Ohyeahand... I'd like a nice new Republic XF-91 Thunderceptor in 1/72nd scale please: either version (or both!). I've got a couple of the prehistoric Lindberg 1/48th jobs, but they're ummm interesting..... :o

Probably been said before (even by me) but:

1/700th Post-war British-built warships, particularly a decent Leander(s).

1/700th more weapon/fittings sets, because the famous Pit Road weapons sprue, good as it is, still has several notable gaps in it, i.e. Mk.13, Sea Sparrow, 76/62 Compact...

1/72nd Gnat Mk.1/Ajeet.
1/72nd HAL Marut.
1/72nd (or even 1/144th) Post-war British transport aircraft, i.e. Argosy, Hastings, Belfast, Beverley, Andover etc..

1/76th FV432 or several.
1/76th Ferret.
1/76th Fox.
1/76th 1960s/1970s British infantry, i.e. with SLRs/Sterlings etc...
1/76th Stalwart. :wub: (HOW many sci-fi projects could you make from that?)

1/76th Post-war French armour! There are one or two things available of varying quality, but it still doesn't do justice to their vast range of export stuff, particularly armoured cars.

Weaver, you do know there are three other Modern weapon sprues by Pitroad ? - They had a JMSDF/USN set, NATO, Soviet and and an updated JMSDF set when the early ones went to Dragon, these have the MK13, Sea Sparrow, ASROC and the guns your looking for

Ah, clicked a memory there: does the JMSDF/USN set have a couple of helos in it?

Don't think I've ever seen one with a Mk.13 in it though - I will go looking.

Rickshaw: do a search for the FFG/DDG numbers under "reviews" on that error page then click on the first 1/700th result.

Danish inter-war infantry, 20mm Madsen gun in various mountings and a Nimbus E motorcycle in 1/72.

Yay! The Mighty Nimbus!  :wub:

Aeroclub did/do the Madsen Machine Gun in 1/72nd.
Yeah, but that's the LMG. I'm looking for the AA/AT gun they Danish army put on motorcycles.
Actually, that's another set I'd like to see. The entire family of Nimbus E's in 1/72 or 1/35. There was a gun carrier, a stretcher carrier, a radio/command car, an ammunition carrier and lastly on with the 7mm Madsen gun.

You could make the 20mm quite easily by using a .30 cal MG in 1/35.  I'd use a .30 cal to start with and build up the barrel length with a piece of wire and add a drum magazine from a piece of plastic rod.
True, but I mostly do 1/72.

Yes but they're vac-form, not injection-moulded.

Actually only half vacuform or even only 35% of it is, the rest of the kit is resin and white metal.

Okay then: "but they're vac-form resin and white metal, not injection-moulded". My point is that I would like injection-moulded kits of these subjects.

I get what you mean Weaver --- and you're right, an injection kit of any of those in 1/72 would be great.
