    Most Wanted for 2025


    Hello Chaps,

    We are fast approaching the time of year when most manufacturers will be showing us all their forthcoming new kits and 2025 release schedules.

    So what new kits are you hoping for and would anything tempt you to try a new genre?

    My new tool hopes for 2025 are:

    1/72 H.P. Halifax
    1/72 or 1/48 Sepecat Jaguar
    1/72 or 1/48 Augusta Westland Merlin Mk.2 or Mk.4

    If anyone releases a new 1/35 Alvis Stalwart that would tempt me to (temporarily) join the “dark side” 😂.

    Anyone else got a wish list?

    Geoff.

    I'm hoping for a new/modern 1/24 kit of a 'Bf 109 G6'. Cheers

      I think I would like to do a nice Lancaster bomber, did one once when I was a kid, don't think I made a very good job of it, so would like to do a "proper" job on one now that I'm back into the hobby.

      Would also like to do HMS Fearless, (the last steam powered UK Warship) for similar reasons as above, did one when I was a kid and remember really liking it, with a little helicopter and amphibious vehicle on the back. A new version of that ship would be great....

          Still hoping that Revell or for that matter anybody will produce a 1/32 Lunar lander/module. I cant believe Revell would bring out the 1/32 Apollo Command Module and not follow up with the lunar lander but they did just that.

              A 1/72 Blackburn Beverley. The only kit out there at the moment is a 1/144 Mikromir and it's not very good, expensive and hard to find.

              1:1 preferably, but I’d settle for anything I can get Geoff…..

                Id like a 1 .144th scale Nimrod and some decent 1.35th U .S tank crews in wet/Cold weather clothing for the 1970s and 1980s.

                    Had to google that Steve as I’d never heard of it 😳.

                    What an awesome looking machine 😮

                  I have the 1/16 (with interior) Takom offering but 1/35 is my preferred scale - as you say, an awesome looking beast!

                      A new tool English Electric Lighting in 1/48 from airfix would be nice, along with a British
                      Phantom.
                      Some NEW boats from Italeri in the 1/35 range would be nice. RAF Rescue launch...whale back MTB?

                          If you can still find the ESCI kit. It comes with a crew.
