Anyone ever built (or seen) the 1:48 vac form from Roberts Models (or his colleague's)? And a 1:48 Lynx would be most welcomed, too. B) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gremlin6 Posted August 29, 2005 Author Share Posted August 29, 2005 Greetings! Just to let you know, if anyone happens to come by and see thru this post, could you please at least just reply with ur username, we need as much support for scale-model helicopters as any other scale-model aircraft. You would be supporting the need and request for scale-model helicopters for future releases and the manufacturers would, maybe at least consider releasing what we, the modeler demands! Thank you Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PeepingBear Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 1/48 scale Navy Lynx (old and new style) OH-58D Kiowa Warrior Upgraded Bo-105 (RoG went sloppy on that one, reissueing the original ESCI kit. It would have taken just ONE parts tree!) NH-90 production version and when they are really in use (don't go off half cocked): V-22 AH-1Z Horrido! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SebastianP Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 Have you seen Italeri's new 1/48 V-22? Boxart shows a production model... SP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gremlin6 Posted August 30, 2005 Author Share Posted August 30, 2005 ATTENTION!?!? Over at FSM, they are doing a dream survey, so for all you helicopter modelers, vote in 'other' and at the bottom, list what you want to see. At the top of the list I think we can all agree on a 1:48th CH-47D Chinook, right, so make sure you put that in if you want. :blink: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
