Wow this kit is insane. Really shows how advanced plastic models can be if given resources

I don't often comment, nor do I build as often as I would like anymore. I just wanted to say thanks for the solid content and that one of the few kits I'll likely build in the near future will be one of these. It is amazing to see how far progress has come some of my 70's kits I find at my local store. As a follower for quite a while it has been awesome to see the hobby and your hand in it grow.

The single molded fuselage and engine are insane, what every modeler has been dreaming of. The detail is evolving so rapidly we'll probably be seeing individual ammo of spent uranium tank busting shells. There have been 3 aircraft in military history that were perfect, Two still being used and will outlive me , A10, and B52 We asked for more A-1 Skyraiders in SEA, and the manufacturer couldn't comply. Academy hit the ball out of the park on this kit. I need a new note book for wish list if Andy continues with these videos.

That looks incredible. That's going to be a big money maker for Academy.

Goals for 23, Academy F-4 and well I guess now the A-10 . My 2 fav jet aircraft.

Andy, you are my idol when it comes to a small business owner/developer. Keep up the great work catering us Modelers.

My favorite airplane as a kid, and I've seen them fly at my local air show. Those big engines have a very distinctive whining sound.

The first jet I learned inside-out on DCS - have been waiting for a decent modern tooling for so long! Now this and the new AH-64Ds come along at once. It's basically a dream come true.

Words are not needed, nor would they do this model justice. It is a thing of beauty.

woW, what a amazing & outstanding kit!!! I wish they would introduce a 1/35th scale version😔....

Andy,that is one freaking kit,Academy have just pushed the limit for other manufacturers to follow.Merry Christmas to you and your family

Incredible model. Many thanks for all your videos this year. They have sparked my interest in modelling again. Have a great Christmas

Wow! I’m trying to build the old Revell 1/48 A-10 right now, and I’m about ready to throw it at the wall! This new Academy kit looks beautiful!

That is a sweet looking kit . The A-10 has always been one of my favorite aircraft . Hope to pick one of these up when you get them .

They REALLY RAISED The Bar w The 1 Piece Fuselage and Nacelles Alone. Thanks For Sharing Andy. Merry Christmas To You and All Yours 🤗🤗 God Bless All 👍👍 Gary.

Another must have kit!😮 You and your family and your staff have a merry Christmas and a safe and healthy New Year.🎅🏻🎉🎇🎆😊

What a well designed kit! Also love the pre cut masks. If the engineering is as good as the first impression and it fit’s well than this is an awesome kit!

Wow, that's some next level engineering! Pretty excited about this beautiful Hog!

She looks superb! I’ll be adding two of those to the stash.😎👍🏻

Beautiful kit. Might have to get one for my back log. thanks for the great content and Merry Christmas!

This kit looks amazing. Can’t wait to pick it up!

Hi Andy, now I know what I will get myself for a Happy New Year gift, when it is released here in Australia, it looks to be a very nice kit and a decent version of this is well over due, I would like to wish you and your family and staff a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New year, best regards from Australia.

I love it already, this kit gets my juices flowing and it will make live much eazier for modelers. I have Just finished building the Italeri 1/48 scale Hog and it was sometimes a nightmare to construct ( enginehousing, cockpit and hull) I will buy this kit for sure !!!

Gonna have to pick this up, beautiful looking kit of a beautiful plane.

Happy Holidays to you and yours, Andy!

Looking like a really nice kit. 👍 Next thing ya know, the bomb racks will have adjustable stabilizers on em.

That plane looks so amazing ! I definitely have to purchase and build one day

Brrrrrrrt!

Wow this is a nice looking kit. Andy I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and a great safe and blessed New Year!

Mind. Blown. This is amazing.

I’ll be picking that up .😊

This is what the 1/32nd Trumpeter kit should look like 🙄 Fingers crossed that someone will make a 1/32nd A10 in this same style

I will get that one in place of the other kits out there. Looks superb.

Damn. Thanks Andy. Looks like one hell of a great kit. They’re really perfecting the slide molding. Between this and your 1/16 tanks I’m going to be in the dog house with my wife. Don’t stop. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Finally an accurate C model cockpit! Shut up I'm in.

adding this to my stash as soon it becomes available. Thanks for the awesome preview!!!

Great kit Andy, thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing these early shots. Interesting molding and the details look promising. Hope Academy makes it to Europe quickly...

A-10 Warthog is my favorite military aircraft. And although I don't usually do 1/48, this is a buy for sure in the future. Love the one piece fuselage and engines.

I WANT IT! Great vid Andy as usual. Keep em coming I'll keep watching.

How many fantastic new kits can come out at one time?? Wow!!

The decal of this kit is excellent

Academy seem to have really upped their game with this kit. I had them pegged as a pretty average kit manufacturer given their older kits with fit and detail issues. This looks a "must have" kit and I look fwd to getting and building one.

