I think it is more fun that the 1/72 TSR.2 is on that list :D

Hey!!! weres the 32nd scale C 17?
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Size (of the stash) matters.

I hope it won't take that long for them to repop the TSR.2!  :rolleyes:  :banghead:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Now I'm game for a laugh as much as the next person, and yes the list's a joke, but.....actually that would be quite an important release for Spit buffs. ;D ;D

Glad to see somebody picked up on the Spitfire III - I would love a kit of it (once we have a 1/72 Spitfire F.22/F.24 and Seafire FR.46/FR.47)

A man after my own heart.  Well, yes you've been able to get 1/72 short run injection and resin 21s/22s/24s/45s/46/47s for a while but c'mon Mr Mainstream, pull your finger out and get it sorted!  ;D ;D
