JimRice Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I was just looking around trying to find anything on the new Revell P-51D in 1/32 when I ran across this post. I was seriously considering a Tamiya P-51D, but may just wait on the Revell release later this year. I gotta save some coin as I've been paying for my daughters wedding on Sept 30. And I thought airplanes were expensive... Big Texan, Uncarina and LSP_K2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FCM Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 (edited) In moments of low pockets, there are some possible new releases with very few changes. Revell could reborn their JU-88 (currently both kits out of catalog) as new kits of JU-88 C and S variants, using the main frame of JU-88A-4 kit...

Tony T Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 In moments of low pockets, there are some possible new releases with very few changes.

The Ju 88 A-4 is in their catalogue as the new electronc version with spinnng propellers and twinkly lights. Agree that (in common with their 1/72 pattern) Revell should release a neu variant: Ju 88 C-6 nachtjager, which would entail only a few minor changes and additions, and consider a G series.

Starfighter Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Still no Super Hornet news, not even some proper photos of the sprues... otis252 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 There were sprue photos not long ago, listed on Hannants for a November release. LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starfighter Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 The only sprue shots I know were really bad with no visible surface detail... I doubt it'll be released in November as we haven't even seen an assembled test shot yet. Don't get me wrong, I'm not in a hurry, I'd just love to actually see what we're going to get.

Andreas Beck Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 The project is proceeding and the latest ts is an improvement but still some steps to be done. Release this year is more than doubtful. I think it will take some time before pictures can be released.

DeanKB Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 are people desperate for a ju88 kit, i have 2 of the original ones, that i couldnt sell last year I'll have them! The He111 kits are particularly pricey, around the £75 mark. But that's a lot of plastic, even at that money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starfighter Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 As we have seen (bad) pics of the shots, the moulds are made. Sounds like debugging issues to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wunwinglow Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Yep. Just tweaking the gates to make sure the cavities fill reliably, and possibly polishing out any rough spots. Fat lady already through the second chorus, in other words. MikeC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
