WNW Fokker DVII in different boxings - I think two of every boxing they did of it? I really bought into the "limited run" nature that they had said initially on their kits. At least I have built two of them and two more underway lol....

I would still be onboard for more Beau improvement items for the old kit. Even if the new kit is a guaranteed gonna-happen I feel like it will be years till it hits the shelves right?

Oh that looks amazing. Been a top want of mine forever and not one I thought we would ever see in 1/32 but now that it is here just not sure I would be able to swing the price tag sadly. I guess we shall see. Maybe the Bank wont mind if I skip a mortgage payment?

Wow that is a good deal for a nice kit. Lordy I wish Hasegawa was still doing kits like this; basic with few bells and whistles, but good shapes, reasonable surface detail and a great platform for aftermarket if one wants more detail and affordable...

Well, maybe: 1. they are also doing these kits in 1/32 so one has a choice? 2. 1/24 has kind of been out there for a long time as a scale for aviation subjects? 3. 1/24 feels like a logical step up for those who want to build EVEN MORE BIGGER

Having tried to improve the Trumpeter kit cockpit area and still being unsatisfied with it, I would say Hasegawa personally despite the age of the kit and lack of detail. The airfix looks good though - I have been holding out for a conversion to a dash three to build it myself but may give in and do as a dash-5

AOA Decals has a A-6B from this squadron on their sheet "Intruders from the Sea" 32-009.

Wow - fantastic build and finish - love it! You mentioned some issues with fit and that if you build another you would go about it differently - just curious if you could expand on that? I like to keep notes on future builds I am planning and the P-38 is one of those....

oh wow sign me up for this one! Curious - will his P-40N be included?

fantastic build here - looks fantastic and congrats to bringing to completion! The weathering effects are top notch as well

Really fantastic result here - love this so much! I wish we could see some other large WW2 aircraft with nose section kits like this. B-24, B-29 maybe a B-52....

Ah missed this - Cybermodeler has some good pics on a walkaround but looks like you got it! Hoping we might see aftermarket cowling vents...

Really fantastic build and diorama of this old kit - great result! Always loved the old Hase F6F - feels like they could just retool those old moulds to have a little better surface details and it would hold up to modern releases pretty well....

All amazing subjects and glad to hear

Definitely agree with that - I LOVE the instruction sheet/drawing that come with the kits - the Gee Bee Z in particular was a favorite. I have a very old boxing of that kit now I want to dig it out lol....

yeah I would throw in to pre-order or "kick-start" production of the Kate....

Very nice build and great finish - love what you have done here. I still have great fondness for the Williams Brothers kits - still great racers and unusual subjects even now

The Top Notch masks look good - I had not been aware of them prior - thank you for sharing that link

True - and since we are seeing some really good aftermarket options for it so I am good with that On the other hand there is no shortage of aftermarket available for the 1/32 Tamiya P-51D either so hard to say

eh, I would say any thread posted to LSP has at least a 50 percent chance of becoming a wish list thread

Looks fabulous but again I am thankful it is not a must have to drag me into 1/16 tank models (an early M3 Stuart or Grant however might do it)

Voted Val but would be very interested to see some WW2 single-seater options as well (or is the plan to stick to multis?) Either way looking forward to more sets!

wow! that is looking fantastic, though I have to start to wonder if it wouldn't be easier to offer the whole fuselage as a printed piece since almost all is modeled in 3D now

Any updates on progress with this conversion kit?

dang-it you just sold me a Devastator kit - I wasn't gonna pick it up but this pit set really sells it. Very interested to see what other sets you do in 1/32. If I may suggest, I know its a old kit but the 1/32 Trumpeter Wildcat is a pretty good kit and there isn't much aftermarket out there anymore for it.
