Eduard
Czech company Eduard produces high-quality styrene kits, cast and 3D-printed resin accessories, photo-etched metal details and standard/3D decals. The kits come in ProfiPACK and Dual Combo limited-edition forms, as well as standard and Weekend Edition versions. ProfiPACK and Dual Combo items come with extra accessories and tape masks. Highlights from this firm are its 1/48 P-51D Mustang and MiG-21 series kits.
HUNTER VIPER
Tailored to suit either of Tamiya’s missile-hunting F-16CJ releases, this two-fret photo-etched metal set from Eduard is designed to augment the kit’s cockpit, canopy, exhaust nozzle, air intake, wingtip missile rails and undercarriage bays.
FLOGGER OUTPUT
Having re-boxed Trumpeter’s 1/48 MiG-23 Flogger recently, Eduard has now produced a resin exhaust upgrade set for the kit as part of its Brassin range.
AIRBORNE CAT INTERNALS
Designed for Revell’s 1/32 Westland Lynx helicopter kits, this photo-etched upgrade set from Eduard includes two frets containing a plethora of enhancements for the interior – one of which features pre-coloured parts.
SAM KILLER
Eduard’s high-quality photo-etched brass and resin AGM-88 HARMs are seven-piece ensembles, with parts for two missiles, comprising a main body/tailfins, control fins, nozzle rings and a choice of long/short-tailed LAU-118 launch rails (for US-designed airframes – Tornados have different adaptors).
GROUND ATTACKER UPDATES
Trumpeter’s 1/48 MiG-27 offerings receive comprehensive photo-etched metal upgrades from Eduard in the form of this brass fret.
HIGH-SPEED PANEL
Eduard’s LööK range is a great way to incorporate maximum detail into a cockpit with minimal effort on the part of the modeller, and this set for Tamiya’s P-47M is no exception.
FLOGGER BOOTS
Whether it is Trumpeter’s original MiG-23BN release or Eduard’s re-boxing, this resin and photo-etched (PE) brass product offers a significant upgrade to the kit’s styrene wheels and undercarriage doors.
HEAT-SEEKING AIR-TO-AIRS
Suitable for adding ordnance to 1/48 models of RAF Typhoons, Harrier GR.9s, Tornado GR.4s, RAF/RN F-35s, Royal Australian Air Force F/A-18s and Indian Air Force Jaguars, this pair of AIM-132 ASRAAM (Advanced Short-Range Air-to-Air Missile) is from Eduard’s Brassin range.
'FIFTY CALS
Half-inch calibre Brownings were a common feature on many World War Two Allied aircraft, and this pack from Eduard provides six resin weapons.
GLOBAL MUD-MOVER
This is Eduard’s second weekend-series boxing of its MiG-21MF fighter bomber and, like its predecessor, features two colourful schemes.
