New Wingnut Fokker D.VII Variant coming in 2nd Quarter 2017!

Oh hell yes.  Can't read the title but it seems it may be an early fokker-built version. I'm loving this Nuremburg news!

Now that, I would buy. I missed out on them when they first came out, and no way will I pay what they go for now!!

Indeed. It's rigging that puts me off every time I get a WNW kit I end up passing it on. I do regret selling my DVII's now. I'll have to get one of these to I think.

[BiggTim 5,341]

I don't mind rigging, I just love this plane!

I have but two WNW D.VII's now, but will certainly add this one as well.

[Jennings Heilig 10,067]

Yes, according to Steffen Arndt it is a Fokker early version.

[seiran01 3,430]

Yes, it's early Fok, and the coveted "streaky camo" decal sheet is included in it, going by the items on display on that shelf (pic from another angle on facebook)

It's the least exciting release WNW have made since the DFW C.V

 

I can understand those who missed the Fokker boat the first time being excited, as it means they don't need to pay $185 on Ebay for a Fokker D.VII.

 

The moral of the story - if you see a WNW kit you want, buy the bloody thing as soon as humanly possible. It'll hold it's value better than any other kit you care to mention &, if it sells out will actually make a profit. 

 

That's my excuse. With interest rates at rock-bottom, gilts yielding next to nothing & world-wide trade war around the corner, all my money is going into WNW plastic.

 

Nearly all of their kits took over two years to sell out - the exception being the Hansa-Brandenburg W.29. As a monoplane floatplane with very minimal rigging, it was snapped up quicker than you can say "stuff this bloody rigging, where's my Bf109 kit!?".

Awesome!! I sold off the ones I had right before the prices skyrocketed.. Talk about bad timing, but I really want to build a DVII and now I may have a chance without paying a mint.
