morane Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Hi all First of all, excuse my crapy English I just come back from ModelExpo 2015, annual meeting of AMV 84 in Hyères (South of France) I had the pleasure to meet the team of HpH which held a stand there, and I was able to discuss with members of the team. Their next model will be a FW TA-154 (ready for Telford) Should follow a Curtiss Helldivers (SB2C) and the already announced C-47. Finally, two others projects (long term one I think) were exposed in the form of drawing : Caproni Ca-3 (WW1 tri motors bomber) and the most crazy about all: Me 232 Gigant (yes 1/32 !!) This last project would be very, very Huge (true Gigant) I have some photos (Ta-154 illustration) but I can't past the URL using Google one, and I'm not able to log in Photobucket.

Zero77 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) Damn, the lenght is OK (28m), but the wingspan is 55.2m. It would be 1.72m in 1/32.... I really dont know where i could put this ! Edited October 12, 2015 by Zero77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexM Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Yeah, a Helldriver! That one simply looks way cool. A Gigant is a little bit too gigantic for me. Alex Capistrano 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 A Helldiver? And a Caproni Ca.3? Well, time to start selling kidneys on the black market. I need both of those in my stash. I can't wait to see those. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alain11 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 hi well "helldiver" , C47, moskito !!,I say yeaaaa !!!! we are spoiled!!!! , but my wallet say :" oh oh , you have to make a choice ..man . Hph kits are outstanding , top notch etc.... but a bit expensive ............but they are worth it as original subjects .. aren't they Matt ????

Zero77 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I don't know where anybody other than perhaps a museum could (or would want to) put a model that big. Seriously... I wish HpH luck, but I think they're throwing money away on stuff like that. I agree. I'll certainly buy all the other but pass on the Gigant. It's really too big. A twin engines US bomber would certainly sell better and fit most big display cases. Artful69 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Well, some amazing news, there! I still don't know where I'm going to put my two 1/72 Gigants.... Kev Zero77 and Alburymodeler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
