hooknladderno1 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Revell has a survey up here: http://ideas.revell.de/ideas/ and they're asking for our opinion. Of interest to members here are several rotor craft. I especially like the Bell 407! Check it out! David Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hawkwrench Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 A 1/48 scale MH-47 would have been nice to vote on. Just sayin! Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
salvador001 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) My first vote is for a 1/35 UH-1D/H, then some interesting stuff are a 1/32 A-star, 407, Robinson 22/44, Long Ranger, etc.... Rod. Edited April 14, 2014 by salvador001 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trojan Thunder Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) You realise you can create an account and add your own suggestions to vote for, I have added a few of my own, though none rotary winged since all my wants have been already added. In some cases a few times. I have voted for the MH-53K, Squirrel AS350, A109 Power, UH-1Y and AH-1Y to name a few. I have found you can vote more than once if you come back each day and don't 'log in' Edited April 15, 2014 by Trojan Thunder Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Diamondback Six Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I'd really like to see a CH-53K in 1/48 and 1/72... but I've also noticed their page layout is lacking, and a lot of duplicate entries, like THREE for the C-5 Galaxy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GeejeeZ Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Although I like the idea that a model manufacturer listens to clients, the Revell poll has become a victim of its own succes I'm affraid. It has been there for some months and in the meantime several hundreds of model suggestions have been posted. It loads terribly slowly and has no search- option, so nobody bothers any longer to find the earlier suggestions and just posts his own. Which means that in a lot of cases one model has been suggested several times under different names and I doubt that Revell will take the time to look into that. Scrolling through the suggestions, besides the expected carload of military jets of all sorts, a trend to large models is visible: helicopters in 1:35 and airliners in 1:72. Although quite some helicopters are being suggested, almost none of them gets more than minimal support. When I first visited the site, of the helicopters a 1:48 Mi8 had attracted most support (400 + votes). Now to my surprise a Mi171 and Mi14 got more than 1300 votes! Like Trojan Thunder already mentioned: some people must definitely have logged in more than once or have found other ways to sabotage the results! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) As it stands now, it is not a poll; it is rather a meaningless hodge-podge of ideas from people all over the world. There are some ridiculous (from a financial point of view) suggestions there with dozens of votes. They should have made a preliminary list of subjects they could plausibly do, and post it up to collect votes. Edited April 15, 2014 by KursadA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
troschi Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I consider that this is nothing more than a marketing gag for customer loyalty's sake. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
