oyoy5 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Can't wait I'm selling one of my Tamiya P-51s now, the pictures look really good I wonder which P-51 they looked at in the museum and used as a diagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Five Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Sounds good. Wish it was a B though. MikeC, Joel_W and Rick Griewski 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel_W Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Sounds good. Wish it was a B though. Me too, Just can't understand why no one is willing to come out with a state of the Art P-51B/C. You would think that there is quite enough new moldings of a D already on the market. I guess Revell will be looking at it's same approx. retail price point.

LSP_Kevin Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Just can't understand why no one is willing to come out with a state of the Art P-51B/C. Joel, HK is working on one right now. Kev Joel_W, LSP_K2 and Mister J 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel_W Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Joel, HK is working on one right now. Kev Kev, Pete has told me that several times, but from what I've read here on LSP, they also have other projects in the works with no realistic time line. Right now I'm completely focused on finishing the F4F-3 to the best of my abilities, and then the A-4E Scooter. So I have time to hopefully watch the process unfold.

Big Texan Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 No doubt the HK kit will be nice, but expensive. Hopefully, Revell will do one in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel_W Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 THEY ARE!!! HK announced one last year. It's in the works. It's been extensively discussed on this very board. Jennings, yes they have, but no release date, no CAD design pictures, no nothing to show that the project is actually moving towards completion. Others have posted that HK has several projects in the works, so I'm not counting on what is essentially vaporware at this point. I've been disappointed just to many times over the years to feel much different. Joel coogrfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel_W Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I've seen CAD. It exists. Whether you choose to believe it or not is completely up to you. Jennings, It's a positive for sure that there are CAD drawings, but that only means that the project is in its early stages of development. Now when we're treated to pics of a test shot, then I'll be counting the days till I have at least one, with luck I'll be able to afford two as I'll be fully retired by then, (retirement is at the end of this year).

Joel_W Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Oh ye of little faith. Jennings, At my age, and being involved with the hobby since the early 70's, I've seen more them my fair share of Vaporware, so while I'm hoping that HK actually does indeed mold and release the P-51B, they're far from that point even with just some CAD drawings.

Dave Williams Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I remember seeing CAD drawings of AFV Club's F-104 too. How'd that turn out? Joel_W 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel_W Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 (edited) I remember seeing CAD drawings of AFV Club's F-104 too. How'd that turn out? While it's a step in the right direction to have CAD drawings,but that's all they are, and mean next to nothing as far as getting a commitment to move ahead with the project.

andromeda673 Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 have faith in Revell, I do after building their 1/32 spitfire, everyone dumped on it at first, and it has turned out to be a great kit, every once in a while Revell will shock you with a great release. I'm still really interested in their F18 Super hornet, hopefully that gets released however the date has been getting pushed around like a ping pong ball Joel_W and coogrfan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
