RBrown Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 The kit appears to be designed for development beyond the bomber types... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 There was talk of it evolving into a Ju 88 C-6 night fighter Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 The C-6 would be great for me and they have a nice radial now that the Fw-190 kit is out and... Pastor John has completed his cool conversions. The stars are just about in alignment for a new offer in styrene. Rick Alburymodeler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Oh yea, a night fighter !.........Harv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seiran01 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Last I heard from the rumor mill was they're doing a c2 or c6 in 2016, have heard no whispers of a later model 88 yet but they'd be crazy to not do a g6, it'd likely be a hot seller.

kalashnikov-47 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I have the AIMS G-6 conversion. About 5 minutes after I finish that model, Revell will announce that variant for 2016. mywifehatesmodels and D Bellis 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssculptor Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Seeking an answer to this question of earth shaking importance I visited Madam Zelda, who knows all, sees all and, if you cross her palm with silver she will tell all. Madam Zelda, a genuine Gypsy from Jersey (New Joisey dat is, ya bum ya) cranked up her crystal ball, the motor started with a low rumble and vibrations of the table, thunder and Lightning crashed about the room an and a disembodied voice seemed to come out of nowhere, saying, "What? Ya tink I know the future? Are ya nuts?" and I ended up in on the street sitting in a mud puddle. Well the Joisey Gypsy cannot help answer your question, But I think that Revell will release a night fighter version with radar antennae all over the place, just like their reissue of the Me-110 many years ago. .

LSP_K2 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I still need to tackle the A-4, and I now need to also get the kit, as I was forced to sell my example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, that was the rumour I heard - a 1/32 version of this, which is a natural evolution of the A-4 with minimum change... Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mywifehatesmodels Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I have the AIMS G-6 conversion. About 5 minutes after I finish that model, Revell will announce that variant for 2016. Same with me and the 188 (of which there was also a rumor about, a year or two ago?). John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Clunkmeister Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Quick, somebody please scratch build one or do a vac. That'll ensure we get a C-6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegallacci Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 My favs would be a 'G nightfighter and '388. Have a big tail patterned. There is a '388 converstion that I may seek out, especially to avoid the "fun" of doing the canopy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Between AIMS and CMK it's already possible to do a C-2, although the r/h windshield pane replacement is not easy (a pain) and I'd prefer an all-up Revell C-6 any day. And an R-1 or -2 etc might be doable based on the Fw 190 engine moulds (was the cowling much different ?) If you are alive long enough I believe a G-series will come along eventually. However, we really need a new tool Beaufighter VI.f and Me 110 G-4, to replace the early 1970s Revell editions.

RBrown Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 A C-6 makes sense, minimal tooling changes coupled with lots of interesting camouflage options. And, as this Hasegawa box art demonstrates, the C-6 definitely had some interesting camouflage schemes. leoasman and Alburymodeler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
