ringleheim Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 There isn't a quality 1/32 FW-190 kit in existence. The old Hasegawa kit is about the best out there, and that is like a 1/72 scale kit blown up to 1/32. I'm personally holding out for the Zoukei Mura kits, but God only knows when (if ever) they will deliver anything.

thierry laurent Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Blame Arthur Bentley! Without his very detailed and accurate drawings we would not get so many 190s! nmayhew, LSP_Matt, barkhorn and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalashnikov-47 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 I couldn't possibly be less interested. But I hope they sell tons of them. That will allow for investment into other subjects.

Royboy Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 (edited) Whether this is a wise move or not they don't have one in their product lists and Fw190's DO sell in droves in all scales! We shouldn't be surprised if a Bf109 series eventually makes it's way to us either. At least KH are delivering non WWII models that no one else out there are tackling so far in our scale. Don't forget the modelling world is wider than just the super enthusiast market! Edited August 14, 2019 by Royboy Grammatical correction.

Though the RoG one from a few years back is pretty decent it seems. Odd that this is true of such a popular and heavily modeled plane. The old Hasegawa kit is about the best out there, and that is like a 1/72 scale kit blown up to 1/32. Ditto. If that's the best out there, then we do need another one. I'm personally holding out for the Zoukei Mura kits, but God only knows when (if ever) they will deliver anything. I probably won't buy one, but I'm betting it will be great!! 5 hours ago, kalashnikov-47 said: I couldn't possibly be less interested. But I hope they sell tons of them.

AlanG Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Hmm. Wonder if people would be bleating like a injured sheep if it was 'yet another P-51D or Spitfire' they'd say they were releasing. Or is this just another i'll jump on the anti-Luftwaffe bandwagon again? If it's a decent kit then i might have a look at it. I love the Hasegawa kit(s) and as of yet have to build the RoG kit(s). More the merrier i say. nmayhew and Martinnfb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 We are in desperate need of a decent, early A3/4 Fw- 190. On top of that , what a great time for 1/32nd scale ! We get new release every six months, this use to be unheard of 10 years back. Despite my spoiled nature I do appreciate every new release in 1/32 and it doesn't matter if it's my favourite type/marking/etc..

dennismcc Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Not one for me but I'm pleased for Luftwaffe fans and 1/32 fans as there is now another new tool kit on the way Cheers Dennis Out2gtcha, D.B. Andrus and Martinnfb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah. Just more Bf109s, Fw190s and Mustangs.... Because they sell. That they sell because that is all they sell, seems to be forgotten. I might be exaggerating slightly.
