Zola25 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) Looks like their announced 1/35 AH-64A Apache is also now actually coming out. Its up for pre-order in a few stores already. I have both the MENG and several Takom Apache´s and I have yet to see Trumpeter release anything to that standard.. but will be nice to have an early Apache - sorry for hijacking the thread - back to the much more important Viking Edited January 5 by Zola25 dennismcc, Uncarina, CRAZY IVAN5 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martini_Man Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 The 1/32 scale Fw190 series is new and very welcome. But it is very surprising that Trumpeter wants to release both a short fuselage version (Fw190A-4) and a long fuselage version (Fw190A-8) as they require quite different moulds! I am very excited about Zoukei Mura's rendering of the Fw190, but at the rate they are releasing kits, we will probably not see the later A variants until 2026 Trumpeter's approach may also be easier to build and less detailed than Zoukei Mura's.

I have to wonder if Trumpeter will try to use the same fuselages for both the -4 and the -8[ hope not ] but this IS Trumpeter we're talking about here so......... Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Maxim61 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Interesting and good news. I always though Trumpeter would have done a EA-6B Prowler first on the back of their A-6 Intruder. So we have the S-3 coming and a resin 1/32 Seaking so life is good this year for carrier fans. I still live in hope of an E-2C and EA-6B one day.

Rick Griewski Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Came “out of left field”, IIRC is an event when a left hand batter hits the ball deep into the left field corner and the fielder throws a man out at home plate without using a relay from the third base player as a relay (adds speed and accuracy). Essentially a rocket arm shot that takes the joy out of what looked to be an easy score board run. D.B. Andrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
