Tony T Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 2 hours ago, Kagemusha said: I'd love a 1/32 Super Etendard, but sadly it isn't going to happen, until maybe the day comes when you can order a basic kit in the scale of choice from somewhere like Shapeways. There's a lot to be said for this. I personally would have no qualms ordering a basic snap-together kit that had a good outline shape and would be built "on a stick" with a gloss blue canopy and wheels-up overall Alclad chrome finish. I don't need the "in a field near Stalingrad" finish and would be very happy with the sleek metallic trophy look for a great Lightning, Mirage, Flagon, Fishbed, Starfighter etc., with just basic markings. A superdetail version could add cockpit, wheel wells and U/C and clear canopy if those were offered as "detail sets". Quite how "quiet" the prices might be is another matter, but they might offer the snap-together kit ready pre-chromed.

John1 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Supposedly KH will finally release a 35th UH-1D/H Huey this year. Hopefully addressing some of the issues with their 48th scale kit and not just scaling it up. Fingers crossed.

Talked with Glen about this briefly about a year ago at a show, he didn’t give an ETA at the time but did say they were working to correct a number of things with their CAD Out2gtcha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to their FB page, it's supposed to be out this year. The Huey is near and dear to me, as a young grunt, I had the pleasure of briefly flying in these birds before they were all replaced by Blackhawks. Truly an amazing experience.

Tony T Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 If KH could just get the 1/32 Thunderstreak and Thunderflash out, preferably before we die, that would be even better. Tony Royboy, timvkampen, thierry laurent and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony I'm really looking forward to the Thunderstreak. There was one about five miles from my old house, but it eventually disappeared, and I have no idea who ended up with it. timvkampen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistral Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Mirage F1 please - used in numerous aerial altercations including Angola in the 80's having taken care of some Cuban MiG-21s. Royboy and Kagemusha 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have told Song that better quality is more important then speed." Good news, but no definite date yet..............it could be December 2020 for all we know at this point. I certainly hope not, as Im really looking forward to this one! Tony T, wunwinglow and MikeC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeC Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Ideally they'll include the recce pod and some 2 Sqn or 41 Sqn markings; otherwise I might have to decide between 6 Sqn or 54 Sqn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Already had a set of 6 Sqn decals for a few years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
