Fred Jack Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) Talking about empty promises, what ever happened to Trumpeter’s promise to release all of the Century Series of jets at least a decade ago, this also included the Voodoo, which anyone living in the 50’s fell in love with, and it wasn’t just the name. It was a beautiful jet flying over, or just sitting on the ground. Edited September 11, 2019 by Fred Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seiran01 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Cancelled unceremoniously like the Avro Arrow, from what it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 A lot of such promises vanished when the guy who communicated them left the company. kalashnikov-47 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony T Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 6 hours ago, ringleheim said: We're nearly there, given about thirty years. In a parallel universe there's a firm called Topiya making almost perfect 1/32 Deuces, Thuds, Sixes and Voodoos. Each comes with working oleo titanium undercarriage legs, nano working cockpit displays, thought controlled flying surfaces and a topcoat-activated self-stencilling airframe. So there!

Dandiego Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 The Voodoo is a classic cold war fighter and long a favorite of mine. 3 different basic designs, all very cool. Would love to see an IM model before I turn 100. Not holding my breath. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
