Lots of users and a lot of interesting schemes....... I would probably say that a Corsair similarly done to the Hellcat and Tiffie would indeed sell at least as well. If they put out another 24th subject, Id say look for something from a WWII lineup of the major players. Corsair is right there in the middle of possible/likely releases in their scale. adameliclem, Alain Gadbois and RNoAF 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and like the Hellcat, storage size can be reduced by folding the wings. Alain Gadbois and Out2gtcha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alain Gadbois Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 The wings of a Fairey Barracuda can be folded also!!! Now wouldn't that be something! Alain Royboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonGUSA Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 My vote is for a Republic P-47D razerback and/or a Lockheed P-38J lightning. They already have 85% of the engine done for the P-47 (from the Hellcat) and the lightning isn't any bigger than the mosquito. A really good P-38 would be great! Lots of color schemes and theaters of operation. Ron G TAG and Royboy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 How about a Avenger/Tarpon? Jari Alain Gadbois 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Roberts Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Revised Spitfire Mk I optioned up to the standard of their recent releases, just in time for the 80th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain. That, or a 1/24 Lotus Ford Cortina - not a plane, but boy, can they fly! PR coogrfan, LSP_K2 and Alain Gadbois 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ringleheim Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I wonder if they are intending to re-do the old 1/24 kits, or deliberately avoid that subject matter as they've already done it. If they are willing to re-visit the old kits, a spitfire or Bf-109 would be great. FW-190 too. If they want to move in new directions along with the Typhoon and Hellcat, the Corsair would be popular, but how about a Zero?! Would be interesting in 1/24 scale.

The Phantom Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 P40 or maybe a Blenheim would be awesome but expendive KUROK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Zero would be a great compliment to the Hellcat. An A6M3 would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Ray Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Bad as it is, with the Trumpy A6m2 out there, I wonder if Airfix would even entertain a Zero. How about a Ki-84 to go up against the Hellcat! Alain Gadbois, coogrfan and LSP_K2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
