Dan Leduc Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 How about what's missing to backdate the 1/32 Academy F-16CJ to a block 30 so that we can make all those nice aggressor, instead of using and engraving the Hasegawa... Dan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scott Smith Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 How about some corrections for the Trumpeter Harrier? Leading Edge Extensions and under wing racks? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Check Six Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Something with a good profit margin! Would that mean providing a product that's in high demand? For example; If a popular model kit subject such as an ME/BF-109 needed a correct and accurate 'widget', and you provided it, would that be an example of a good profit margin? I remember back in the '80's one of my first lessons of business economics was from the movie 'Down and out in Beverly Hills'. Richard Dreyfuss' character's was a millionaire who owned a business and has a home in Beverly Hills. What kind of business does he own that made him a multimillionaire?His company makes.......dry-cleaner wire-coat hangers. A most primitive and basic product yet in constant high demand. If you can find your 'dry-cleaner wire-coat hanger' or 'pocket fisherman' product, that would be such a win-win. You would make a more comfortable living and we modelers would get awesome AM products for our builds ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alpagueur Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Hi Chris Now that I have your incredible Tomcat Intake Set, how about making a set for the wing spoilers and all the associated plumbing when they are hanging in the wind? Peter I'm in! With detailed slats/flaps mechanism for the wings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gagarin Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Something with a good profit margin! :pray:/> I have a suggestion,feathered and featherless exhaust nozzles for Tamiya 1/32 F-15 kits. Saw a couple of old CE sets going on eBay for nearly 60 bucks each not long ago. Also,the feathered nozzle could be sold as improvement for Tamiya/Academy F-16s. Exhausts for Hasegawa 1/48 Super Hornets might be a good earners as well,everyone wants them and as far as I know there is none in resin yet.... Expanding your excellent Sidewinder missile line would be awesome as well. Sparrows,AMRAAMs.... Looking forward to new sets from Zacto's kitchen,the best resin money can buy!

Kalashnikov-47 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Don't know if it's worth your while, but some wheels for the 1/32 Trumpeter MiG-15 and MiG-17F kits would be nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zactoman Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Thanks again for the suggestions! I'm still working on the OH-58D instructions as well as Su-33 artwork. After that... We shall see... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Timvkampen Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 The Su-33 is a great project for sure. I still say: 1.32 F-4B/N and F-16A/B / MLU updates. Or just 1/32 parabrakes for the F-16A/B/C/D; it would open up a world of options for Viper fans...and there are quite a few, so sales would be plenty! T Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Rivera Posted May 12, 2014 Share Posted May 12, 2014 Chris, It would be nice to see some F-16ADF stuff for the Tamiya 1/32 kit! Tail section , search light, IFF antennas , wheels, anything that can convert to the ADF falcon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kap64 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 All in 1/32: SU-33 conversion Harrier corrections T-45 conversion for Revell Hawk late model F-4E conversion Panavia Tornado corrections Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tail section , search light, IFF antennas , wheels, anything that can convert to the ADF falcon. Hey guys, don't under estimate the market share of the Academy also.... like I mention earlier, not that many items are required for the F-16CG Academy Blk.50 to switch to a Blk.30 and be able to do most if not all of the Agressor line up...

Dan Leduc Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 All in 1/32: SU-33 conversion Harrier corrections T-45 conversion for Revell Hawk late model F-4E conversion Panavia Tornado corrections But, the Su-33 conversion might be very tempting but I doubt very much Chris would go that avenue with those vac problem, too bad.

B2Blain Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 All in 1/32: SU-33 conversion Harrier corrections T-45 conversion for Revell Hawk late model F-4E conversion Panavia Tornado corrections I'll second the F-4E for Tamiya - leading edge slats and F-4G conversion would be awesome.

Gripen39 Posted May 20, 2014 Share Posted May 20, 2014 MiG-29 backdate for the Trumpeter K/M to create a 9-12 Fulcrum. F-16A vert stab, plus small inlet / P&WA F100 nozzle to create F-16A or ADF from Tamiya Block 50 F-16CJ Either would be nice Tony How about a set of open air brakes for any 1/72 F-16 kit?

robert61267 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I'd suggest more modern weapons and drop tanks; relatively simple shapes that modelers will want to dress their planes up. Your 'Winders are quite nice, but how about adding some Sparrows, AMRAAMs, Falcons, JSOWs, JDAMs, Mavericks, and Phoenixes of various marks to the lineup? More drop tanks would be welcome, too, especially accurate ones! One of my biggest modeling headaches is making the tanks, and then dealing with the seam where the two halves joined. For some reason, I totally suck at that clean up issue. Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eli Raphael Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Hi Chris, What about some correct MERs and TERs? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan Leduc Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Hi Chris, What about some correct MERs and TERs? Thanks Oh YESS big time..... the Trumpy is too thin and the Tamiya is too fat... Dan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vodnik Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I'm still working on the OH-58D You could scale down your Kiowa goodies to 1/48? I'd love to get some to improve the Italeri kit... But I would also love to get a set of good TERs and MERs in 1/32!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
robert61267 Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) I'd like to see an early F-4 correction/conversion set to convert the Tamiya F-4 to a B, N, or prototype like the Project Sageburner Phantom - think of the Cutting edge 1/48th set but for a 1/32nd model. A Brit Phantom correction would really set the folks all a-twittering, but I could also see the price for that becoming prohibitive. Oh, how about something to convert the 1/32nd Academy AH-1s into the modern AH-1Z? Robert Edited August 16, 2014 by robert61267 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jikdoc Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 How about 8 spoke wheels and a corrected canopy for the Trumpy 1/32 p47N. No one makes either of those Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ghatherly Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I would like to second the request for MER’s and TER’s,from the Vietnam. Tamiya’s are to big but the detail is the nicest of the lot. Trumpy’s are to small. With all of the new Resin products, Decasl, and other goodies out for the Phantoms, these little gems would do rather well. Our sales of F-4 E and G conversion kits are very strong, and with the planned release the F-4B/N conversion set still on for November, the demand for the Racks should be fairly strong. We also need USAF outer wing pylons for the F-4. Keep the faith, Gary GT Resin Products Quote Link to post Share on other sites
durangokid Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 What about 1/32 GBU-12's? Would those be difficult to make? I build mainly 32nd scale and there are no accurate GBU-12's that I can find. All the kit ones are lacking in detail to say the least. They are one of the most used weapons on modern aircraft and I know I would buy a lot of them. Thanks for your consideration, Bryan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
f5guy Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 F-14 intakes for the Tamiya kit should also be welcome considering the number of kits that must be hibernating in modeller's stocks all over the world. Not because of the inaccurate shape (it seems OK), but the lack of trunking for a model of modern expectations. Jens [/quote Yup.... these would be my number one request as well! I've been wanting to start my big Tamiya Tomcat for some time now, but have held off because of the intakes. One day..... Fred K. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scotthldr Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 How about a decent conversion set to convert Hasegawa's 1/48 A-7E to a TA-7C/A-7K Quote Link to post Share on other sites
