haveblue Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) I know there has been a lot discussion about the WNW Lancaster , but here are some other pictures from the show: I saw this 1:32 P40 buried in amongst things, label says basically "show display only, pricing and release to be determined"....made by a company called G.W.H Hobby Boss 1:32 B24 HKM 1:32 Lancaster 1:48 Tamiya Spitfire Weren't a lot of bargains out there but I did manage to snag one of these (even though I didn't need it!!! ) for $175 USD!

phasephantomphixer Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 THANK YOU for the posting! Well done. Nice kits on their way to market. And like the last comment and pic. of the treat you got yourself! That B-24 is really something. Good that Great Wall Hobby is doing an early P-40 since Flying Tigers is a big part of history. haveblue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Ray Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Also, I saw they are re-releasing the 1/32nd Japanese Willow, just in case anyone missed the last, um, 8(?), releases. Rick Griewski, LSP_K2, scvrobeson and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be me! I've never been able to nab one, and I'd like to do one with floats and one with wheels. Kev D.B. Andrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ray Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Since I can't read Japanese, I am not sure if it included the float version as they only showed the wheels, but it is a start, and a pretty nice kit, too, considering its age.

You can see the float version in this photo, Ray: Still looks a decent kit after all these years!

Tony T Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 (edited) Thanks for posting the pics - much appreciated Never managed to snag that Doyusha Willow floatplane kit in the land of uk - maybe lucky next time! Might also be a builder, to determine the feasibility of rigging as a modelling activity (in which case, hello Swordfish!)

alaninaustria Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I’m really liking that 1/32 Willow on floats!! I want one!! Cheers Alan Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernut Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 I hope HB re-engineers that Emerson turret on the nose of the 24J. The seam across the top (like the old Monogram kit in 1/48) will be horrid in 1/32. If not, we'll the aftermarket companies will have at least one area that they'll be able to "fix". If the nose turret is like that, I'll be willing to say the tail turret is the same. I'm still looking forward to this kit (and the 24D). It remains to be seen how they've handled the different tail turrets between the D and the J. Cursory views with the Mark 1 eyeball are no doubt pleasing. D.B.

Not an excuse, but keep in mind this kit is verging on only one third the price of the HKM Lanc - that should fund a new turret or two Jan_G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
