Wow, you have so serious models in your stash Nigel. That is an impressive kit.
do a video of the engines please :)
Wow , that is really big kit ! Looks like there is a lot there , a build that requires planning !!!! Good one Nigel !
Wow Nigel, I thought the big bad buff was big but this kit is absolutely huge! I would have to get a bigger house if I wanted to build this kit lol! Cheers Nigel!!
You and me both!
This was at Farnborough several times and it had a AN-22 support plane to carry spare parts and engines!
I'm have it, and... I'm happy. It's amazing.
Wow, that kit is huge. You need to build that Nigel.
Wow! Massive kit!
This jet flew over my home here in Indiana several months ago ...flying form Anchorage AK to South Carolina....and even at 30,000 feet it rattled my house....what a beast
Hi Nigel, you just have to build this one! Can't wait!
C’mon Nigel, Build it!!!! Mrya means Dream, so let’s go man. I have the Revell kit, and i think i’m going to build it next year, when i find Metallic Parts etched and resin upgrades. I have the Buran in the same scale, but i have no CCCP decals made by Begemot. Modelsvit is maybe one of the best companies out there, i have several kits of this mark, T-10, Several fitters, Beriev VVA-14, the Blinder and the Geophysica, they worth every euro i paid for. I am waiting for their Mirage 2000’s
Nigel, I live close to DFW airport, and on one side of the airport is the AA maint hangers for the big boys, you drive down a little further and you see the cargo depot for the cargo planes. 2 Antov 124's come around october yearly and its a sight to see. I drove up to the fence to get a close look at it and its pretty huge. It looks like a cross between a C-5a and a 747, it has the the samme blue and yellow swoosh stripe on the side of it, funky looking bird seen in the Lone Star state..
Those big bumps on top of fuselage were not for Buran as many ppl say, but it was planned to by used as launch platfrom for MAKS Air Launched Orbiter. Big fuel tank of MAKS should sit on top of them. Probably there should be mounted some rails for actual air launch.
One of the other exterior cargos to be carried was the Energia rocket parts and other rocket external tanks (al a shuttle). At one point it was considered as a HOTOL Launcher!
Hi Nigel, thanks for the video! Seriously huge model :-) "Mriya" means dream.
And it has fully detailed engines and 6 of them
Hey Nigel, I want to see you build a 1:1 scale of both the 124 and 225. That will keep you busy. You do that you'll have the biggest model airplane in the world!
I found this exact one on a hobby website and it’s impressive
Mriya has several meanings. In Ukrainian it is "dream", in Russian it is a female first name meaning "friendly or cheerful" Either fits. The version of the kit you have Nige is the latest improved version.
What is changed then?
@@NigelsModellingBench moulding quality, technical improvements and I think the engine sprues are new.. I presume the next batch of An124 will also get the new engine sprues too. Decals are added to and for the first time you get all the possible schemes.
When I saw how large the box is it made me 😆 laugh. You could almost make a dog house for Jess with that box. I saw this Plane at our airport from several miles away it loomed above everything on the tarmac. A great review!
That's a serious blob of plastic there!
But to be serious, Modelsvit has made a huge step in improving the product line.
I have several kits of the forerunner of Modelsvit, A-model and they are a pig to put together, parts sometimes requiring so much cleanup and reshaping to make them fit that making a new part from scratch sometimes is an easier option.
From A-model I own the AN-22 which is an absolute beast, also with Fiberglas reinforced resin wings and fuselage, it has some interior detail, although a lot of scratch building will be required to make it stand out.
The quality of molding and the plastic itself has improved a lot, Modelsvit apparently replaced all injection moulding machines when they took over the A-model brand and have since redeveloped many of the older kits as well as producing all new models.
The first kit I own from Modelsvit is the Tu-22 Blinder and it's a beautiful kit.
I hope you do a series of videos on this bird as soon as an interior kit will be available, but you will need a spare room to display this behemoth while being loaded.
Even a 2 car EMU train has flown within the belly of this plane, that's a whole 45-50m of train!
Wow, you seriously got some real modeling for your money spent. And the fiberglass looks to be one of the better ones done from what i could tell. I just hope the landing gear will hold up.
Thanks 👍
If I were 14 and got one of these, my 14 year old self would be thinking: "Great, now I have to find someone really good at building complicated models to *build* this thing for me!" 😄
Saw the real one taxi close by during the Abbotsford airshow years back (British Columbia, Canada).
Reminded me of a car ferry with wings.
