HPH do a couple of DH Hornets in 1/32, although it's a full-on resin kit and is pretty expensive. https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/HPH32024R https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/HPH32034R Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CATCplSlade Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 The Hornise was an anti-tank vehicle, and they already released a new tool of that under its more common name, Nashorn. The new kit is the Hummel, which is an spg. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thierry laurent Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 I do not think a Tamiya Hornet would be noticeably cheaper than the Hph kit. However it would be easier to build, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Ah... the Dynavector kits. Lovely buggers. A few replaced by styrene but still great. Rick Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 Indeed, my brother has a 48th scale Dynavector Skyshark that is really lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 2 hours ago, Jennings Heilig said: That seems like a no-brainer for Special Hobby. The HPH kit was, sadly, done from inaccurate drawings, and thus has the same problem with the windscreen and nose that every other kit except the beautiful 1/48 vacuform kit done by the Japanese guy (whose name escapes me). There are really only two basic variants for SH to do, and we know it would sell... That is not fully true. The Hph Hornet has indeed such a problem but the nose was redesigned when they released the Sea Hornet. I know it as I mixed sections of both fuselages to make a Mk. 20.

timvkampen Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 Fascinating to read the desires in the thread some of us have. A DH Hornet is a pipedream of course... I still hope for a combo: P-38 or a P-47 prop and a jet (F-18E/F, F-16A/B/D series, new tool F-14). All money makers. Then in 48: F-14A late / B and prop ...who knows...

Actually, I hope a P-38G/H, followed by the J/L. Canberra, yes please! Providing it's either the B(I)8 of PR.9 fighter canopy variants (plus, as stated, extras for B-57).

cbk57 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 I believe now there will not be a new Tamiya 1/32 LSP. Hard to say exactly why but it is a combination of things as in prior years we had pretty solid indicators prior to the show that something was coming by Early May or late April. I found a YouTube in Japanese that shows the Tamiya Shizuoka show guide with their releases for the show, their is no LSP in the guide. Also there are no release flyers showing up on facebook and other sites and no product lists showing up that show a new 1/32. So at this point I am saying odds are highly against a new LSP.

Being traditional Tamiya, they won’t announce anything till the week of the show or even the day of the show.

DeanKB Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 My wallet is praying for Tamiya to skip the 1/32 WWII kit this year. A modern jet is fine, I avoid them anyway. But a new tool 1/32 Tamiya WWII subject would be a compulsory purchase, sight unseen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KUROK Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 I will chime in about a P-38. If we got a P-38 from Tamiya with their same attention given to the Corsair...I would throw down some money. While I'm here, I'll also wish Tamiya would do an F4U-4 or -5....or both! JerseyChris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
