Graham It really does demonstrate how theres no rhyme or reason when it comes to what will actually sell, compared to what the market says they want. Your kits look absolutely superb and are fantastic value for money, but hold zero interest for me. A Martin Baker MB5 from you, on the other hand, would find it's way onto my bench immediately, but I'd imagine that that subject would (sadly) hold even less appeal than a spiteful or Attacker :/ We are a weird bunch of folks to please.

Tnarg 1,644 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. Tnarg Link to post Share on other sites

do335b6 257 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 post Share on other sites
Rick Griewski 3,828 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 post Share on other sites
