wunwinglow Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I'd personally prefer to see a few more 30's vintage fighters and bombers, Fury, Nimrod, Bulldog, Hart, Demon, IIIF, Shark, Battle, Blenhiem, Gauntlet, but I would certainly buy a really good Lysander too! reconspit, Rick Griewski, Pup7309 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanG Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 A Lysander would be well cool. Especially for a diorama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ossington 1 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Battle, Blenheim, Anson & Oxford please. Funny how there isn't (ever) any resin upgrade for the Matchbox/Revell Lysander. It would be of benefit. I also find it odd that recently a complete resin Tiger Moth should be mooted when the Matchbox/Revell kit is readily available and just need some cockpit & engine tweaks. alanash1963 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Mike Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 I'd prefer they stay prolific, and give us a few other planes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Revell Tiger Moth needs a lot more than just a few tweaks if you want it to look anything of the standard that the Silver Wings one promises to be. The wing dihedrals are all wrong for a start off, especially the lower wing. Out2gtcha and Rick Griewski 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out2gtcha Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 The plastic on the old Matchbox kit is not fun to work with either. The Silver Wings kit will be most welcome! mozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pup7309 Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share Posted December 15, 2019 I’d also like to see a Cr32 and has anyone done a Mitsubishi ‘Claude’ or other Zero prototype? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Mike Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 Special Hobby did a Claude. While I do agree the old Matchbox Lysander was a stressful kit to build, I'd like to see a more prolific lineup. Still many 1930s planes to be kitted. That said, a better tooled Lysander might get some sales. I'd like to see more planes with pants. Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear parts way too thick, detail, elevator horns, cockpit doors, wind shield frames lacking, poor plastic abounding, and generally over simplified detail or lacking of detail all around. All in all not a horrible kit for being +40 years old, but Im really anxcious for the SW kit to arrive! Finally a fully detailed high end kit! Although its resin, every SW kit Ive put together has been a joy. mozart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
