Dennis7423 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Ooo... this is exciting. Their kits are absolutely lovely. This is their first venture into 1/32, isn't it? - Dennis S. Thornton, CO USA Jan_G and Harold 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Well, this is certainly news to me! Good to see yet another manufacturer bringing out LSP kits. The mock-up doesn't look like much, but it will be interesting to see this kit evolve. Kev Harold, Jan_G and Dennis7423 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbk57 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Great Wall’s work looks very respectable, I will be ordering one of these. We should see that early next year shipping with luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertmro Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 I hope it's better than the existing early P-40 because I'd love one. AlbertD and alanash1963 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbk57 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Maybe they have some idea of what they want to do and a 3-D printer so they could put something on their display stand. Could’nt they have generated that in the last week? 32 minutes ago, Jennings Heilig said: Not sure what that mock-up is, but I can state with 100% certainly that they have just (within the past three weeks) started research on the P-40. alanash1963 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Early P-40 nice alanash1963 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 I'll certainly be wanting one of these. alanash1963 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzas Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I hope I build my Trumpy kit before it comes out. Otherwise I'll regret all of the work I'll do to undo the work of the mad riveter.

Royboy Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I agree that it's great to see another manufacturer getting into LSP's. I expect more companies getting into the action over the coming years. The even larger scales also have enormous marketing opportunities for all subjects, so we shouldn't be that surprised that it's starting to happen now! I predict the biggest growth in the hobby over the next decade will be WWII aircraft in 1/24 scale, with 1/16 armour close on it's heels. 1/32 scale will become even more common place as a main scale too, just like 1/48 became many years back. These are exciting times, just wish I could live another 30 years to see it all!!! alanash1963, Out2gtcha and Jan_G 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerhard Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Is it any good? alanash1963 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 4 hours ago, Gerhard said: Is it any good? The Trumpeter kit? The main problem is that the cockpit floor is much too high. The seat and bottom of the instrument panel almost sits on the floor. MikeMaben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerhard Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Ok, thats not too big an issue. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcleon Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Gerhard, if you get the Eduard cockpit detail set for this kit it corrects just about every problem... and it doesn't cost much... Regards, Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
