I was excited to get this but I am reading that Kittyhawk models is out of buisiness? Also heard that trumpeter might be buying the molds. Not sure if I should buy this kit at the exorbitant price now or hope and wait for trumpeter to come out with one....
When showing the sprue up close, place a piece of sheet plastic, or cardstock directly behind the sprue. In nearly every frame, the cutting mat is in focus in the background, the sprue is not.
- Nice unboxing. - I think the design of the kit is done by a company called Paragon or something like that. - This time the lighting seems in order. Nothing underexposed. - Your comment about the microwave made me chuckle for a long time! 😀 - I was following Phil's build on the Flory forum and it was nice to see what the Romeo kit contains.
I am using the same lights. This time I did it on the workbench and not a shinny white table. Which may have been affecting the camera?? I ordered an overhead camera mount for my bench so will start filming everything from the bench. You may want to avoid the Kiowa OH-58 review next week. That was already filmed on the white table. So the lighting is probably crap. Richie
Almost wish I could order all my Chinese manufactured kits like this. Ive ordered from Sophia 3x, free shipping its great! Flory's SH60B build looks amazing. I want to build the Coast Guard Jayhawk.
@@RWHobbies Thers was no other charge, and it arrived really quickly, however it does seem that it was cut open around the lid, possible customs check. No damage to the plastic though,!!

Zimi Models bought the molds..all the kits are available now.
Awesome review can’t wait to get mine... Are you getting the HH-60H? Hopefully you will be doing a review on that one also.
Thanks for watching. No, I think this is the only version I will be getting right now. Richie

Yeah, that one will look good in the CG markings. Thanks for watching! Richie
Great tip, £90 inc P&P to the Uk from Sophia, really looking forward to this one
Hope you enjoy it!
Oh btw... in USA where I live there is not import tax. If you are in UK you may have to pay customs charges and VAT upon entry. Just a FYI.
@@RWHobbies I will update you when it arrives for anyone interested.
