Revell news for 2011! New tool 1/72 Halifax, Ju 88A-4


Recommended Posts

IPMS Deutschland posted the Revell 2011 list. HERE'S for the full listing!

New tools:

1/32

Westland Sea Lynx Mk.88/HAS.2

1/72

Airbus A400M

Handley Page Halifax Mk.I/II

Junkers Ju 88A-4

1/144

F-15E Strike Eagle

F/A-18E Super Hornet

1/48

gets a rock! :)

Some surprising stuff. The Sea Lynx and Halifax come as a total surprise. And that 1/48 gets zip, apart from the re-release of the Monogram Zipper.

Really looking forward to the F-15E, although I would have rather seen it in 1/72.

Looks like they're finally putting the old Matchbox Halifax mold out to pasture. Naturally, I prefer the radial-engine version, but that will probably be along eventually.

Now the the new B-17G will just hop across The Pond I'd be a happy camper!

Lots lf nice news. But revell come on, A400m in 72? Why not in 144? And why is there no decent C-130 kit in this world? The Trall is a great kit, would love to see a Herc in the same quality! And most important:

WHERE IS THE MIRAGE III/5/50 KIT IN 72???

Please revell, don't let trumpeter screw it up.

Thanks revell for the new tools and reissues and

Happy new year to all.

A new tool ST:TOS USS Enterprise????

And a D-7 Battlecruiser. Both listed as 1:600, no less. Companions for Airfix's ship line, perhaps?

I hope the A400M scale is in error. I would like to have that one in 1:144. 1:72 is a bit big for me.

Aren't those new Academy 1/144 C-130's pretty good?

Not my subject nor scale - but aren't the Amodel kits any good ???

I know Jennings has issues with the 'Roman Nose' variants - but are they that bad ???

Nice to see they're dusting off the old Heller 1/72 Vampire molds. That always was a good kit.

Don't think that Vampire is the Heller kit. That one was a Mk.V ... the one listed is shown as a Mk.I. Quite a difference in the fin/stailizer arrangement. If it is a Mk.I, that's defenitly a new tool!

Then perhaps it's old Frog Molds, I know they had at least one Vampire in their catalog.

I'll be interested to see if they scale up that Strike Eagle to 1/72nd so we can finally have an accurate one in that scale.

I'll be buying the 1/144th kit anyway.

EDIT: Just saw that the 15E has a from Korea note on it, Downsized Academy mold??
