and two helpers to steady the aircraft. they are all well cast and a comprehensive painting guide is included.

The third box contains the Balloon trailer,when a Comet landed this trailer and tractor unit was used to recover it as it landed on a skid. The trailer was reversed under the aircraft with the balloons deflated then when in position they were inflated lifting the aircraft to be taken back to the hangars ect.The kit is very much on par with the tractor unit for parts again the black resin parts are outstanding and well made. The only down side was the 8 wheels were missing but after contacting them by e-mail a new set are on its way as we speak so a faultless replacement service to for missing parts if its needed.

All three kits are well made with high detail and well packaged .The instructions are easy to follow and they will make a very highly detailed set to go with my Meng Me 163 kit.

Regards
