discussion What Do You Wish For In 2016?

[BarryW]

A New Year to come and while we know of many releases coming along what modelling releases and surprises would you really wish for even if you think there is no hope?


For me, not much chance of any of these and we know Mr Tamiya san will do his own thing with, probably a bomber version of the Mossie, but I can live in hope.


From HK Models - all in glorious 1:32 scale


Short Sunderland, it would be a massive model, but with a real wow factor and 'do-able' with HKM's wall fixing or maybe with a ceiling fixing.


Handley Page Halifax as above, my favourite bomber and highly under-rated.


B24 Liberator, another that rests in the shadow of another 'heavy'


B26 Marauder, I love the look of these.


From Tamiya - again all in glorious 1/32 scale


Anything with a prop.... yes anything but it really is time we had any of the the following:


Hawker Hurricane Mk1


Bristol Beaufighter to compliment their wonderful Mossie


BP Defiant what a 'turn up for the books' that would be and what a fantastic one to have on the shelf.


From any major mainstream company such as, Kittyhawk, Zoukie Mura, Dragon, Hasegawa, Hobby Boss, Trumpeter's 'A Team'.... All again in 1:32 of course, new tool:


Any Italian or French WW2 fighter, subjects totally overlooked except by short run companies.


Paints:


More AKI Air Series acrylics including:


FAA WW2 set


RAF Desert Air force set


USAAF WW2 set


IJA set


French and Italian WW2 sets


WW2 'Markings' set


Colours individually available from UK stockists (John?)


Over to you and have fun with your fantasy lists....

I'm wishing to be able to get my modelling mojo back in 2016


And off course....World peace

I've been dropping hints about the HK 1/32 Do 335 for the last few weeks. If I'm really lucky the female side of the family might make a joint investment to keep me out the back and out of their way


Cheers

Not much really ........... "A couple of Strippers and a Big Bottle of Baby Oil" will do.

Im currently building the Tamiya 1/32 Mosquito and what a fantastic kit it is.Id like Tamiya to do a 1/32 Blenheim,Fairey Battle,Hurricane an a Beaufort would be nice.But I'd settle for a 1/48 Battle and Beaufort.

For me just good health.


Just had my op cancelled today after sitting in the waiting area for 1.45 hrs. But on returning home received a phone call from the hospital to say the op had been rebooked for Christmas Eve. I should be home for Christmas afternoon if all goes well.

I have insider knowledge that revell are releasing a 1/35 type 82 E German staff car , for those that don't know it's a VW beetle

 

[yak face]

For me Barry i would like to see some Russian ww2 in 1/32 such as the la 5 la7 , and the yak fighters from a mainstream maker such as trumpeter , others i dream about are the yak 28 in either 1/32 or 1/48 and a 1/32 su15 would look amazing too , and a 1/32 CAC Boomerang is just crying out to be made!! I agree its about time someone did a big beaufighter in a modern tooling too. Cheers tony
