Padraic Conway Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Following Jan's link to the Old Man Blog: what can this mean? ▋Actually, our development team went to an aircraft museum in the U.K. to research a certain aircraft for a few days before the IPMS show. With the kind assistance of the museum staff members, our team thoroughly examined the aircraft down to each and every detail in order to gain a full understanding of it. Please look forward to it. As far as I know, we don't have a P-51B here in the UK, or a Bf109G or an Ar 234? So perhaps they went to Cosford to look at the Me410 (that would please Jan ) or to Hendon for the Bf110G-4 (might upset Max and Andy ) Or is this visit to examine an airframe that's not Luftwaffe? Don't we have a Dinah at Cosford? And isn't that just down the road from Telford? Just speculating... Jan_G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know ZM has the creds to pull this off, their P-51D was the best one out there until tamiya released theirs 2 weeks after. But still its an amazing kit. Im thilled and happy to see zm is doing th B/C This virtually guarantees Tamiya brings out a Razorback Mustang before HK or ZM so it's all good in the end.

That would be nice if it isn't just a fantasy. Absolutely nothing that I can tell. Its such a different beast than the D that I think it would take the creation of a whole new nearly complete model. It feels like the last F4U was the last Tamiya LSP we are going to see for awhile....................which with the boom in BIG LSPs, I would think Tamiya would want to jump on the wave of large LSP favor, but then again Tamiya has never done anything the conventional way.

PhilB Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I think Bob was being very tongue-in-cheek referring back to what happened to the "D" with ZM and Tamiya. As in joking. Out2gtcha, LSP_K2, R Palimaka and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
