Rick Griewski Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I am pretty sure that I do not need a SR-71 made in 1/32 scale. It will be cool for some people. firefly7, LSP_K2 and CANicoll 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_Kevin Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I'm going with date-based humour here, but we'll see. Kev LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Revell 1:48 kit will be way more than OK with me. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernut Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) No, just no for at least two reasons that I can think of immediately. Like K2 said, the 1/48 Revell release will be more than OK with me too. Edited April 2, 2022 by Juggernut Rick Griewski and LSP_K2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ron Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I am with Kevin, must me a date based joke of the day. The thing would be 3 feet 5 inches long. LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adameliclem Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 No reason to think it’s a joke, HPH has been making noises about kitting an SR-71 for years. I will be very happy when the Hypersonic-Gaspatch 1/48th Blackbird comes out. It promises to be miles ahead of the very basic Revell offering. Cheers Adam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scvrobeson Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I mean, this is a company that's released a 1/48 Concorde, B-52, XB-70, Do.X, and B-36 Peacemaker. Huge kits rerally mean nothing to them. Matt LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloorwestSiR Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I remember they talked about doing a 1/32 B-58 so a similar scale SR-71 doesn't seem unreasonable. Carl Zola25 and scvrobeson 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GusM Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 They're doing a 1/32 Me-223 Gigant, so a SR-71 seems pretty feasible. scvrobeson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adameliclem Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 Hypersonic has been designing upgrades for the Revell kit, and their own project is in the tooling stage with Gaspatch. That’s from their FB account. I would love to have an accurate Blackbird in 1/32nd scale, but HPH kits aren’t my thing. Adam LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
305 swag Posted April 3, 2022 Share Posted April 3, 2022 I’m still waiting on that 1/32 F-4B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
