It looks like this kit will be hitting the market in record time! The decals look good. I will stay out of any good lozenge /bad lozenge opinions.Thanks for posting,

I would guess that there are many common parts with the Dr.I kit.
Otherwise it's a bit of an obscure choice.

I'll pick one up because I've always liked the type.
Now if Roden were to do the rumoured SE5A--that really would be something.
Cheers

Thanks,
I'm used to a forum where deletion is permitted.
Anyway, this morning I pre-ordered the D.VI kit.
Roden should be encouraged to keep going in 1/32nd.
The D.VI will make me happy though.
Cheers
Sandy

My only complaint about the lozenge, since I'm not too much of a stickler for slight shade differences would be that Roden only included 4 color lozenge. Most, if not all D.VI's had their wings and fuselages covered at different times, covering the swap betwen 4 and 5 color lozenge. So, most D.VI's had 5 color lozenge on the wings and 4 color on the fuselages.

Have to agree, after Roden "fixed" the 1/48, makes sense to go along with what obviously seems to be a shift in increasing their 1/32 line
