ALF18 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Does anyone have any news on Tanmodel? They announced work on a 1/32 scale F-5A/B series ages ago. When I go to their site, I can't see any products, let alone updates on the F-5s. Anyone know what's happening with this company? ALF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Weren't they also working on a 1/48 SR-71? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Williams Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 They released a 1/48 RF-84F and 1/24 Bayraktar TB2 drone, but think they folded up soon after that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They ambitiously announced a ton of projects and only really released a couple in the decade since then. They never 'released' their 1/48 F-5A anyways, iirc and according to the story molds were sold to a UK company, Tiger hobbies Limited, that showed and sold them in one Telford and never seen since then.

Mr.T Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Perhaps Jetmads picks it up. Tanmodels disappeared (out of business) I heard via DutchDecals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jgrease Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I believe the owner of Tanmodel - Baris had some serious health issues. He's alright now but I don't think there's anything new coming anytime soon... John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
