AnthonyWan Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Would love to see some more 1/72 or 1/48 kits of the popular private/regional jets...Falcon 900 series, Cessna's Citation X, Gulstream V, Bombardier Global Flyer, possibly the newer Lears, Challenger 601...etc Also...Dash-8 series (up to the Q400) would be nice in 1/72 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
airliners! Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I'm with VC-10.... but for me, it's gotta be a 'Super". After all.... my car license plate is G-ASGH, and my business logo is a profile of an SVC ! Airfix huh? It would have good ptential with the military modellers given that the RAF is still flying them.... .... but please, make it the Super.... we're pretty good at shortening things !!!

GCA333 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 I'm fine with any British jet, pre 1980. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stsok9 Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Would love to see 1/72 CRJ along with a B-737 and my absoulute favorite the B-757! Be nice to see the Citation X and Gulfstream in 1/48 but would settle for 1/72 also. Jason Brown Quote Link to post Share on other sites
giacomo Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 This is *purely* theoretical. People will always add selections that I didn't put in the poll, but this is just to judge interest, not to set a release list. I'd be talking about mainstream injection molded kits (not Eastern European short run stuff), with some innovative design ideas to possibly incorporate the option of clear or solid windows, seamless intake ducts, semi-detailed gear wells, etc. We're not talking about super dooper detail stuff, but good basic shapes, accurate details, and high quality decals. Tell me what you think! J I love baby busses! Anyway, I read that somebody already released a vac-formed A320 in 1/72! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
airplane88 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 It really looks like the CRJ is a winner. Sadly, there are really no models affordable enough, yet the CRJ is such a common aircraft to streak our skies. It is a sharp looking aircraft. Plus, the airplane can be in the 200-900 range. I also love the Embarer lines too. Do you think we will ever see a project of sorts come out one day? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GCA333 Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 CRJ is nice looking, but the Global Express and Challenger 300 have it beat! (GEX for the engines and 300 for the flight deck windows) I'd love to see any Bombardier jet offering, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 HI, How about a resin CRJ900 kit? I am thinking about doing one, as a limited edtion of about 50. Kurt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Mullins Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 I have (all in 1/72) a 707, 727, 737, and a 747. A DC-10-30, and DC-8 on order. I'm waiting on the 757, 767, and the 777. Mr. Neil Gaunt of Aircraft In Miniture Limited tells me he has plans to produce in the future the 757, 767 and the 777. He does however, have several other projects pressing at the moment so it may be a while. Neil also has said he would like to get some good drawings of the C-5. I would like for him to get some good drawings of the C-5. I ordered one a long time ago from the company that produced the one Paul Boyer built several years ago in Scale Modeler Magazine. They took my money and then went under. No refund and no C-5. I understand I was one of many to suffer that fate. Still want a big C-5. Paul Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tnuag Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 (edited) As Paul has said, we have the 757 masters complete, and the moulds exist for the 767-200, so they are relatively easy. I look forward to us doing the 777. The thing is we also want to bring the Rug Rat Resins range back into play, so after the A310 we will concentrate on resins for a while. On that subject, the majority of the masters will probably be computer generated - if anyone looks at the resin parts in the DC-8 and DC-10 they will understand why we are so pleased with them. The radome on the DC-8 with it's chin intakes and lightning conductor stripes is a source of joy to us! Again the subjects will be announced as they come along. Incidentally the Avro 748 was remastered just before we launched into CAD/CAM so some parts of that are CAD generated and some not!!! Sufficient to say that some subjects are from the 50s and some from today. Finally, if we could lay hands on good info for a C-5 we might make some people very happy...
