ChesshireCat Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 saddest thing in our world is that the best F100 kit is forty years young! The Trumpeter kit is something, but not an F100 anything!! You could get rich with a modern new tooled F100 that is correct gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites

F-100, F-105, A-5, A-7, F-111 etc. All except for maybe the A-7 badly need a better representation in 1/48 scale. Yet the standard attitude is those kits are new enough and therefore must be good enough even though all the faults with them are very obvious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ikar Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 What about a T-39 and a C-140? For helicopters a good H-43. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
model junky Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 I would like to see some kits of the Convair 880 or 990 (1/144 or 1/72) Always liked the looks of those old birds, the shock cones on the trailing edge of the wings were very distinctive on those 4 engine jetliners.

Cajun21 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) I would like to see a 1/32nd Hamp by Hasegawa or Tamiya. Very under represented aircraft. Cheers Itch Edited October 7, 2021 by Cajun21 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ReccePhreak Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 On 6/14/2021 at 4:15 AM, Stephen said: 1/48 Vought RF-8A/G Crusader. I agree with that, as well as a 1/72 boxing. A recce Crusader is way overdue, especially in the markings of the Cuban Missile Crisis (And Vietnam War). Larry Quote Link to post Share on other sites

junkman3353 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) F-86A in 1/48. Come on! Sterling combat history, longevity, oh-so-many colorful schemes both regular Air Force and ANG. Spitfire PRXI in 1/48. Airfix has the wing in the PRXIX kit and just needs a modification of the Mk IX fuselage and a new windscreen/canopy. And maybe the XIX would work there too. I have many plans for model companies money. Edited October 15, 2021 by junkman3353 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I’ll have be disappointed with another Spitfire Mk whatever or Mustang with mod 15 rivets instead of 14 slag away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
