PLEASE NOTE THAT WE WILL EMBARKING ON A
BUYING/RESEARCH TRIP TO EUROPE FROM JUNE 23 THROUGH JULY 17. ALTHOUGH WE WILL
CONTINUE TO ATTEMPT TO ANSWER E-MAIL IN A TIMELY FASHION, NO ORDERS WILL BE
SHIPPED DURING THIS PERIOD. THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING.
June 25, 2008
Here's a quick update before
our departure. Amodel have sent us a revised release schedule for their new
Amonster kits. The Il-22M is ready for dispatch. The Tu-126 kit (along with the
Pe-8 polar variant , Er-2 ON and KS-1) will be released in the next week or so,
and we will be ready to dispatch our preorders on or around July 18.
The Tu-114 and Il-20RT have
been delayed, probably until September. However, the company is now bringing
forward two other releases to early August:
AMONSTER
018P 1/72
Mil V-12 HELICOPTER
AMONSTER 025P 1/72
Beriev/Ilyushin A-60
laser tracking aircraft (one of the rarest and most secretive of Il-76 variants)
We are opening our preorders
for the above kits. We do not yet have any firm prices (expect to pay around the
$200 mark), but our regular customers can rest assured as ever that the preorder
price will be the lowest on offer for the first production batches of these
kits, which are reserved exclusively for export. CIS retailers only receive
these kits 3 months after the original export release.
To be released at the same time:
Amodel 72177 Kh-20M
We are also bumping up
information on the forthcoming 'Iraqi Fighters' book, which will be available in
North America exclusively through Linden Hill. We had the chance to review its
contents before printing and were astounded by the contents. The photographs,
detailed profiles and historical narrative are superlative. Some of the
camouflage schemes and special markings have never before been seen in print. As
a result, Linden Hill will be releasing a series of decal sets to accompany the
book. Releases will be available in 1/72, 1/48 and 1/32 scales. Subject matter
will include a Hunter with kill markings from the 1967 Six Day War, a rare Iraqi
MiG-19, a MiG-21bis in three-tone blue naval strike camouflage, MiG-23s with
unit markings, a 'Saddam Fedayeen' Mirage F-1EQ, an Iraqi Super Etendard and a
number of other exclusives, courtesy of Harpia Publishing. We are planning to
send two new 1/32 sheets to Microscale at the same time; 'Sparki - Russian
Su-27UBs' and 'Post-Soviet Air Forces - Ukrainian Flankers'.
Linden Hill, Ltd. and Harpia
Publishing are delighted to announce the imminent launch of a new book series.
Linden Hill, Ltd. is the exclusive distributor for Harpia Publishing in North
America. The first title is due for release in August 2008.
We are now accepting pre-orders.
'IRAQI FIGHTERS - 1953-2003: Camouflage & Markings'
(HPA 001: $49.90)
Authors: Brig.
Gen. Ahmad SADIK & Tom COOPER
Publisher Harpia Publishing (July 2008)
Summary:
This book provides an exclusive insight into the
service history of 13 fighter jet types - from Vampires and Hunters to
MiG-29s and Su-24s -
which served with Royal Iraqi Air Force (RIrAF) and
Iraqi Air Force (IrAF) between 1953 and 2003.
Serious investigative research, including exclusive primary evidence gathered by
the authors both inside
and outside Iraq, has generated a level of
detail and color of unmatched degree in any previous publications about
any Arab air force.
The result is a detailed history not only of RIrAF and
IrAF markings, serials and camouflage patterns, but also the history of every
Iraqi fighter
squadron, their equipment over the time period in question,
as well as unit and various special insignias.
Richly illustrated with photographs and artwork, the book provides details about
a number of air-to-air and air-to-ground weapons, many put
to the ultimate test only by the Iraqi air force. A list of original names for
air bases used by IrAF is also included.
* 156 pages
* 44 black & white photos
* 96 color photos
* 67 artworks
* size 20 x 28 cm
* softcover

Amonster news. These kits are
supposed to be available by early June. Note the effect of the devalued US
dollar on pre-order prices. The regular retail prices are expected to increase
considerably after another wave of multilateral international postage increases
in May. You have been warned. As ever, big export clients such as Linden Hill
have an exclusive for the first tranche of these limited-run kits. The kits are

