Ah but it was MY wishlist Allyne....

I do appreciate that the cheap Revell kits have a place but being in the middle of the JU88 build I would much prefer that such a complex aircraft had the kind of precise engineering and fit of Tammy, Trump and Hassy. Poor and vague location points, bad fit and those terrible instruction sheets Revell provide are driving me up the wall!

More "Korean War" era figures would be nice, mainly civilian as you can improvise the military stuff to an extent.

1/24th DB5

1/24th MKI Ford Esscort Mexico

1/24th MKI Lotus Cortina

1/72nd or 1/48th Avro Manchester

1/48th Short Stirling

1/35th British Modern Figures

1/35th or 1/48th British Army Oshkosh HET

1/35th Warthog

1/35th Wlfhound

I've got a bit of a fascination with experimental aircraft, and would love a model of the soviet Ekranoplan, the largest of these ground effect aircraft was known as the 'Caspian Sea Monster' it was a huge plane so would have to be in a smallish scale, here's a pic. M

Not really a model but still plastic ......

You know DVDs have a moulded shape which includes cutouts to get your fingers underneath to lift out the DVD? Why do 90% of these cutouts have a sort of 'wall' which is the same height as the rest of the moulding around the DVD so you STILL can't get your fingers in there!:rant:

How about if some good designer had a go at producing DVD boxes which worked properly?

Don't know if this counts but do the same kit but with many different schemes.

One kit, three decal scheme options per box, three (or more) boxings, say Panzer III from every theater it was in, East, West, Italy, North Africa, etc. so same model kit but you choose which scheme you want OOB.

Then you don't have to trawl the web looking for after market decals for your particular build. Or if you want to build lots of the same vehicle with lots of different markings, you can.

Just a thought.

Oh, and some "Dog fight doubles" from other conflicts, such as Korea, Vietnan, Three Day War, etc.
