I.Martin Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 (edited) I am sure that many of you have in mind kits whose release was announced to great fanfare but after awhile and without any explanation nor even issuing an SOS, they simply vanished without a trace.... I remember two kits that even today I would like to become true, the Pilot Replicas' SAAB 107 and the Minicraft's Gulfstream III, both at 1/48.

beingthehero Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Condor announced a 1/72 MiG-25RB to be released after their MiG-25U. Never saw the light of the day. Not sure if they even made any kits after their MiG-25U. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SinisterVampire319 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Was really looking forward to the Gulfstream III too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parche Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Well, to be fair, KH can't do the family model Foxbat until I convert a Revell Foxbat into one. Sorry, I'll get on that after I clear some space on the bench. 😀 Cheers, Dave Quote Link to post Share on other sites
I.Martin Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 One more, Aconcagua's Morane Saulnier 760 Paris 1/48 scale. Still waiting.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt H. Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 The one I am waiting for: KH 1/48 RF-101A/C And is my memory correct, in that in the early 2000s Eduard announced a 1/48th F-4 family? We have the Academy Phantoms now, but I wonder what may have been if a new 1/48th phantom phamily came out 10 years earlier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
parche Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 The one I am waiting for: KH 1/48 RF-101A/C Ditto. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Scaremonger Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 One more, Aconcagua's Morane Saulnier 760 Paris 1/48 scale. Still waiting.... I feel your pain there, pal. I also wish Mr Heredia would do something about this announcement. However; and in fact that it was never officially announced, there was a teaser I still couldn't get over with ever since it was pulled off: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

beingthehero Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 http://www.whatifmodellers.com/index.php?topic=15625.0 Randomly remembered this one. Alanger was going to make a 1/72 "Garpun", which was their idea of what the PAK-FA would've looked like. And then...nothing. Probably didn't help that the actual PAK-FA was unveiled shortly after, but the design of the Garpun looked pretty cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
