Has anyone seen an available model of the Junkers G38?
There was a Revell model, but it is discontinued.
The K-51 or Japanese Mitsubishi Ki-20 derivative would be OK.

I saw it on the film "The Wind Rises", and couldn't believe it was real (never mind actually flew) until an online search confirmed it.

Thanks, I'd looked on Amazon but not eBay.

Box is a bit squished, the description is wrong (a 1/48 Ferrari Helicopter??) and I'm wary of Revell's 1/144 after two tricky MicroWings builds. Revell are very hit and miss in quality.

I'll hang around to see if anyone can turn up an alternative (or say the Revell kit is a good one).

1/144 is a good scale for me as my workbench space is limited. These were big - apparently you could walk down the wing inside the main spar.
