I like the clear greenhouse, way better than just painted on windows.

price is a bugger at close to 200.

I hope Tristar does a 108 in 1/35 or someone does the plane in 1/32 kit format.

I was just checking out that 108. Seems to have a well detailed cockpit, and I wish it was not so pricey.

...and you all complain about the pricey 1:18 scale aircraft

I could practically get a JSI F-14 for the price of that little ME-108

And the 108 had nice looking spots!

Yeah,the spots on this one are actually supposed to be there.

The K and C stuff is pretty expensive.
Nice looking Me 108,but $200 is too much for me.

i actually figured it would be more than $200, given their other prices. Interesting choice..

Nice but K&C is out of my league price-wise.

Revell made this craft in 1/32. You can still find them at toy and model shows. I recently attended a model kit show in the Chicago area and picked up the complete kit for $5.

really Revell? Never saw one, I know there are 1/32 Fiesler 156 and 1/35 early 156A/C(that's what sitting on the table now)

I am still waiting with baited breath for Masterbox to release it's 1/35 C-47 and Ju 52/3m plus the gliders. but I am def going to get a Ju-52 for Norway or Russia schemes.

I can't find anything other than 109s for Revell in 1/32..the biggest plastic model for a 108 I can find is 1/48 and none by Revell.

still no dice on a plastic 108 on search, but there might be a resin and prob a vac-u-form kit in 1/32

Nothing from Revell was found so far online.

I checked my Revell books going back to the 50's, no mention of a 108 in any scale. Be interested in seeing a pic of your kit.

I think I'm gonna get one of these, K&C stuff is a pretty good investment.

My apologies. I have Rommel's Storch, a Fiesler FI 156c-1, made by Minicraft Hasagawa. Sadly another senior moment for me.... It's still a cool plane and for only $5.
