Tnarg Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 If you are as slow to finish something as I am, even the fake box top can give you some joy. I truly appreciate the creation of those box tops of the B-58, B-26, Do-17 and Hampden. I have seen them and enjoy them almost as much as having them on my shelf, maybe more, since I just saw them and I'd have to dig through the garage to find their siblings. I guess that means I should finish something, but collecting is so compelling. And the kit will probably be a really fine P-38 with all the versions as options, assuming they want to sell a lot of them. The Martin B-10B only works if they want to sell one or two to me and two other people. But just think of how fine they could make a B-26 in any version and how many fascinating alternatives you could make. We really need to fill out the upgrade of those Momgram 1/48 heavies in 1/32 scale so we can cover the ceilings of our model building man caves.

do335b6 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 B 58 that would be awesome could convert it to Snoopy the B 58 that was modified to test the Hughs radar and missile system being designed for the XF 108 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Those kits all have the same dimensions because due to world virus difficulties model companies are going back to box scale. Hopefully it will be a big box. RadBaron and thierry laurent 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We buy kits of Luftwaffe aeroplanes that were never built but don't want aeroplanes with around 1500 examples Richard I want both types/examples. The more prototype like the better.

Jack Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 But....i'd surely would like to see a WW2 B58 Hustler or for that matter a present day Martin Marauder......................................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Mike Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Vince is being silly. A Beaufighter. Given the two Revell P38, and one trumpy P38 kits, I don't see the Lightning as feasible. So, American subjects are hazy.German subjects: Do17, Ta 154, me 410, Ju52? Dpgsbody55 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill M. Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Ok, if we are going to post our wants and hopes, here’s mine— Any P-38, P-51B, or Spitfire F.22/24. In the second tier of hopes— B-26 Marauder, A-20 Havoc, TBD Devastator and F4F/FM-2 Wildcats. Any of these would work for me! Bill M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