releases are now available. These
sheets cover a lot of aircraft and feature much unpublished material! See our
Linden Hill Decals home page for additional
information and pricing.
March 11, 2008
As our regular customers will
no doubt remember, in 2005 Linden Hill Imports was the first retailer outside
Russia to carry Vector products. In 2008
we have been prevailed on to restock the line, which you will find by clicking
on this link. Pretty much the entire line still
in production is now in stock. We're not the only US source for these products,
but we are the cheapest.
March 6, 2008
Round 2 of our rolling
updates. New in stock from our partners at Heliborne:
HCO 72008 Pamir-K
Shock-absorbing seats ($8.00)
Designed by
the renowned NPP Zvezda Company, the makers of the K-36 ejector seat, The Pamir-K
emergency escape system is currently installed in the Mi-28 and Ka-60
helicopters. Heliborne's excellent set of two seats includes pre-assembled
bulkhead panels, thus making installation of the seats even easier.
March 5, 2008
In the meantime, we have
posted previews of three great new resin airliner kits from
RusAir, which arrived today. They are gorgeous.
Tu-204/300
(product code: 144RA03: $79 )
Tu-134A
(product code: 144RA02: $75 )
Check out the
future releases too on our RusAir page.

January 23, 2008
The Scale Bureau Yak-9U is
now sold out. We do not know if or when we will be receiving any more. Sorry.
Next release from
Amodel (March) will be the Mil Mi-6 late version.
January 12, 2008
New from Moscow's
Scale Bureau:
Yak-9U (product code SB 48001)
SB's first
1/48 scale release is the late-war Yak-9U fighter. Since September 2007 this kit has only
been available in Russia.
This new
limited run of the kit has been expertly cast by our partners at
Heliborne. Anyone who has seen this studio's
superlative Ka-50 cockpit set, will understand why Heliborne are considered
among the finest casters of resin kits in the world.
SB kits are
not cheap. This is due mainly to the kit labor-intensive nature of such
hand-made models and the fact the Russian rouble is now a global petro-currency, while
the US dollar isn't...
We will be
posting some images of the parts very soon.
Click
here for a recent review of the model.
The kit
includes decals (produced by Begemot) for four Yak-9Us
*******
Back in stock
is NeOmega's 1/72 MiG-25 cockpit set for the

Two major dilemmas at Linden
Hill Towers this evening. We're running low on Halloween 'treats' (we got wiped
out by what looked like the miniature Munsters early on), and we have no time to
post all the new product we have in one go. We have some great new Yak decals
and books from Ukraine.
And a PVD restock.
We'll catalog what we have (including any new releases) over the weekend.
Here's our first update. We
welcome an excellent new Russian kit manufacturer,
RusAir. Click on the link for more information.
Yak-42D
We will also
shortly be announcing another new Russian kit line. Expect more information in
2/3 weeks...

September 8, 2007
We have received a major
Begemot
restock. The good news is that there are new releases in 1/72, 1/48 and 1/32
scales. The bad news is that, due to Russia's current energy superpower status,
the Russian ruble has appreciated tremendously against the US dollar. This has
necessitated a small price increase on some of the older sheets.
Su-27 Demo Flankers in
1/72 or 1/48 scale
"43 Russian
marking variations of Su-27, Su-27UB, Su-27PD,
Su-27SKM, Su-27KUB, Su-27M(Su-35), Su-30, Su-30MKK, Su-30MKI, Su-30KI, Su-35UB,
Su-37 and two marking variants for Venezuelan AF
Su-30MK2.
Includes two large decal
sheets, one standard size decal sheet and 22-page
instruction booklet ."
September 1, 2007
A couple of restocks from
Max Decals have arrived.
New in 1/48 scale:
August 20, 2007
HCO 48007 Kamov Ka-50
'Hokum' cockpit set ($29.50)
This highly
detailed 1/48 scale resin cockpit set comes complete with canopy painting masks
and highly detailed English-language instructions. We think it's fair to say
that this is one of the most finely detailed resin cockpit sets you will ever
see.
1/48 scale
Ka-50 decals are also still available from Prodecals
August 12, 2007
Linden Hill enters the 21st
Century! We are now able to offer our customers the option of paying via
PayPal.
August 7, 2007
All our Amodel Pe-8 kits from
the first batch are now sold, as is our entire NeOmega Saab Tunnan restock. We
should have our next batch of Pe-8 kits in 2 weeks.
August 5, 2007
We're back and trying to
catch up with a backlog of orders which accumulated in our absence.
NeOmega has resumed production and we finally
received a restock, including the new Fiat G91 'Gina' cockpit in 1/48 scale.
We also have a large restock
of decals from Lift Here! including decals in
1/72 and 1/48 scales for the new Serbian AF MiG-21bis camouflage scheme.
June 21, 2007
70% of the new PVD stock is
gone...
We have also received word
that some of the thinner PVDs will no longer be produced, due to a scarcity
(read; massive price price increase in-line with global prices) of some of the
thinner hypodermic needles in Russia. We will post details of which sets are
slated for retirement soon.
June 20, 2007
We finally had the chance to
post up full stock information on our PVD restock.
For the first time in a couple of years, we actually have every 1/48 scale PVD
in stock simultaneously. As we're sure you know by now, this situation won't
last long, as these rare hand-made pitot tubes disappear very quickly. We also
have most 1/72 scale PVDs also back in stock.
Linden Hill Decals
news: every last sheet of LHD
32001 'Guardians of the North - Arctic Su-27s' is now sold out. The item has
been deleted from our inventory. We still have a few LHD 72007s left.
June 13, 2007
We finally had time to
process the new Equipage items:
Expect price increases from
Equipage soon. The minerals sector may be booming in Russia, but artisans such
as Equipage and PVD are finding it increasingly difficult to acquire the raw
materials for their products at reasonable prices. Exporting has also become
increasingly difficult, with the Russian government implementing de facto export
taxes via the post office.
We will post our latest PVD
inventory over the weekend. Please be warned that a number of 1/72 PVD items
will no longer be produced. Hypodermic needles with a diameter of less than
0.5mm are almost impossible to find in Russia at present.
Back in Stock:
African MiGs (AFRM 01: $75)
Due the painful Euro-dollar
exchange rate, we have been forced to increase the retail price
of this much sought-after privately published book.
This is the last reprint of the book for the foreseeable future.
April 4, 2007
As ever, most of the
restocked PVDs sold over the last day. We have only a few sets lefts now.
New:

