Andreas Beck Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I do not know if this has been posted here before. The photo is taken from German ffmc: https://www.flugzeugforum.de/threads/hph-models.59605/page-6 The posting says HPH and Fly will be going into coop as it was the case with the Hurricane. Also the A-20 Havoc will be released as an injection kit. Jan_G, LSP_Kevin, timvkampen and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.B. Andrus Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 From website in Andreas' post above: "HPH is breaking new ground. In the future they will invest more in cooperation with FLYModels. That was already the case with the 1/32 Hurricane. The next model in 1/32 will be the SB2C Helldiver. Also, the A-20 Havoc, which was intended as a resin model, will now appear in injection molding. One reason for this is likely to be the now sluggish sales of the not very cheap Resinmodelle. Of the C-47 only 60 pieces have been sold so far. On the big models, such as B-52 and Gigant but continues to work." EvilCarrot, scvrobeson, D Bellis and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilCarrot Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Could be good news, Helldiver sounds interesting. Hope they also do the Tigercat and fix some of the issues while they're at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Id HAVE to buy any injection molded F7F. I just saw Mark's HpH T-Cat and it's very nice, but the only 1 I've ever seen finished and If you've ever worked on an HpH Tigercat, you know how much work is in store for you. If you want to correct mistakes made that should have been corrected at the factory, it's a TON of work. Troy Molitor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan_G Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I would like to see their C-47 in IM. 60 pcs sold so far doesn't look as big achievement. 720€ is too much even for this complex top quality kit. jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 It looks like you need to be a member of that German forum in order to see images posted there. This is still some pretty interesting news, however, and I can't wait for some confirmation in English. Why is Jan not posting this kind of information here in our Vendors Board?

D.B. Andrus Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Kev The only SB2C image I saw on the forum was the one above. But, yes, you do have to be a member to see images. Being quick with a translation site doesn't hurt. Yes, Chrome will translate the site, but one has to be a Chrome user for that to work, I think. Not a fan of G****e. Cheers, D.B.

ChuckD Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Oh my. An injection molded A-20 is a must have. coogrfan, Rick Griewski, chrish and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Molitor Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 Oh my. Good news indeed. The Me 410 would also be a must have injection molded kit if they continue down that road. alanash1963, Fanes, D.B. Andrus and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alburymodeler Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 The Havoc was announced as IM about a year ago, but if they do the Helldiver, Me 410, and many others, I would be rapt. Anyone want to buy some resin kits......? alanash1963 and zerosystem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
