Description

This is a paintable 1:144 scale model of a Fokker E.V, later known as a Fokker D.VIII. Since many painters choose their own mounting system, no peg is included on the plane. Pegs can be purchased separately in the Accessories section of this catalog.

The Fokker D.VIII or E.V (as it was variously called) combined the strong, unbraced upper wing of the Fokker D.VII with a 110hp rotary engine to create a handy, maneuverable plane with great sight lines for the pilot. The first six E.V planes were rushed to the front for combat evaluation with Jasta 6. Shortages of castor oil and wing failures led to their temporary withdrawal on 21 August. Adjustments were made to the wing and the type was cleared for combat in late October, but by this time the renamed D.VIIIs had a few scant weeks to show their prowess, and they may have never flown combat missions in their “rebranded” form.

The model is offered in different materials. See the FAQ for a comparison of the different material choices. In the Shipping tab, please note the increased shipping costs for an order with mixed materials.

Shipping:  Shipping varies from about US$7 to US$15 per order, depending on the destination country.  See your cart for an exact number — the prices may vary with currency fluctuations.  Orders over US$300 may get free shipping (but see the note on mixed materials).

Mixed Materials:  Nylon prints are shipped from a different factory than resin prints, so if you place an order with a mix of Nylon and Resin, you will be charged shipping for each material, and each will arrive separately.

Taxes:  Sales tax — where applicable — will be added for U.S. shipments.  Value-added taxes (VAT) may (or may not) be collected by your postal carrier on receipt, which is known as “Delivery At Place”.  Unfortunately, since my printing and shipping partner has no way of marking shipments as VAT-paid, this website cannot collect VAT on your behalf.

Customs:  Most orders should be small enough to avoid customs duties, but you may want to check your local regulations.  If duties are due, they may be collected by your postal carrier.  E.U. customers may be able to avoid duties by keeping their order under €150.
