ICM 1:32 Bucker Bu-131D - out in UK

Can someone enlighten me about the -D designation ?

 

Wherever I look, I see no version beyond the -C, the most numerous one being the -B :hmmm:

 

I'm assuming it's more a « glitch Â» from ICM's boxart. And of course I hope there will be more decos than just ones with swastikas ...

Quote from the german Wikipedia:

 

"Replaced the B version from 1938. Differs externally with a larger tail wheel. Engine Hirth HM 504 A-2 (105 hp)"

So much excellent stuff in the ICM catalogue that could be scaled-up, but I imagine the injection moulds would cost a fortune

(Ju 88 C-6, Do 215, and Do 217 night fighters, and multiple Foxbats). Long may they continue doing 1/48 and 1/32.

Bummer about the decos being LW only :(. Maybe this is why it's a « D » version.

 

I'll wait for the « B » then, and hopefully they will have decos of other aircrafts than LW...

I have an order ready in my cart from Hannants. I think i'm going to add this kit... ;)

I already have the Bu-133 and Bu-181 (will be built as a swedish SK25 !) from Planet models, that 131 would be a nice addition.