Looking forward to this kit! Have been planning to convert the old HobbyBoss Hawg to a C-model, but this seems like a much better option. Will be putting in an order for one from you as soon as it comes available.

Super looking model nice details Andy have a great Xmas and a happy new year to you and your family Steve

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year ✨🎉🎁🦃

About time we got an a-10c kit!

Thanks for sharing!! Have to get this one!!

Good stuff Andy!... have a good Xmas and New Year mate🎅... cheers from down under 👍🇳🇿

Must have kit Andy. Thanks for the review. Greetings from Sweden.

I will be getting this kit. I have been wanting to build an A-10. And our pal and Model Geek, Darrin Cook advised me to wait for this one. Nice job on the preview, Andy. Merry Christmas to you, Denise and the Boys.

Good lord!! Thunderbolt and Lightning!!!!

Can't wait to have this one, looks really nice

*sighs and makes more room on the A-10 shelf, currently occupied by two of Tamiya's old birds*

Nice Kit but still need Andy's Hand.

Thanks Andy I need too spend more money 💴 and get 2 👍😁

Holy Wow! I just took my jewelry loupe to the instrument panel and I couldn’t believe I found a microscopic aluminum plate which says “NO FOOD OR DRINKS IN COCKPIT” it’s in the middle right above the working ashtray

If the Academy 1/35 UH-1Y is engineered this way its going to be amazing!!!

Looking good

Looks good wonder how it will compare to GWH A-10C to be released in 2023

I'm currently building the old Tamiya A-10A. This Academy kit....yea, it's a bit better. I'll have to pick this up down the road!

Looks like a nice kit! 👍👍

impressive molding and engineering

Thats Amazing

Now that looks like a great kit. If Scalemates is to believed, it is very reasonably priced at under £40 in the UK.

Always wanted to build an A10... :)

love the one piece fuselage

Great looking kit.

Wow absolute fantastic Kit. Thanks for the Review. Have a nice Xmas! 🎄🌠🙏🏻

Nice looking kit, I like Academy kits.

I wish all manufacturers included die cut masks with their kits!!!!

I woul have liked it in 35 or 32 but its a beautiful kit for the 48 guys.

The single-piece engine nacelles sold me!

It has defeated the Hobbyboss, Revell and Italeri boxings. Hobbyboss has got as model fan blade issue but other than that its ok. This Academy kit will blow competition away. I am currently building two Revell ones and repainting my old Tamiya A-10. All have the LASTE upgrades.

I want this kit!

Great video!

It would be cool to see some aircraft builds on the channel in the new year. Maybe this one.

Really nice, But now I hear Gwh is coming out with one too. I probably buy both as the A10 is a favorite of mine.

Hi Andy it looks like a great kit I am building the Hobby boss A-10c which is a good kit to. the Academy A-10c looks much more better and I do like the slide moulding. it is very interesting how they've gone about making it. I do know Great Wall hobbies I was making a A-10 as well interesting how they do this

Box art appears incorrect. The A-10C does not have the Pave Penny pod but it's a great looking kit. Looks better than the Hobby Boss A-10C I'm building at the moment. Great review Andy

Nice looking kit. Will have to add one to the stash. Love the one piece engine cowls. It does look like the fan blades will sit to far forward like other A-10s. Is there a way to check that?

Gwh has a a-10c coming out soon as well. The model companies under cutting each other but that's good us modrlers!

The top of the main fuselage does have a light parting line down the Center

WOW. Look out Tamiya. I feel like this kit sets a new standard. Cant wait to get this in my mediocre model building hands

They've got my money

one piece moulding 🙌😍

What I think would be a neat idea is to provide the cockpit panels as flat blank "bases" and include a dedicated cockpit decal set from Quinta or Red Fox. You have to think that most folks buying this kit would want to at least paint and provide some detail to the aircraft. This would eliminate the need for the modeler to chisel off the dials, switches, screens etc. so they could quickly detail the cockpit without that drudgery. Just a thought.

I've wanted to see a new tool A-10 kit for a long time, and I may just have to grab this if I can guarantee a spot for it given the size, hah

looking forward to comparison with GWH

Felicidades desde la República Dominicana

Any update andy on wether or not you'll carry TAKOMS 1/35 Apache? Or GREAT WALL HOBBIES 1/48 A-10? Can't wait for the Apache

Looks like it will have the same problem with the intake fans in the Monogram one, too forward on the nacelles.

가슴이 웅장해집니다

What type of clear coat do you use on your tank models?

Academy kits are proudly made in South Korea and they are prominent model kits in the world. Obviously this a-10 is no exception. Great job.

The G sprue looked to be the only one that says A-10C, the rest just say A-10, fingers crossed an A is coming.

When will the kit be available in your store?

Put me down for one of these!!! I WANT!!!

wow this kit looks awesome so far cnt wait to get this on my bench and review it

Damn !!! Another A10 i gotta buy!! Thanks.
