thierry laurent Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 As far as I'm remembering the TBD is indeed the last item from the 1/32 missing kits announced by Trumpeter close to ten years ago! So, who knows....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony T Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 Wondering if they'll stop with the TBD and F-100C or if December's 2021-2022 catalgue will add anything new in 1/32. Would be nice to see the missing subjects in the Century Series line-up, especially the Voodoo, Deuce and Six.

scimitarf1 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) On the wing thickness I really would not worry. I have just finished wrestling a Mono F-100 I to submission and comparing it with the Trumpy Hun I cannot tell the difference. The deployed slats, tanks etc obscure the lack of thickness. I too had thoughts of performing surgery but not worth the effort in my opinion Edited September 2, 2020 by scimitarf1 Out2gtcha, LSP_K2 and Tony T 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be most welcome Not real sure why, but I've never been a big fan of the -106, not nearly as much as the -102 anyway. And speaking of the Voodoo, there's a pretty nice one not too far from here (minus engines, of course), a gate guard of sorts, at the Spirit of Saint Louis airport. This is still quite visible on Google satellite maps too. I seem to recall that for the longest time they also had an F-4 (or some other Mac product), but I just noticed a couple of months back that it's gone now.

I took had thoughts of performing surgery but not worth the effort in my opinion The Monogram series always were good kits, at least in my opinion. I've considered the Trumpeter kit in 1:48 scale, but have not really looked into that enough to determine if purchasing it is worthwhile or not.

I too had thoughts of performing surgery but not worth the effort in my opinion Thanks for that. The common parts look identical to the earlier D releases so I'll get a new nose scoop but as Renaissance no longer make the drop tank plugs — they just told me so in an email — that means buying Zacto or AMS parts from across the pond. Is Harold still selling the nose scoop and tank plugs (or whole new fuel tank front ends) set? I couldn't see any at Sprue Brothers. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
