Ouch, what is the status of the WnW Harry Tate RE.8? still out of production or likely to be produced again?

The Re8 is, I think a very much coveted WNW kit. As to production status, it is sold out, and there are no indicators it will be back in another iteration. Of course, WNW released TWO Felixstowe flying boats with not even a blip on the radar, and brought the W. 29 back into production at the same time. Anyones guess at this point. If you want a DVII, get it now, and go to WNW home page to get the specific factory sprue to do a particular version, then you have it. If you want a Roland, start searching the web stores to find one in stock.

Well, I got mine.

I got into the habit of buying each as they were issued. Some I skipped as I had the Rodin or other manufacturer's version. I skipped most of the Fokker D-7's. I got one and that was good enough. 

I will skip the Camel as I have a half dozen of the other manufacturer's versions.

Obviously I do not worship details.

Oh dear, that's me out again, as that was my second favourite after the Albatros and on sober reflection I don't wish to buy rereleases in triple boxings, assuming it reemerges in that fashion.

 

But I'll enjoy seeing them built by others

This is an aspect of the hobby that cheeses me off. You find yourself buying Wingnut Wings kits because they may disappear in the future, which - given time -  turns into a self-fulfilling prophesy. I've fallen for it, massively, and find myself with 58 Wingnut Wings kits. Fifty bloody eight!

 

Takes me 3-6 months to build one, so that's somewhere between approximately 15-29 years worth. And that's including 3 Felixstowe's and a couple of Gotha's, which will undoubtedly take far longer. Not to mention the other 154 kits. Plus associated after-market, and I buy any and all after-market available.

 

I like Silver Wings kits. Superb little resin kits, very little clean-up required, great fit, great subjects. I've ended up with 14 of them. I've got a dozen 109's. And I don't even like 109's.
