MDriskill Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Apologies in advance if I've missed updates posted here, but just wondered if there was any word on when we might see the 1/32 Folgore listed in the current Italeri catalog? Original release date was listed as May, IIRC. Really hope it's a good one, I love this beast! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark P Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I'm also curious as to what Series of Folgore they plan on releasing. I thought this was a fall release? Mark Proulx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 I don't recall them mentioning a release timescale. scvrobeson and esarmstrong 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 They are always far too optimistic when they give a release planning (as close to all other kit manufacturers!). I would be very surprised seeing that kit before at least the arrival of the fall months... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quang Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Failing the MC.202, they can give me the MC.200. I wouldn’t mind MikeMaben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiZac Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 This may be silly, but has anyone got an answer from Italeri direct? They were kind enough to crush my dreams via email earlier this year (reissue of 1/48 Bell JetRanger that was in catalogue since 2016). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaninaustria Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I have been writing to Italeri for years to do a 1/32 series of Mc 202 and 205. This is the latest reply regarding the upcoming release: Dear Sir, thank you for your mail, herewith we inform you that we will produce our kit 2518 Macchi 202 Folgore and there is the possibility to build a 205 Veltro version with some extra parts (self-built by you), we are taking in consideration the possibility to produce the model 205 in the next years. Concerning your request to send you some sprues before we sell the kits, we are sorry but we don't make this service. Best regards, Italeri Spa Via Pradazzo, 6/b 40012 - Calderara di Reno Bologna - Italy KiwiZac, LSP_K2, Fanes and 2 others 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Zac means that the re-issue has been promised in the catalogue since 2016, rather than the introduction of the original kit.
