Speedy Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Hi all, In my search on the web I suddenly ran into this. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/1134050-hk-models-01e11-phantom-fg-1 If this is true, it would be great! Checked HK Models site and found no history of this article so far. Anyone seen this before? Kind regards, Robert Jan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ben Brown Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 There has been a lot of discussion about it for several years on a couple of other forums. One comment I saw recently was they were concentrating on getting the Lancaster out, first, and then they were going to move the F-4 onto the front burner. I don't know how accurate that info is, but fingers crossed. I don't have room for 1/32 models, but I'll make an exception for a 1/32 Royal Navy FG.1! Ben Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Speedy Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 Hi Ben, It didn't make to any exhibition so far, like they did with the Lancaster, so indeed fingers crossed for 2019 to announce this beauty, I hope. Then will take another year to release it I assume, so I can finish my current builds😎. Just got my compressor back. Tomorrow I'm in airbrush business again. will speed up some works I've collected in my cabinets. Kind regards, Robert Jan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mstor Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 When I did 1/32 scale stuff, a British Phantom was kind of my Holy Grail. I had the Wild Hare/Cutting Edge conversion kit, a very rare beast, but never got around to building it. Eventually sold it. If HK come out with this I would be VERY tempted. I LOVE the British Phantoms. Have half a dozen of various Hasegawa boxings. Sadly, I have no room. Its why I got out of 1/32 scale to begin with. Oh well... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Depending on price.....Yep. I am in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Speedy Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 From pricing their WOII Acs it will be around $160.00 up to $200.00 I guess(hope its less). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skyhawk174 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Interesting news. I think this has been on many people's want lists and judging by the prices for the CE 1/32 conversion there are those out there that will buy an injection kit when it is released. I have seen prices for those CE conversions in the $600 -$800 range. Wowza. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sold mine with doner kit and extra aftermarket for $800. Probably could have gotten much more on eBay but it went to a good cause. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wafu Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Started saving now, 10pence per day should get the ball rolling😉 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tony.t Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I think 50p a day would be more realistic if you're looking to buy around December 2019. Suspect there will be other editions of the Lancaster @ £400 a pop before we mere mortals are allowed to admire any test shots of the F-4K Phantom II. Kitty Hawk might even have a 1/32 SEPECAT Jaguar out by then. Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
