Jennings Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Why no buzz about the new Platz 1/72 RQ-4 Global Hawk and their new 1/144 A-4F Scooter??? I can't wait! J Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Williams Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Because they are the wrong scale? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scooter Man Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Whoa......how did I miss these? Thanks for the "heads-up" good sir! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Davfoe Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 The A-4 has been talked about by Platz for a while now. I think the original buzz came out about a year and a half or more ago. Not to keen on the Global Hawk, but would like to see the A-4F come out. Also planed was/is an 1/144 F-8K. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChernayaAkula Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 Cool! especially the Scooters. Hmm, an RQ-1 Predator last year, an RQ-4 Global Hawk this year, maybe an RQ-9 Reaper next year? :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 Because they are the wrong scale? I'm pretty sure they meant for them to be in 1/72 and 1/144 respectively. It'd be a major screw-up for the tooling shop to cut the tool to the wrong scale. I'd think it would be pretty obvious when the saw the first test shots :o J Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST0RM Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I'll be happy to add the Global Hawk to my multiple Preds. The tiny Scooter sounds cool also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CraigSargent Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 You mean like this? :) buzz about the new Platz RQ-4 Or how about this: They are now on to their 3rd incarnation of the Predator with some minor updates for the MQ-1B (previous ones were the RQ-1A and MQ-1A).

Brian P: Fightertown Decals Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Absolutely stoked to see the 1/144 Scooter finally coming out. I've been scoping out our A-4 sheets and a bunch of reference trying to figure out what/how to do a 1/144 A-4 sheet. btw, when is Platz releasing the TA-4?... :) -brian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
