anyone familiar with a russian company apex? i got thier carrier rocket vostock kit and it looks ok, especially for russland. is this post red? is there a us importer? did everyone have a nice xmas? > anyone familiar with a russian company apex? I have one aircraft kit from them and it seems fine but not overly detailed. > i got thier carrier rocket vostock kit and it looks ok, > especially for russland. is this post red? Nope, B&W. > is there a us importer? I don't think they are still around as Apex. I think the moulds are now boxed by another company whose name has escaped my brain. > did everyone have a nice xmas? Yes, it was quiet here. And Carl's home from the hospital! Bill Banaszak, MFE Sr. E ESM 72 database shows these three from Apex: ILYUSHIN Il-4/DB-3 "Bob" LAVOCHKIN LaGG-3 POLIKARPOV R-5 Can't comment on origins of the molds. That's what updates are for :-) Anybody? Very nice Christmas and continuing Channukah. Lots movies, Disney stuff, desired clothes and a small but excellent selecton of models and books. Always get a couple of magazine renewals, too, which is always nice. Cabin fever at the moment. Justin is confined to bed until tomorrow after second leg surgery. Keepng him in bed without sitting on him is next to impossible. Lots of good reading with him. Finishing Ivanhoe tomorrow and on to one of his favorite subjects, pirates. He's also way into knights at the moment. Hope that the new year finds everyone healthy and happy. Tom > E > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] >Can't comment on origins of the molds.

If it's similar to their Sputnik with carrier rocket, it's in 1:144 scale, which explains why you don't have details on it, Tom. ;-) I just sold the Sputnik kit and it seemed to be nicely molded, at least better quality than the "red" stuff e mentioned. >Very nice Christmas and continuing Channukah.

Not much to celebrate, with two deaths in the family this year, so I'll just be thankful 2005 will be over soon. All the best to Justin.  SignatureM. J.

All >the best to Justin. yes, 1/144th scale. it's still a large kits. now to track down paint schemes. i hopw there's a camo..... Mary Very sorry to hear that. It's even more disturbing and sad to remember during the holidays. I am putting together an anniversary obit for my father. He died in 1989 and his 100th birthday would have been on 12/17. It is actually a bit uplifting as we tend to remember the upbeat while the negatives fade. He got me into modeling with his antique cars and wide variety of other subjects. I actually saved one of his models which sits on the windowsill next to my desk. It's a Strombecker wood train, the very early one with the passenger cars that look like stagecoaches. Hope that the new year improves for you and for us all. Best wishes, Tom > E > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > >Tom i hoped they had more rockets and i wish i had two vostocks. thanks, tom. Good ol' Ivanhoe. Justin might like "The White Company" by Conan Doyle also.
