Dpgsbody55 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 (edited) A new LSP release from Tamiya would certainly lift the spirits of many around here, after such a rubbish 2020. I'd be very happy with most of the suggestions here. A Hurricane would be great, as would a P-51B, P-47D (I'd prefer a Razorback but I'd buy a bubbletop) and I'd love to see either (or both ) a 109 or 190. I think a P-38 would literally fly off the shelves. But I'd also like to see a P-40, preferably an N or a KI-61. From left field, something Russian or Italian from WW2. However, after so many years without anything new, I'm not feeling especially sanguine at that prospect. Thankfully, I have some nice planes in my stash to be getting on with.

I have learned that I am rarely disappointed if I have low enough expectations. In the case of Tamiya releasing a LSP any time soon I have very low expectations. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thierry laurent Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 By the way, has any LSP company already announced 2021 new releases? It looks most if not all of them are silent. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure there are a few others out there as well though. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Very probably but ZM announcements were 2018-2019 ones. There are other ones arriving such as the Special Hobby Whirlwind. What I was refering to is the NEW topics announced for release in 2021-2022. LSP_K2 and mpk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basta Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Hope springs eternal... but it will be RCs, cars and cycles. Sorry, but that's where the $ is. mpk and scvrobeson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnarg Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Can't even begin to think about how glorious a P-38 by Tamiya would be.... what would it be like if they copied Revell and made all the versions? Tnarg mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uninformed speculation? That's me. The less I know, the more I like it, so I predict a new F9F Panther, preferably a -5. MikeMaben, mpk and D.B.
