Saw this a week or so ago. They think the retail price might be $100 to $150 (US) which equates to about £63 to £94

Still want one though. Only problem is you won't be able to do an early B-17G like the 'box art' suggests as they are only doing it with a staggered waist gun positions

The saga of these models is exactly that,it's been going on for a while for those who remember wingscale.

I hope the plastic materialises this time. As far as I'm aware the B-17 has at least made it to a test model and has recently been seen at Nuremberg.

..... yeah. They got that far with the 1/144 Bismarck and Akagi and then died a death.

I'd be amazed if it was that cheap.

I'm sure someone told me they also had a 1/32 Lancaster in the pipeline as well ?

Adrian

[AlanG]

Yes they do Adrian. And i for one can't wait to see that kit. Although i'll probably never have the chance to own one

[Guest]

Wow just seeing how big this thing is in 48 ca'nt imagine doing that scale,the cost of glue alone would put you in the poor house!

[BarryW]

It looks a real beauty - though I would await the Lancaster if I had a spare hanger to keep it in!!!!

The JU88 is more than big enough

[Guest]

That's very nice, but very big.............almost big enough to sleep under............which is exactly where I'd have to sleep if one turned up at my house............. :/
