Yesterday after two months of sending e-mails and PM I finally got response that the missing parts will be sent. I hope that it won�t take another few months until package arrives. It is really sad that Pontos has problems with fast responding to customer e-mail especially that they sets are one of the best on the market. I can only advise to all forum users that have some trouble with missing parts to be persistent and send reminders. Hopefully Pontos will send response.

As Pontos promised the parts arrived today. Thank you!

keep your English simple and to the point as their grasp of the language isn't great.

I've even wrote them in Korean - without response...

I have send couple of e-mails to your address and private messages through the forum regarding the missing resin parts for 40mm Quad Bofors with mk-51 directors (6pcs) an 5inch/25 single AAguns (8pcs) in Advanced Plus Set for CA-35 . However as yet there was no reply.

I apologize for posting it here but it looks like all other options to communicate with Pontos are not working.

Could you contact me through pm to solve this problem?

Thanks,

Don't bother... Pontos does not respond to any form of communications, unfortunately. I left them like at least 5 e-mails and couple of PM. Also tried to get answer through forum - without luck.

What is the best type of glue to use when applying the stainless steel decks? CA, epoxy or contact cement? Also, is it best to remove the molded on anti- skid from the kit decks?
Thanks, Jon

So it seems like the Trumpeter detail kit is not going to come out. Has anyone tried to use the Academy detail set with the Trumpeter Indy? I ask because I got a pretty good deal on a Trumpeter 1945 Indy before really comparing it to the Academy version. I want to use the Pontos advanced set but not sure if it will fit, especially the PE nonslip surfaces. Would it be more worth it to sell the Trumpeter on ebay and just buy the Academy version? Thanks for any suggestions!

Next year, we will share much time for the variation sets as some Detail sets for Warspite, Dreadnought and indy for Trumpeter kits.

Thank you
Kim
Worth the wait or it's already obsolete?

Warspite/Dreadnought would not be cancelled.
But Indianapolis of Trumpeter has serious main turret and some other kit problems.
So this indianapolis detail set may be hard to be released.

Thank you

Hello SH Park and Kim:

Thanks so much for sharing your masterful work with the group. Your work is truly outstanding both as a modeler and a Photoetcher. Your group photo from May 2013 says it all.
I look forward to purchasing a set for my recently purchased Academy Indianapolis and seeing it through completion.

Best wishes for continued success

Thank you so much for such a quick reply. Could you please transfer to Mr. Kim our congratulations with a really GREAT model from Russian modellers?
Maybe he will kindly make small master-class for weathering & painting technics for all of us?
