Just some further goodness available from the Czech Republic. This time in the form of a new line of photo-etched details from a new company called Profimodeler. These are nicely done etched brass sets, similar in quality to Eduard. In some of the bigger sets, they even include different grades of brass depending on the thickness required for the parts in question. Also parts on different frets are etched differently in order to emphasize shapes, raised details or sunken details. Nice stuff.

Here's what's available (all sets are 1/32)

32020 MiG-23 Armament Set 1 (covers the air-to-air missiles) - $25.00
32021 MiG-23 Armament Set 2 (covers the R-77 specifically) - $14.00
32022 MiG-23 Intakes, Wheel Hubs & Screens - $12.00
32024 MiG-23 Pylons, Wings, Parachute Bay, Fin, Elevons - $40.00 (four frets, extensive set)
32031 MiG-23 Nose Wheel Bay - $23.00
32051 Soviet Wheel Chocks - $14.00
32052 Su-25 Wheels & Brakes - $11.00
32054 MiG-23 Fuselage Opening & Braking Details (internal details behind a panel on the stbd rear of the aircraft) - $20.00

Those sets are all available for ordering, I have multiples of a couple of the sets, particularly the intake set, as that appears to be the most useful for the MiG-23 project - I have the Aires sets, and the Eduard sets, and these sets definitely cover details that aren't covered in those sets. I'm working on a build article for my big MiG-23 project so you'll get to see many of these sets in action.

Here are the other sets available (all 1/32), I'll be getting these in over time, as they're for older kits, or for specific weapons. If you have any questions, drop me a line.
