Koen L Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Forgot one in my shortlist, an accurate Vigilante family (RA-5C in particular) would be nice as well. So not like Trumpeter's mix of versions with horrible shape issues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So not like Trumpeter's mix of versions with horrible shape issues. Yes Koen, I would love to see a new RA-5C Vigilante. With AMK and some of the other companies that want to give us accurate model kits, it's possible that we could see a new rendition of this subject, done right of course.It's a real shame with Trumpeter did to it!

B.Sin Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) A new Su-24 would be nice. Trumpeter really screwed the pooch on that one also! Edited October 26, 2015 by B.Sin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I can't see an RA-5C being a viable choice. It's cool, and it's big, but I think Trumpeter proved it's really just not that popular. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
npentic Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 What we really need in 1/48 are FJ-2 and FJ-3 Fury. And we need them promptly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I know that I, or for that matter all of us, would like for AMK to redo most of Trumpeter's catalogue but that is just not feasible and unreasonable money wise. I believe that AMK should concentrate on subjects not done yet such as the MiG 31 and G-91. Nothing too exotic as it is a business after all and you want to sell lots of models so you can make more new models. Relying on polls do not really tell you a great deal it seems. I remember reading that Monogram had some sort of poll results that put the Ju 52 and Catalina near the top. They released them and the sales have been disappointing from what I have heard. I may be wrong though. I have both these kits and they are wonderful, great kits. I am just so happy that they are releasing stuff in my scale, 1/48. :) Keep them coming and I will keep buying.

We (AMK) just want to develop kits as good as we can, quietly and peacefully. If you guy give us some suggestions, and we think that is good, we will try our best to make it good. But we don't want hardly competitions between manufacturers. My opinion is, this company is already doing quite good, and keep improving the technology. We did even learn some technology from their plastics. Maybe, their scale is big, that may need more time to change or improve. So, if you want us make any particular kit, please simply leave your opinions here or in our Facebook. Cheers! Sio P.S. Do I know you? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ed Rivera Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Sio, it would be nice to see a accurate 1/48 or 1/32 scale F-16ADF in the market soon! Cheers! Ed, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scvrobeson Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 I'd like to see a 1/32 scale Mig15 that is also hi tec. Then following with a Mig17 and a Mig19. Once that project is done, follow it with the F86 family (especially the Canadian built versions) gary If you would like a hi-tech Mig-15 kit, HpH has a beautiful one on the market. Probably the ultimate kit of the -15, and definitely worth the purchase. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ed Rivera Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 Sio, there are to many F-16Cs out in the market today and not one of the ADF version especially in 1/32 scale. I am trying to built a F-16-ADF of the Italian AF and another one of the Puerto Rico ANG. Ed, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Sio, I believe that if you do a Su-34 in 1/48, the least of your worries would be competition from other companies. I know you said you will not do a Su-27, but a Su-34, Su-35 (without canards), Su-47 or a PAK-FA T-50 are four airframes that would make many people happy and that any other company has done so far in plastic. Of course in 1/48 scale. Eargerly waiting for Part 2 of future releases. Juan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
punder Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 (edited) Would love to see recce Foxbats--much more interesting paint schemes, exports etc. And the pointy nose looks cool. Yefim Gordon talks about wing planform differences between interceptor and recce variants, which I have never managed to see; and a length plug in the MiG-25BM nose which likewise I have not found. Mysteries to be solved! So that, a proper Flagon A/D/F, and maybe a Fantan would suit me nicely. :woot.gif:/> EDIT just want to add that I have a couple of contacts at the Ukranian State Aviation Museum who have been amazingly responsive and helpful. They have a Flagon F and a MiG-25R in their amazing collection. Posted openly since Sio's PM doesn't come up?

B.Sin Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 (edited) Sio, I hope there's at least one more Soviet / Russian subject announced in part 2. Edited October 27, 2015 by B.Sin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B.Sin Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 (edited) Ilyushin Il-28 "Beagle"? V.P. I would prefer an Su-15, but an IL-28, I'll take it. There is another company that's producing an IL-28 in 1/48th scale, and a Yak-28. Could AMK and the other company be one in the same?
