I hope your pipe dream is not a pipe dream.  While I wanted and expected a Hurricane from Kotare, in light of the 109k we are getting the Hurricane earlier than I expected.  However I would hope also the Wildcat and hellcat are on their to do list also.  Based upon their recent interview, I believe they intend to speed things up a little on their releases.  It will be gradual though as the have to go slow on adding staff to design the kits so they don't go broke trying to do too much too fast.

They might move to the Pacific theatre before too long…

Well, I'm fully understanding their decision even if I'm not really thrilled because I have more or less ten 1/32 Hurricanes in my stash (old Revell, new Revell, PCM and Fly). Nonetheless, I will get at least one or two kits to support them. I hope this should help them to release something a little bit less 'mainstream'...

Could be quite a few in swap and online sales now…

Dogfight double…. (Yes that IS a spoof boxing)

Wow- I was thinking yesterday if they went to two engines the old Dragon will get knocked out of the sky

At last an early Hurricane to go with their early Spitfire, I hope they continue with the metal wing Mk1.

I wonder if this means we get an early 109. Late Spit or 190. Then Stuka as wild card? Then off to the Pacific we go…

Say, hold on a sec, what about their Typhoon everyone thinks they’ll make …. 🤔

I think only the PCM kit is an early fabric wing Hurricane, and good luck finding those on the market.

I know but I guess we will possibly get 10 boxings.

Oh yeah forgot Typhoon…so replace that beast with late Spit to shoot down the Kurfy. Or have it as the wildcard

No hurry, I got stuff to do until next year, but then I will buy some Kotare Hurricanes. I particular like the bulbous spinner on the Hurricane btw. What variant was that?

Later Mk Is had a rather bulbous Rotol spinner and prop. Some have suggested it was the same spinner as that used on the Mk II Spitfire, as the diameter was slightly too large for the Hurricane nose.

I notice the kit numbering system is following the traditional WNW system too.

…..and once the Hurricane is done they’ll keep with the Sidney Camm theme and do a Fury, a Hart, a Demon…..
