Well since this is a wish list, and who am I to determine what will sell. In no particular order;

 

F-101B voodoo (number I'd purchase 1)

F-11 tiger (1)

RN/RAF (1)

Spitfire mk v, xiv( I have a total of 15 Tamiya 1:32 spitfire so 10 or more)

Typhoon (2)

Hurricane (1 of each major variant)

Nieuport 17 (1 or 2 WNW only)

Fokker dr 1 (1 WNW only)

Sopwith camel (1 WNW only)

Canadair F-86 (4)

Mosquito (1 or 2)

 

 

I'd like all of these in top quality mainstream injection molded plastic. I'll pay current premium model prices for any of these kits.

Hi - I know it's been done to death, but this is serious research for a model company.

 

Could you let me know your top 'wants' - bearing in mind that since this was last done, several have been released or are forthcoming.  I don't have time to trawl through hundreds of threads looking for what's already been said...

 

It doesn't matter if it's really obscure.

 

What I really need to know (and bearing in mind that many of you are a lot older than me (36)) are the subjects that modellers have been waiting years for.

 

Do you think your choices are commercially viable / potentially profitable and why?

 

I will leave this thread up for a couple of weeks, and also post a similar one on other sites, then I will collate all the data and fire it off to the relevant person for discussion

 

Thanks very much in advance!
