My Modeling Wishlist for Each Manufacture


Recommended Posts

Here is my wish list, by manufacture. I list by manufacture as each seems to have strengths and areas where they do their best work.

AMK: Looking forward to the G-91 and F-14 but please consider an F-100 in 48th.

Revell: A 32nd scale Rafale would be awesome as would a 32nd scale Stearman

Eduard: A brassin two stage Merlin conversion for the Tamiya Mosquito in 48th

Kinetic: An Early F-8 Crusader like an H. As well as an A-1E/EA-1 etc in 48th

Zvezda: Anything

ICM: A P-63 in 48th

Italeri: Get your H-21 out in 48th

Airfix: For 2017 a 48th scale B-17

Academy: An F-4E in 48th

Trumpeter and Hobby Boss: Care about what you do rather than just churning out numbers of kits

This would be sweet indeed. I really want to build a VF-111 F-8C. I know the Hasegawa F-8E/F is quite nice and there is a conversion kit out there to backdate it, but it would be nice to have a good early Crusader OOB.

For me its pretty simple....

New Tool

1/72: F-5E/F, early F-8s + RF-8.

1/48: Nothing

1/32: F-5E/F, F-106A, F-102A, F-101B

1/144th: C-5, C-141

Thankfully it looks like Meng will be doing one of my previous top requests.... a 72nd F-106A/B. Thank you Meng!

Early British jets in 1/72, more MiG-29 variants (though I expect Zvezda will be getting to these), including the latest ones/MiG-35 etc, CF-100, CT-114, Argus... and I'd love a Yak-1 or Yak-1b in 1/32.

After purchasing my first AMK kit, there are few other manufacturers kits I will buy now. I have little time for ill fitting plastic caused by poor planning. Hopefully AMK's G-91 will be out in 2016.

I hope so Craig. Certainly are very far ion research stage now. Lots of our friends in Portugal sending us information.

Thank you very much for the kind post about our kits by the way. It is nice to know the hard work is appreciated.

It's simple really. A new 1/48 F-111 family. I would've thought Hasegawa had done this by now since their 1/72nd offering is the best in any scale. And I don't think I need to go on and on about how crappy the current 1/48 kits out there of this aircraft are. So if Eduard, AMK, Kinetic, FMK, GWH or even Hasegawa want to step up that would be fantastic!

Wish trumpeter or hobby boss give us 1:72 versions of the MiG-19 family, including the Q-5 fantan, the J-7 family (Chinese developed variants of the MiG-21). While they are at it, please scale their MiG-23s down to 1:72.

I won't say no if Eduard scale down their MiG-21s to 1:72 either.

I hear you calling! I'd love to see Hasegawa do the complete A/B26 family!!!!

Oh boy!! I'm going to add some non flyers in the mix as well, so hang with me!...

22

*Airfix...redo you instructions to the standard you showed me your capable of in the HE111P kit!!!

*AMK....please, please do the complete F100 family. Then to make yourself an icon to all modelers; please do the F111. Everybody so far seems to have gave it a half hearted try. I think you'll send it over the top.

*Asuka/Tasca...really pretty easy. Just re-release the M4a2 in Russian markings and a USMC version. I'm good for at least four kits each.

*AFV.... no I have not forgot you! Two kits please! I want an injection molded M37 truck really bad. Then take a serious look at the M54 truck

*Bronco... How about Soviet JS-2 tank that we can afford? Then maybe a new and accurate T60 and T70 light tank.

*Hasegawa... you are cast with the task of kitting the A/B26 bomber family in 1/72.

*GWH... I really want some more SWS half tracks. BUT! What I really want is a very nice Lockheed Hudson in your standard 1/48th scale. Then start your research on a Tigercat!!!!!!!!!

*Kinetic...How about a P63 in Russian markings that's as good as the new P39?

*Tamiya...how about a 1/32 high tech kit of the of one of these three? The F7 series Tigercat, the P47d razor back! Lastly think Typhoon! (Note: I'd love a Wildcat or a P40 as well)

*Revell... Everybody wants a new FW190A8; me too! But I also want to see you do the FW190F9 and also the A9. Then drop a bomb and do an A5 or an A6 Butcher Bird!! Lastly I think that upscaling the Stearman to 1/32 would be a winner in everybody's eyes! After buying the new (and much improved) Halifax, I think it's time to do some revisions to the older Halifax (your two thirds of the way there already!)

*Zvezda...where is the BF109G6?

AFAIK, the owner of Wolfpack design announced the plan for their own new tooling items including F-5E/F, T-38A/C, RF-8A/G in 1/72. Some of them were cancelled due to the announcement of other manufacturers (1/72 F-106, I guess). Since they have been busy designing items for some Chinese companies, their own lineup seems to be released slowly.