Gorgeous plane. I love these big Russian cargo haulers. Even that big helicopter. Good review. I believe the shoulder covers are covering the support structure for the Buran. So not directly a support but a way to bring the load to the wingspar. But it could also be for a cargo pod.
I like the version with red stripe and a black nose and a black section under the windshield .
Rubber Band system which pulls the wings together?
Neodymium magnets.
Nigel, for Heaven's sakes...PLEASE build this!!! Judy in Nova Scotia, Canada
Don't quote me, but I think those fairings on top of the fuselage were something to do with carrying larger loads than Buran.
I wonder if they are fairings for some kind of structural framework that connects the main spar to the fuselage without losing headroom inside?
Looks like you were right James!! www.buran.ru/images/gif/maks04.gif
WOW, that is 1/72, I could not imagine the size if it were 1/48 which is mainly the size of aircraft I build. New friend and supporter. Going to be looking around your channel. I am sure I will like what I see!
It just screams “interior detail please”. What a fantastic diorama one could make. You’d have to give up a spare bedroom to do it though. I’d love to see you build the gear and engines.
Sad seeing this pop up knowing its now gone for good 😣
They will rebuild her.. the fans will fund it.
Hey Nigel, awesome review for this beast! I'm wondering if magnets inside the hull and wimgs would work to minimize the seams?
You know you now have to do a video about the build itself for us mere mortals...
That's quite a kit and i have to admit I am rather tempted but blimey its a 'considered purchase' isn't it? also i really don't have the skills or experience to build something link that yet :) for mine though and for what its worth i would love to see someone of your calibre build it - now that's what i would call a SERIES :) take care and thanks so much for the review
Dave Coley is great, shopped there a few times! 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻
Holy mackerel Batman, it's massive!
You're gonna need to move into an old RAF hangar soon Nige!
I hope that they'll do an Il-76 in 1/72, that and their An-10 would look nice together! 👍🏻
@@Duececoupe there is a 1/72 Il-76 available.
@@NigelsModellingBench
Nige, are you thinking of that Amodel one, with fuselage in fiberglass or something? 🤨🤔
Amazing kit! I just don't have the space to display it and do it justice :( Good luck with the build.
and of course the fiberglass means it's flipping strong
Yes I want to see this model being finished
I would love to do this one.
The other version has a painted nose , red stripe , covered section below the windshield , international cargo markings it has been repainted in 2007 and in 2009.
I want a 1/ 72 Bear bomber.
Ebay is where you'll find one.
Seen it about 4 times one at Farnborough and 3 times at my local airport EGPK Prestwick in Scotland 🏴.
Lucky you!! I'd love to see it!!
The black glare of an-225 is painted white also in the 1982 the An-124 has a black nose and glare.
The lumps on the back is additional structural strength, rhats the reason they exist:) and also I would love to buy one...where can I get one?
Thank you. If you are based in the UK you can buy this one.
@@NigelsModellingBench aww dang any way I can buy one if im from the US?
That's a beast!
Wooww I liked that😘😘😘
Good lord! I thought my Trumpeter 1/48 German VII-C U-boat was huge! Since the major parts are made out of fiberglass, I wonder how much it would cost to take the fiberglass portion of the model to an auto body and paint shop to have it professionally shot with a quality automotive paint?
It would cost me nothing as i have all the gear to do just that.. lol.
Мрія - a Dream from Polish/Ukrainian
this is great. i saw the review. But are you going to build the AN225? You also doesnt know what Mryia means. its Ukranian for Dream. I have a few ukranian friends. So now do you know it. Greetings Roger Mulders from the Netherlands.
I doubt i will ever build it?
Ooh, do i see a tu95 box in the background? I have built one of those and just a tip, put 90g of nose weight or more, and be careful with the landibg gear!
Thank you!!
@@NigelsModellingBench any plans to build it after the big buff (b52) as the tu95 was like a competitor to the b52
@@NigelsModellingBench also, get resin wheels and photo etch parts for the tu95 for some extra details
That’s a rare model kit! This plane is my childhood! Why limited edition?
Do you actually build the kit??
No, not yet.
Will you no or yes
@@RandomGameEnjoyer not sure yet. Maybe??
Thanks for the response.
Wow😎😎😎😎
It’s been 2yrs nige, any thoughts of selling it?
Make me an offer...
Idk, any ideas with shipping to the states?
This is a rare model kit.
That thing is huge 🤤
Omg that so tiny ))
Airplane collection
Hope the company survive the carnage coming. sad :(
The pride of Ukraine!
