K'Tesh Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Everybody has a subject that they'd love to see, but there's no kit. What is sitting in that mental hanger that is your wish list? Me, Personally, I'd love to see a 1/32 F-111E (77th TFS) and EF-111A (42nd ECS) with beautiful cockpits, great pilot figures (seated), weapons bays, seamless intakes, optional wing positions, slats/flaps, an arsenal of weapons capable of taking out a small nation, BRU's (not MER's or TER's), and a MJ1 Bomb lift truck... You know, THE WORKS. I'm also wishing that I could find a 1/32 SU-27KUB with much of the same features as above. I guess I'm a sucker for tandem seating arrangements in fighter aircraft.

ssculptor Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 1/32 Japanese: Nakajima B5N Kate torpedo bomber OR the Aichi D3A1 Val dive bomber OR both. I'd even be happy to see them in Vacuform. Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michel borderline Beekveld Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I'll ask my Bulgarian associate when he's back from some "business" in China. But i'm pretty sure what the color is gonna be. MBB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I'm still hoping Dragon will come through with their promised Do 335. Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wurzacher Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 1/32: Do 335, Me 163 (being announced, yes. But too quiet for some time now), Do 24, Fw 58 Weihe, He 219 Uhu. Sigh... Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tnarg Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I really like LSP Mike's choices, and especially like those Swedish planes. Is that Swedish Yellow influencing my interest in Yellow Wings? WWI - Lohner Flying Boat (L135) Fokker D.VII (yes, I am just waiting for WNW) Nieuport 24 Breguet 14 1930's - Curtiss P-6E Curtiss SBC-3/4 Helldiver Curtiss F11C/BFC-2 SB2U-1 Vindicator PZL P-11c (dare I hope for a Karas?) WWII - Pete Kingfisher Fiat CR-42 50's to Modern - OV-10 Bronco (Cal Fire) Saab Viggen (all the versions, especially recon and two seater) Saab Draken (Danish,Finnish,Austrian as well as Swedish) Saab Gripen Saab 105D Saab Tunnan Here's hoping for some of these to happen, Tnarg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotsman Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 For me, i think i'd be inclined to go modern(ish) The F-111 is a great start Mirage F-1 Mirage 2000 Rafale F-22 Tornado F-3 tornado GR4 Bur for a change , how about some of the lesser aircraft Avro Anson FW-189 And yes the remainder of the Pearl Harbour strike force the / Judy & Kate And of course a decent 32nd Mosquito ..

You know, THE WORKS. Did you know I spoke with Sing from Trumpeter once and he told me that they did in fact contemplate doing a 32 scale F-111. They thought the cost of tooling was to high and and now you have the new 48 scale F-111 from thier research. It was a real pity as I was really excited for a while thinking about doing an Aussie F--111C and the F-111B naval version. We can only hope they revisit it later and take the chance to produce it. Send them an email and ask for it. You never know! Edited April 13, 2011 by Cunumdrum61 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDave Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Now this is really odd I know but I would love a 1/32 Grumman Skyrocket. Failing that a Westland Whirlwind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a real pity as I was really excited for a while thinking about doing an Aussia F--111C and the F-111B naval version. We can only hope they revisit it later and take the chance to produce it. Send them an email and ask for it. You never know! I've yet to understand this! Cost of tooling too high!?! And what about the cost of the Tomcat or Su27 tooling? This is a moot point don't you think so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilM Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Lots of good choices above, but two I'd particularly second: - Westland Whirlwind (but probably too little known for mass market?) - Canberra: surely lots of worldwide appeal, for both variants and colour schemes and markings? Please, Mr Revell of Germany? If Mr Tamiya is making a set of each nation's WW2 iconic single seat fighter, isn't there a preserved Yak 9 somewhere they can use to make the definitive USSR entry?
