Tony T Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I love these Kittyhawk developments - I just wish the same scale typo had applied to the Gripen and Mirage F.1 ! Tony Vandy 1 VX 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaninaustria Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 This is the best news in a long time!! Glen, thank you! Being a former seaplane pilot I love anything with floats on it!! a Helldiver in 1/32 would be another dream come true!! Glen, when can we expect to see the Kingfisher hit the market (roughly)? Thanks again! Damn excited about our hobby again thanks to KH!!! Cheers Alan Baker2Bits 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastzx Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Now you can make a USS Tang rescue diorama With an overloaded Kingfisher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ringleheim Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 One of my favorite planes of all time. Can someone provide a little background info. on Kitty Hawk? I know nothing about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vandy 1 VX 4 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) Now you can make a USS Tang rescue diorama With an overloaded Kingfisher. We would need a 1/32 or 1/35 Gato / (Balao thick skin )class sub for that. All the 1/35 scale subs are Axis subs Can you see a 1/32 Gato class / Tang at a show It be 9ft 9in long or 297.18 CM Cheers Edited April 11, 2015 by Vandy 1 VX 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royboy Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 I think that once again KH will strike gold with this kit! Surely an eventual follow up with a Devastator in 1/32 scale would delight fans all over the world and hit the right spot yet again! Well done Glen and team. scvrobeson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_S Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) I want one! The Kingfisher has been high on my list for a long time. Now if we can get someone to produce an IM B-58... Edited April 11, 2015 by Bill_S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaninaustria Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Wow, spent the evening reading about the history of this tough little bird... I really can't wait for this kit to come out! How lucky we are!! Cheers Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richdlc Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 very cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBrown Posted April 11, 2015 Author Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) I too am really excited about this news. I think this was a wise choice by Kitty Hawk and the kit will appeal to a wide spectrum. USN has always been very popular, but there is also service with the FAA & RAAF among others. Finally and most importantly (for me) it is just a cool looking airplane. Edited April 11, 2015 by RBrown Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
