misha71 Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 Happy new year to all members. I just have seen this news from largescalemodeler on my fb. Rick Griewski and D.B. Andrus 2
Guest Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 Check out the 2nd page of this thread, confirmation that A) It is a new tool, and B)based on the price it'll be more like the Spitfire/Mustang , so basic but usable Britmodeller Hurricane thread D.B. Andrus 1
Tony T Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 Yes, Hurricane IIB, new tool, due September. By all accounts it's an A-team design so promises to be rather good. There's also a new variant Bf 109 G-2/4 coming sooner, in April. I don't need Tamiya quality or prices, although I may succumb to the Spitfire IX and XVI and Vought gull wing before I snuff it.

Guest Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 For once Jennings I hope your wrong about this , Could Revell have outsourced the design/tooling ?
Rick Griewski Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 Jennings, I am hopeful that this one comes to us however it gets here. We have a lot of 2022 remaining. ICM releases it with Soviet colors and Revell rebox as British. Alain Gadbois 1
Hans Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 One of the editors of our IPMS (Holland) magazine, Peter Booij, who is a member of this site as well, has been to the Revell press conference for the year 2022. He writes in the latest magazine issue that Revell is doing very well financially and that they are planning to produce kits from new molds in the future. Design and production of the new kits will be in Europe. The metal for the moulds will be cut in China. MikeMaben, scvrobeson, Out2gtcha and 7 others 6 4
Radub Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 As I explained in another thread on this subject on this forum, this is a brand-new tool commissioned by Revell for Revell. This is one of those cases where you must take my word for it. Revell has been commissioning new models for the last couple of years. Radu Fanes, Paul in Napier, Rick Griewski and 20 others 16 7
Collin Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 If Revell's A Team is listening...and wants to make $$$....new tool 1/32 F6F Hellcat. Happy New Year. Collin Rick Griewski, kalashnikov-47, Out2gtcha and 1 other 3 1
dennismcc Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 Fingers firmly crossed, with a nearly finished PCM Mk.I fabric wing still on the go and several FLY hurricanes in the stash I would still snap up this one in a flash. Cheers Dennis Rick Griewski and nmayhew 2
DonH Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 Yay Revell, good for you with the new tooling! Great news.
Phantom2 Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 Great News! ...and I´ll get one, that´s for sure! Stefan ColinR 1

mozart Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 A new tool Hurricane is long, long overdue and is guaranteed to be a winner. I just hope that Revell have got a knowledgeable aviation adviser onboard and not just designers, it’s vital that they know the subject. monthebiff, AlanG and MikeC 3
is it windy yet? Posted January 3, 2022 Posted January 3, 2022 Well I might hold back on buying a IIb, but waiting patiently for the IId and Mark I.

If you're going to start popping out new kits, with new molds, tackle something sought after, and long overdue. The Hurricane was an excellent choice here. And yes, it's one thing to design a building... it's another to be a structural engineer to make sure it'll actually work. - Dennis S. Thornton, CO USA Royboy, D.B. Andrus, Phantom2 and 2 others 5
