ME163 Komet (1 Viewer)

A ME163 Komet rocket plane is pulled into position.

This is a set I picked up at the Texas Show and was one I passed on originally, but always regretted it. Well when I saw it in person at the show I had to have it. Here are a few shots of the set and a shot of me, my better half and Andy at the show... fond memories. One thing though Andy, with month by month releases, it's impossible for the average guy to keep up or buy everything he wants!!! I do appreciate the vast amount of choice you provide for us WWII collectors. It has made this hobby extremely fun to participate in the last 8 or 9 years I've been collecting K&C. Keep up the good work.

Thanks guys. I had some bad lighting last night taking these pictures so I got some clearer ones this morning.

"ANOTHER" - wonderful combination of elements to form a great diorama.
I especially like the close up of the driver looking back at the ME163 at ground level.

Thanks Larry. That little tractor vehicle that comes with the set is neat with the driver looking back to make sure everything is good.

Actually Duke, I think the lighting kinda works in the original pic's as there is a bit of cloud cover around on the backdrop which adds to the realism that cloud is making it a little darker. The new pic's are great though.

Tom, the first pictures I took at night under lamp light and the later pictures with natural light only. A different look but I see your point. Thanks for the feedback.
