Just so irritating that he won't accept pre-orders -

Awesome Peter, I will be setting the alarm clock here in Australia for when you go live with this. My all time dream kit! -

How about LSP members who have followed and commented on this thread get an hours notice before it goes live for everyone else?🤫 Cheeky I know but being in Australia I really don't want to miss out😀 -
I voted for the Hs 126 as like others here I think an IM kit will eventually come. How about a Firefly, Fisher nearly had one before the master was burnt down and you have already completed much research into the subject.

Like others here this has always been my dream kit. Were you to ask for a list of interested parties, even requiring a deposit I will be first on the list!! Thanks Brent -
I indeed did get the MPM torpedo version A. I have had to fill a big hole in the body and one fin was broken along with 3 prop blades missing, (easily fixed). MPM is a "mom and pop" manufacturer and with some TLC the torpedo will look fine though it ain't no Eduard or Airscale item. Once you have seen the difference between Trumpeter and MPM it can't be unseen. Photos show that the "fatty" looks more accurate

I recently purchased a 3d printed torpedo for the Trumpy TBD, mostly to avoid seam elimination. When it arrived I noticed that it was "fatter" than the Trumpeter item. Wickepedia states the Mk 13 was 57 centimetres wide. The 3d printed item scales exactly to this an just under 18 millimetres. The torpedo included with the Avenger is much closer to 18 millimetres. So the question is, we're early versions ( I'm doing Midway) of the Mk 13 slimmer? Any answers would be welcome. Cheers Brent

I doubt it would be a Defiant as many dislike the airframe but imagine that turret in 1/24th!! They would have my money in a heartbeat!!!

Good choice, should be a solid seller both for us diehards and the new to the hobby people. Hurricane would be the next obvious release and then to round out the BoB single engine fighters a Defiant (yeah, I know that won't happen but a man can dream!)
