OMG! Something I always fervent believed was an eventuality, but I never, ever guessed that it would be this soon. I'm extraordinarily happy with this news, and already looking at my stupidly large stash to see what to sell off.

You and me both Kev, really want a Lanc but that 400 looks just beautiful and then a Dr.1. Need to have a good look at my stash as Ibwould like all 3 if possible, fortunately it's my 50th birthday in January and family are asking what I would like a a present.:).

Hooray! Finally an end to the 'Why won't WNW do a Fokker Triplane WAAAAAHHHHH' whinging.

 

Yes - honestly this is the best part of this release lol

 

I never really had any issue with the Roden kit, but sure the WNW will be better in many ways and it will find its way into my hands at some point

Oh yes, I'm dead serious about "culling the herd". I'd like to eventually add a half dozen or so Dr.I's to my stash.

Crap...  Now I gotta  get my Roden kit built!  

 

Well...this will appease the Dr.I crowd.  And leave the SE 5 ppl still wanting.   

 

Wonder how how long till pre-order begins.

 

Ive been waiting for Pheon to get on the stick.  But they’re way behind my schedule for the Dr. I decals.

I'm jettisoning (aka trashing, binning, or your choice of refuse container) my Roden Dr. I as I ran into fit "issues" and boxed it a long while back.  I'll keep the decals and possibly the instructions (for decal placement).

No will be an old oop boxing,  Se.5a I would guess.

I sure hope your right. The Se.5a is on top of my want list and I missed it last time around. No way I'm paying $250 for one off of ebay.

They had to do this, in my humble opinion you cannot credibly be the a 1/32 model airplanes specialist and not issue this kit.  In turn I must have at least one.  I always thought this was coming at some point.  Their 10th anniversary is truly the right year.  It clearly is not the most important plane of WWI but it has that something special that for me personally makes it the most important.  I guesss because it is synonymous with the Red Barron but what ever the reason.  For me this was the one they had to do.

Great news all around except for my bank account!

Other great news We wont have to listen to guys saying Wingnut will never do a DR1 anymore!

And finally the guys who love the Roden DR1 so much that they dont want a Wingnut one(more like 6) will have a lifetime supply of them on Ebay going for 10 bucks each.

Everyone is happy today! 

Thanks Wingnut!

Oh yeah, I missed out on the Se the first go round, and love the Tripe, so an Se/DR.1 boxing would be a must have for me

Did the famous duel between the single Tripe and a group of Brits involve the SE 5A?  It was one of the all time classic air duels so if that is the case this should be given.  I just had a few drinks and names are slipping my mind but as a delist set this would be essential.
