Troy Molitor Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Awesome news! All three are most welcomed. I’d like to see a possible Bf -109G-5As or 6As. The P-51B is just brilliant to finally see on the list. Great news for all three announcements. Jan_G, D Bellis and D.B. Andrus 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.B. Andrus Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Thanks for posting, JanG. Very interested in how their 109G will turn out. It's a notoriously complex series of shapes difficult to bring together accurately, I wish them the best of luck in the endeavor......not getting any younger over here so please hurry! The possibility of two P-51B/C's is wonderful news! Personally, it's the only Mustang I have an affinity for and I'm expecting both ZM & HK to offer excellent kits. Good to have another 234 coming, I hope Radu would be involved in the planning/development, as his MDC model is on the money. This being their second Luft. jet, I wonder if a ZM 262 is in our future?

And I already have the MDC and Fly versions but will probably go for the ZM issue as well... Same for me Padraic with the Ar-234 Not so much into P-51B/C and no interest in 109 at all. But Im happy for all guys who will enjoy it Really I was sure that ZM will announce Me-410 and new P-38. Nevermind, their Ki-45 is more than great and with Hs-129 coming I can see nice time spend with their kits in upcoming months jan Southern Bandit, D.B.

Southern Bandit Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Great news on the P-51B/C. I'll have one of each and will sell my *ahem* not so good Trumpy B now with AM I have accumulated for it but will keep the AM "Shangri-La" decal sheet I bought ... love that scheme.

Tony T Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Was hoping they'd turn more Japanese . x ^ x A Dinah, Oscar and later Tony or two would be as F A B as a 1/32 Thunderbird 2 Tony kalashnikov-47, Jan_G, kikka and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalashnikov-47 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Yawns on the Luftwaffe subjects. A decent P-51B is most welcome! PhilB and Jan_G 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Really stoked to hear about the Mustang. So, I know nothing about these guys. What kind of quality is ZM known for? Tamiya level (pretty much perfect w/ regard to accuracy and details), Revell (decent but nothing special) or Kitty Hawk (typically not ready for prime time)?

John1, the kits I’ve seen are on a par with Tamiya. They have a different approach in that they include more of the ‘structural’ elements - wing spars etc. though..

VMA131Marine Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 7 hours ago, Eagle Driver said: Revell kits are far from the class of Tamiya, and never -ever ever ever- will get to the A-list of ZM. So, no thanx. This is a ridiculous comparison. Revell aren't aiming their kits at the same market as Tamiya and ZM and their much lower prices, certainly in Revell's home markets, reflect that fact. The Revell 1/32 P-51D-5 is a perfectly fine kit for the price. Rick Griewski, coogrfan, 32tragic and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahernandez Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Was also hoping for an Me 410 but the Ar 234 will be nice as well as the P-51 B/C. Rick Griewski and Jan_G 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamF Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Surprised they're doing an Arado 234, when you consider it has been done well by 2 others before, I wonder if they will choose a version that hasn't been produced like the 'C' ?

Troy Molitor Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Hopefully we might even see an Ar 234C someday. That would be awesome. Wasn’t the 234C the fastest jet powered WWII aircraft that entered service ? A decent P-51B/C is just awesome to see come to light. There are so many decent livery options to ponder. Fundekals do you hear me????? The BF-109 would be interesting from the internal structural build standpoint. I’m also joyed by the fact that this conversation takes place over all those endless WNW boxkite twig contraptions with strings attached conversation., lol..

R Palimaka Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Very happy with the news about the Mustang III...ok, the P-51B/C. I'm really not crazy about ZM's approach with all that interior detail, but I won't be able to resist. It's the one aircraft I've wanted to see kitted properly and accurately. I'll probably buy at least one to build until HK releases theirs. Also surprised they don't venture into more Japanese aircraft. I'm not interested, but seems like there is clearly a gap in offerings. Richard coogrfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
