New ICM WW2 US plane kit?

[MikeC]

But in keeping with the trainers trend, top of my ICM wish list is a 1/32 Chipmunk, or if we're only talking WWII a Miles Master and a PT20/22.

You're fully right Kent. I forgot that box. This is somewhat strange to see that USAAF exception repeated!

 

With regard to the T-6, I would be very surprised because of the KH T-6 but who knows?

But the KH T-6 is much less than perfect Thierry, plenty of room for improvement.

Not to mention becoming increasingly hard to find.     I would be pretty excited if they release a T-6.

I'm still hopig for an L-4/O-59 honestly, it would fit right in with their current line up, and would be a great base for a Cub, although I suspect that choice would probably only be popular with a smaller crowd.

I know but we have yet to see an ICM release of a topic recently released by another LSP company.

Tiger Moth - Silver Wings?

Stearman, Roden, although they did emerge about the same time iirc.

They were in development at the same time. So, to me, this is not really relevant. Had they been aware, I'm sure one of the two companies would not have developed the project up to the end.

This was a resin release as the Fiat CR42 or the Gladiator. Moreover it is quite probable they started that project more or less at the same time as the development cycle of such resin kits is generally shorter. I should have written another plastic LSP company.

I really don't have a dog in this fight...   But I hate to see trainers when there are so many front line aircraft poorly represented.

Why should front line aircraft have precedence over trainers?

Because I really find anything without a gun very mojo-killing.

B-26 Marauder would be cool! That is a B-17 ghosting in the background!

As opposed to so many training types which are not represented at all.

Indeed.  In fact, imo trainers are THE most important types of all as without them, there'd be no aircrew to fly those front line types.  And they tend to be more colourful. But that's just my taste.
