Juggernut Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 haha! Great news indeed! I cannot wait for these kits to be released, it will be a great day for all of us (and a bad day for my wallet). Welcome back! Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnarg Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Thank you for your hard work to make these happen. We understand your silence and appreciate it if these are the result. The only problem is how to get the cash and the space for all of these. Way too much fun. Whatever you make on that list will interest me, but I really would like a Doolittle B-25 and any B-26 you can create. Tnarg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allok Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Well, I turn my computer off for a few hours and this happens! That'll teach me for trying to get some sleep. Welcome back Martin and let us know when the website is up so we can all check it out. That's a nice bunch of planes you've got planned, I am now officially a WINGXL customer. Yay!

Propwash Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Dear all, In the last few months I have seen a lot of questions on the forums, regarding the future of Wingscale and its models. For me these months were a road full of surprises, disappointments, but also many highlights. Your support on the forums was a big support, for which I truly thank you all! Ideas can be taken away........but a dream cannot and will forever stay! Unfortunately my past situation made it not a wise decision, to respond on all the discussions and questions. I hope you all will forgive me for that. That is until now! I would like to inform you about the situation of Wingscale. First of all the name Wingscale and mother company have been deleted and both will NOT be used anymore. Last week I finalized the definite sale of my plastic injection molding company. The new business model with new suppliers I needed to sort out has been finalized and accomplished already as well. A new company has been established with a new brand: WINGXL. From August 1st, I will be focusing 100% on WINGXL! And our WINGXL team is glad to be back! WINGXL will proceed with the following kits in 1/32 scale: • North American B-25 C/D Mitchell • Douglas A-26 Invader • Douglas A-20 Havoc • Martin B-26 Marauder • Northrop P-61 Black Widow • Lockheed Hudson • Bristol Beaufighter • De Havilland Mosquito Please note these are listed in random order and not according release dates. Besides the B-25, the specific versions of the other kits are not mentioned. Also the pictures on our website are chosen in general, we haven’t yet revealed which versions are to come or the timeframe for these releases. I think everybody will understand why. In the coming few months, when appropriate, I will keep you all informed about progress of WINGXL and its kits. Each kit will be produced in a limited quantity of 10.000. Depending on how many major different versions are possible (general abt. 2-3), minimal every 2-3 years constructional revised versions will be released, also in limited quantities. WINGXL kits will NOT appear re-boxed by other manufacturers later on. We will respect the true limited character of above mentioned kits. Which retailers will remain in the WINGXL structure, will be decided oncoming time. To prevent unnecessary workload for the retailers, for now just communicate directly with WINGXL please. Which price level we can offer, will be decided at the appropriate time too. Regarding the price level we off course will do our best to maintain the previous one. You can ensure a place on the list for above mentioned items. Please sent an email to: on-list@wingxl.nl Then you will receive a standard autoreply that your interest of maybe ordering one later has been received and you will have been put on the list. For other communication please use: info@wingxl.nl Hoping to have informed you all herewith, I remain, Martin Oude Vrielink WINGXL Many thanks for the update, Martin. I knew you'd find a way out of this dilemma. All the powers that be can't keep a good man with a great idea down for long. I was slightly disappointed that there was no B-17 on the list, but from my standpoint, this exclusion is compensated for by the addition of a Lockheed Hudson (another personal favorite of mine). Keep up the good work. Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Sheep One Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 OUTSTANDING! Best of luck and Godspeed with your new company. AWESOME! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 With the possible exception of the Hudson, I will take 1 of ALL of those on your list. Cheers, Brian I call dibs on Brian's Hudson! You have no idea how much I've wanted one of those kits, and it will be so great in 1/32!!!! And the P-61, Beaufighter, A-20, an A-26!!!! Those will all be great, and it's awesome to finally see someone do a new-tool Mosquito. Martin, it's so good to see the company coming back, I was fearing that you wouldn't be coming back to our hobby. This really made my day!
