Yes Jeffers, they do. Picked up this today for £2 from my LHS as the 1/72 Su-33 had still not arrived, the price was a bit of a ‘sorry’ from the owner.  the Revell Su-27 is a Redbox of the ACE kit, you’re better finding a Trumpeter one if you can. So the Su-34 in 1/144 is my entry to this mini GB

The Trumpy ones are around £20 here so should be about $4.99 there!

Airfix has a couple 3.99 ones but I'm not biting. The Revell and Trumpy ones are running 10.00- 15.00 USD

I’m picking up my Su-33 on Saturday  The 144 Su-34 is a very poor kit so it’s headed for the bin. Life’s too short to spend time on a £2 kit

Right then, it's time to stop talking pooh and get the glue flowing  . I've have taken the plunge and started this monster of mine  .  A very basic office which needed a lot of clean up and a tad of filler  .  After dry fitting in the fuselage, I've seen that I am going to have add a little white stuff. Specially in the front of the office and behind the ejection seat   So who's the next one to start then  ?
