For me, there is no way I'm paying over $1000 US for any model. Couple that with the resin medium which could scare away a lot of those who might be able to afford the hefty price tag, and you have a poor seller for sure. I understand what you're saying, too. I'm no fan of resin myself. But if I wanted to make money, I certainly wouldn't ignore sales of other kits in other scales. There are a lot of holes in aircraft models covered in 1/32 scale.

I'd have bought the DC-3 kit in a heartbeat had it been $200; even the fact that it was resin doesn't bother me. The poor sales of the HpH kit have nothing to do with the subject, and everything to do with the price—and to a lesser extent, the medium.

airscale Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 I am sure I recall Neil talking about 'an RAF twin' at Telford a couple of years ago I remember thinking I must keep quiet about that.... intentions are not facts, so I await with the rest of you That, or I am inadvertently stoking the rumour mill..

Dpgsbody55 Posted July 8, 2020 Share Posted July 8, 2020 If Bookface is saying July announcement, then it's likely to be announced before Kevin receives it in the post. And if it is an RAF twin, then digits crossed it's a Beaufighter. Then lots of aftermarket goodies to go with it and we'll finally have a really good LSP Beaufighter. Their Meteor builds into a very nice model despite being "basic" with a few choice AM goodies. Cheers, Michael dutik 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I suspect that it may be some time before it arrives - especially since we're about to go back in to Stage 3 lockdown where I live. Why does this prevent it's 'announcement' ???

Only that I'm not likely to know what it is (or be able to announce it myself) for a little while yet, due to the circumstances described above.
