dnl42 Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Ooh, that is tasty! With a 13.33" wingspan and 14.03" length, it will be a good sized model! I'm happy to see they also plan to release 1/32 O-1 and O-2, but would have been thrilled with 1/48. sigh... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 Might have to get one of the O-2's. I have a fair number of hours on them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dave Roof Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Glad I've never parted with my Revell C-5! Now to pick up a C-17 again, as well as a few other 1/144 cargo aircraft and rebuild that part of the collection. Really looking forward to the O-2 and O-1 in 32nd scale also!

Eric B. Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Great info : VC-10 and C-141!! C-141 has been on my wishlist for years, especially after I was able to put my hands on a 1/144 C-5 a few years back. Until then the C-5 was my aim, then it was the C-141. I was surprised the C-141 did not catch more manufacturers interest.. well done Roden. Eric B. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt H. Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Finally! I still do not understand how the C-141 has been overlooked in 1/144th all these years, but thankfully Roden has stepped up. I am in for at least one, maybe two. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted February 6, 2016 Author Share Posted February 6, 2016 And if they don't do an A, it's an easy conversion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slartibartfast Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 The 1:32 Cessna Skymaster looks to be my first Roden purchase. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Teeradej Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Really glad to see this good news. Eventually my almost finished C-5 build will have a sister sitting beside. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Brown Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 And if they don't do an A, it's an easy conversion. So, will we be seeing some NMF A and Lizard B decals from Fundekals? Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Koen L Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 "Hanoi Taxi" would be nice as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Really glad to see this good news. Eventually my almost finished C-5 build will have a sister sitting beside. :yahoo:/> I took this photo over 25 years ago. Finally we get a C-141. Will we ever get an An-225 ??? http://web.archive.org/web/20071109044008/http://www.habu2.net/aeropix/okc90/images/an-225-0.jpg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B-ONE27 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Hope we get some nice aftermarket decals along with it, MAC/AMC would be gravy...want to do a Mcguire 438th or Andrews AFRES 459th jet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Eastern Express announced one in 2007 or so (?), but there hasn't been a hint of it since... Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
K5054NZ Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 I'm happy for those who've longed for a Starlifter - tis a very nice-looking machine - but the idea of a 1/32 Bird Dog is very exciting for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JeskiM Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Below are some pics of a 1/144th C-141B next to an in-progress 1/144th C-5. Gives you some idea of the size comparison. The C-141B kit was resin. It was created by Scott Doepker. I would highly recommend it; that is if he is still making it. When I got it, he was only making them by request. I'll probably buy the Roden one anyways. Would love to have another C-141. - Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Teeradej Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Matt, what a great collection! Personally I think those trash haulers always look really cool in Euro scheme. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mercury Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I'll join in on the "it's about time" club!! Will be great to put this alongside other 1/144 cargo aircraft. That list is growing. Now, what scheme to do it in... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scott Smith Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 I've got the Anigrand built and ready for paint. Been holding off since I wanted to come up with an in flight stand to match my C-5. Lots of thin resin in a few areas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Brown Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 JeskiM - Very nice! I have Scot's C-141A and B kits. I need to build them someday. Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites
