Archimedes Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 HI All The indefatigable Homebee on Britmodeller has spotted that Border are launching the Focke-Wulf Fw190 A6 in 2023: Interesting to see this. it will be good for dioramas!

CRAZY IVAN5 Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I don't know , I just can't seem to get around 1/35 scale aircraft ,which is odd considering I'll do helicopters in that scale. It's a mental thing with me. The reviews I've read on the 109G and the Stuka were less than glowing . I've never built a 190 before [ strange as that might sound ] if it's good I MAY take a chance.

Its all personal. williamj, CRAZY IVAN5, Rick Griewski and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hworth18 Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I'd rather have it in 1/32, but I'll probably buy one if Border can get it right. Unfortunately, their previous track record in 1/35 scale ac would say probably NOT. Martinnfb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TankBuster Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 If its as good as their Stuka I will grab one. Cheers. Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggernut Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Hard pass... I already have one Hasegawa Fw190A-5/6 and with ZM poised to release similar ones in the not-too-distant-future, I'll keep my kits to 1/32.

Get yourself a nice Revell 190F-8 , it's a nice kit, reasonably priced and you'll be happy. mark williams, chrish, Rick Griewski and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanG Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 It's probably the only way i'll be able to get an A6 version. The Hasegawa kits are like rocking horse poo to find (and at a good price) and the ZM one if and when it ever appears will be so over-priced it'll be out of reach for me also. So i'm interested in this kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did pick up a 109G on sale, I am thinking about a 1/35th diorama. Even if someone did start making 1/32nd vehicles, it will be a long time before there are enough options to make diorama choices. BTW, I did pull out my resin Pend d O'rielle 1/35th 109 for comparison. The resin kit actually compares pretty well if not as finely detailed.

I've started looking and the prices for these are a little on the high side ,probably because they're out of production maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMaben Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 You could buy 2 on ebay for the price of 1 ZM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