(product code: AVRO 002: $24.99)
The new book
from our good friend Valery Romanenko. This 96-page volume features many newly
discovered photos of Soviet P-39K, L and M variants, along with some interesting
pictures from the archives of the Niagara Aerospace Museum regarding the
Lend-Lease delivery of P-39s to the USSR. Includes two pages of 4c profiles, a
four-page section of 4c photos and an A3 sheet of 1/48 scale plans, taken from
Soviet archives. You can find a review here:

1942, through to the liberation of the Crimea in May 1944. A second volume will
chart the 812th's role in the liberation of Europe in the final year of the war.
In addition to be the first VVS air regimental combat history published fully in
English, the book contains 30 full color maps and diagrams, 26 large color scale
profiles and 12 pages of deeply researched scale plans of the Yak fighter
variants flown by the 812th IAP during the time period covered by the book. In
short, it is a must-have volume for anyone interested in the air war on the
Eastern Front.
November 13, 2006
Almost the entire restock of
PVD pitot tubes
has now sold out. All we have left now are a couple of the Su-15 and MiG-21PF
sets.
October 26, 2006
Now in stock from
Condor:
MiG-25PU (CON 72014) $14.95
Only six months late, but the
kit is finally here. Even though the box says 'MiG-25U', it's a PU. The kit
features a new forward nose section and decal options for the USSR/Russia,
Ukraine and India; although the instructions only offer a marking guide for the
VVS machine. Preorders are now closed and the CONUP product code has been
deleted from our system.
October 21, 2006
Good news: We have finally
received an Equipage restock, including new sets for the An-24/26/30 series and
restocks on the much sought-after Tu-16, -22, -22m, -95 and -142 sets. Bad news:
there has been a price increase, although in Equipage's defense, this is the
first major hike since 1999.
October 14, 2006
A few new stock items to

From MiG-19 to MiG-29 - The History of Preschen Airfield to 1994
This is an extremely rare
privately published hardback book on one of the GDR's foremost fighter bases.
Preschen was home over the years to the 3rd 'Vladimir Komarov' Fighter Wing (Jagdfliegergeschwader
and Jagdgeschwader (JG) 3) and the 47th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron
(TAFS-47). Virtually every MiG fighter variant from the 19 to the 29 flew from
this base. The German-language book contains 224 pages and features 327 photos
(100 in color), mostly unpublished and taken from private collections. We were
only able to secure three copies of this great book; buy now to avoid
disappointment. Product code is Preschen. Price is $39.
Moscow's

Russian modeling scene as NeOmega,
VES and Masterclub.
The decal sheet was produced by Begemot and an
Equipage wheel set is included. You can find
more information on this kit on our new

A new line of
periodicals for Linden Hill. Fliegerrevue Extra (FRX) is, to all extents
and purposes, the German-language analog of International Air Power Review. As
with IAPR, FRX is a quarterly journal, profusely illustrated with exclusive
photographs and profiles, covering historical and modern aviation; both military
and civil. What sets FRX apart is the preponderance of features on subjects
close to the bailiwick of Linden Hill! Some of FRX's editorial team clearly have
their roots in the old GDR and each issue contains a large proportion of
articles related to the GDR, USSR, Russia and related Cold War subjects. All
issues listed below are highly recommended.
