Confusionreigns178 Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I wonder how many long-in-the-stash Tamiya Lancs will now appear on E-Bay? Chris. mpk and Michael931080 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark P Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 I'll be waiting for a 617 Sqn Lancaster or the inevitable resin conversion. Mark Proulx mpk and Dennis7423 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomprobert Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 (edited) I’ve just seen over on Britmodeller that HK have scaled down their Lanc and will be releasing it in 1/48th scale. We can finally bid the Tamiya veteran a fond farewell! Edited February 18, 2021 by tomprobert Phartycr0c, scvrobeson and mpk 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries Tom! Mine was very, very ambiguous. I'm going to change the title to reflect the topic, now that the cat has fully exited the bag. - Dennis S.

Pup7309 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Great news for Lanc fans! So when are we going to see a new 1/48 B-24? It’s a 1976 vintage pressing! mpk and Dennis7423 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a 1976 vintage pressing! I'm hoping that HK continues the trend and scales down their B-25 series. Then, once they make all that money on those guys, give us a 1/32 B-26 Marauder, and a 1/32 Handley Page Halifax Mk.III! - Dennis S.
