The Junkers 86 peaked my interest. I don't recall seeing it pop up that often and it's one of those aircraft I've always wanted to know more about.

hmm, not a lot unfortunately, the updated EH.101 kit will be useful to make an RN. example, the Seabat too il pick up to make an early UK. example, a pity Italeri have not reissued their H.19, a nice kit and not so easy to find now

c'mon Italeri/Revell we want a new 72 scale Hercules

Would be nice if they did the H-19 as its own Westland Whirlwind variant!

That Vietnam set is very cool! I wonder how much it'll be.

A 1/48 Agusta-Bell AB-206B-1 JetRanger - 2778, on page 5.
It's in there again, still yet to be released. ESCI/ERTL boxings aren't cheap and it would be nice to have an affordable option on the market again.

What's the Italeri Me 210 like?

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I built it a very long time ago, probably when it first came out, and it was of its time. O.K. back then, but probably a bit clunky by today's standards and the fit wouldn't match a lot of newer kits either, but it didn't leave scars. As a company they've probably always been in the middle of the pack "of their time".

Not much help I know mate, but as I say it didn't leave scars.
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

So as I have been building a lot of 70's Hasegawa kits, it shouldn't be a problem?
Thanks Chris & Lee.
I've always thought the 210/410 had a lot of potential for kitbashing.

Shouldn't be mate.

You've got me musing on what might have happened if the Hungarian's had decided to try and develop it ? After all they were building them. Maybe radial engines ?

Ooh, some interesting stuff there -

A 1/35 Higgins PT boat? Let's hope they scale it down to 1/72, I can't find info on what else I could adapt for the hull.
It would look good in the late-war 'gunboat' configuration...

1/32 NATO aircrew and ground crew? Potentially useful for converting.

The Vietnam War battle set looks cool, nice to see these kits available again in one place/box.
**EDIT - Zac, IMHO you won't see much change out of $100 KiwiBucks...

And the 1/35 Partisans are back! Hope this means the 'British Rest Camp' is due to be seen again - I've been given to understand it started as a Bofors crew (check the poses) and was 'adapted'.
This would make sense, as their Bofors gun has a VERY "1970's kit" vibe to it...

The 1/35 Higgins could be a good addition to my Royal Australian Marines brown-water fleet - got a spare Bofors floating around, too. :thumbsup:

It looks to have one already, on the rear deck per the Elco.

Or were you thinking more the 'Nasty'-class version with one 'up front' also?
