Archimedes Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) My Wish List for 2023 (all in 1/32) That Kotare do really well with their Spitfire and release a fabric-wing Hurricane Mk1 to book-end it That we see a new tool P51B from a manufacturer that cares about accuracy Someone releases a Schweizer 2-33A so that I don't have to scratch-build one There is a release of a Blenheim MkIV There is a surprise release of 1/32 airfield vehicles: Hucks Starter, AEC Matador, Austin K2Y, Willys Jeep, Queen Mary trailer But most of all I wish for the time to build the kits that I have already bought! I need to increase my build speed beyond one kit a year!

LSP_K2 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I've intended for the longest time to do a compiled (and condensed) version of this list, as many of the items asked for here have indeed come to pass. Coincidence? I think not. Perhaps I'll soon take a stab at doing just that, assuming I can actually remember. My biggest problem will probably be to weed out what I deem as totally unrealistic requests, ideas that are highly unlikely to ever see the light of day. Then again, I might also include them, not real sure there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutik Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Would nice someone would make an A-37B Dragonfly in styrene. An A-37B would be a megaseller, used by countries around the world in many markings and camouflages. HK Model, Special Hobby, Trumpeter, Hobby Boss, are you listening? And a nice Avia BH-5 from HPH models. Regards - dutik Stefano, thierry laurent and Archimedes 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeC Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Avia B.534, with options and/or alternative boxings for all four major variants. To go with that, a Hawker Fury. And anything that includes "DH" and "Moth" in its title. Well, a chap can dream ... Archimedes and Paul in Napier 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a box or another pops up here and there at Ebay or elsewhere. Regards - dutik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking that if anyone would ICM would. Maybe one day. Archimedes and Paul in Napier 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini_Man Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 A Ta152C and a Ar234B! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamR Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Hellcat, please! F6F-3, -5, either, or both. Whether by Tamiya or Hasegawa, this inexplicable omission by the two champions of 1/32 still tops my wish list to be filled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlamoSnep Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Tamiya 1/32 P-47D and P-38J. MikeC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavel Vacek Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) All 1/32 B-26 Marauder Blenheim MC.202 (still waiting for any news from Italeri) Baltimore Maryland SM.79 Edited January 13 by Pavel Vacek Some new ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jager Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 An accurate, interior included, well detailed 1/32 Kaman H43B Huskie. It's lineage from the first turbine powered helicopter, Kaman Ka-225 thru the rotary engined HOK. Not to mention the intermeshing rotors technology from Anton Flettner. Flettner became an chief engineer for Kaman who came to this country via Operation Paperclip. Between the H43B and the latest incarnation of the intermeshing rotor system, K-Max, this is a historical helicopter that should be available to we Rotorheads.

Grissom Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 For me (and not in any particular order) it would be a Pilatus PC-21, a Lockheed S-3 Viking, a bubble-top Hawker Typhoon, an F111 with the option of C, E and G variants, a SEPECAT Jaguar and, for something completely left-of-centre, an Augusta/Leonardo AW-139 helicopter. Oh well, dreams are for free! As an aside, I wish each and every one of you a safe, happy and productive 2023. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonlemmy@yahoo.com Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Why on earth can’t we get a new Griffon engined Spitfire or Seafire??? KiwiZac 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssculptor Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I'd like to see more World War One Aircraft produced in 1/32 scale. I prefer the multi-engine aircraft. How about the intresting pre-WW1 aeroplanes? And all those most interesting civil and military aircraft of the 1920 to 1930's? Let's not forget the biplane float and flying boats. To me the only solution is to go back to kit-bashing and scratch building. On a personal note Jeff Roberts has his Combat Models Company up for sale. The whole shebang is up for sale. That includes the vacuforming machinery, the molds (forms or whatever you want to call them), plans, small parts forms, canopy forms, some sheets of plastic, some shipping boxes, etc. Jeff will train the buyer on the operation of the vacuform machine and on the procedures he used to run his business. Because of declining health he wants to sell it all. If you are seriously interested contact Jeff. Jeff Roberts Combat Models 83 South Pine Street Hazelton, Pennsylvania, 18201 call him at 570 450 5647 Happy New Year to us all, Stephen Paul in Napier 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark B. Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 Looking back on what I put down in 2011 most of them came to fruition in one from or another. Except for the British Phantoms. I would still like to see a P-51B/C Mustang done by either Hasegawa or the Revell team that did the Revell P-51D. Also a P-51A Mustang done by Hasegawa or Revell.
