ModelLuver Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Hello, I am new here, but love to build model Airliners! I know there are a few 1/72 Regional planes out there. Like the BPK CRJ, Liberty had a really nice Embraer 120, and I noticed a 1/72 Beechcraft 1900. Any rumours on any 1/72 embraer 170 or 190's? I think BPK may be working on a CRJ-700 in 1/72. I would really like to get my hands on a 1/72 ATR, Fairchild Metro, or any other mass produced regional Airliners! I just can't justify a 1/144 build, as they are just too small to me. Is Liberty still selling the 1/72 embraer 120? Oh, and am I missing anything that may trick my trigger?!!! Thanks!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trojan Thunder Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 No idea on the Embraers in 1/72. Yes BPK are working on the CRJ-700 to go with their 100 and 200 kits. Also in work are the A320 and B737-800 to go with their B737-200. Amodel have recently released the Beech 1900C and D, Jetstream 31 and 32 and some Bizjet types are on the way such as the Falcon 10, and 50 and Gulfstream G550 RVHP did the Metro III and Beech 1900 some time ago as well as a number of other Beech 300 variants.

waltmert Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Broplan just announced a Westwind. Broplan makes Citations, Gulftreams and Piper Navajos among others. All vacuform kits. RVHP has lovely Learjets, King Airs, Metros, ERJ among others. All resin kits. Both brands in 1/72 scale and easily found at Hannants and Aviation Megastore Walter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ModelLuver Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 Thanks guys! I will have to look at RVHP for sure. I am thinking of doing a Metro. Does anyone make 1/72 decals for the Metro? Perhaps an old Skywesy Airlines? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waltmert Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Nazca decals has a couple of Metro decals and so does Draw decals. i Am sure they will scale them up for you. i think Flightpath had a couple too. RVHP metro is much nicer than Broplans but it is all resin Walter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
