Oh crumbs, PLEASE let someone do a better 21 than the Airfix kit, preferably with some landing gear that's strong enough to support the model!


Revell did one a few years ago which is due to be released again

A self-cleaning workbench would be very useful, just now.

Just a permanent work bench would do for me.  :banghead:

Sure, I'll throw my hat into the ring.

1/48 Sukhoi T-50
A new-tool 1/48 OV-10 Bronco, with option parts to convert it to the various marks
1/48 G.222/C-26 Spartan
A new/re-pop of the 1/48 F-20
1/48 X-29

More 1/48th modern armour would be nice, as would more Hasegawa Macross Variable Fighters in 1/48th.

And I'd love to see a 1/48th conversion for the F-15S/MTD as well. This is a wish list, after all...!

If it's fantasy time, can I go for AFFORDABLE versions of these ----which had better be in small scale so that display space is available
Saro Princess  (or Duchess!)
Bristol Brabazon
R100
Short Sperrin
Airspeed Ambassador
Short Shetland
Saro Lerwick
Anything flown by Imperial Airways between 1925 and 1940
DH Flamingo
The Mercury/Maia composite
Vickers Windsor

and a 1/72 Saro jet flying boat fighter with Korean War FAA decals

WELL!   I did say it was a fantasy list!!!

Added later....can I go totally outside the box, and ask for a Blue Streak--------I'd ideally like to make a "Black Prince" one of these days.

Complete fantasy time?
Airfix to knock out a new 1/72 mould of the Rotodyne with full interior detail (including passengers - with ear defenders natch).
Aoshima to de-customise their Mad Max 2 interceptor back to a stock XB Falcon Hardtop and add full under bonnet detail.
Meng to capitalise on their tie in with Cat and produce a D6R Swampy, 12G Grader and 725 Moxy in 1/24.
Kari Byron.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

Amazing, that list would mirror mine pretty exactly, had I actually made one of course.  ;D

You could have had my Contrail Windsor kit for free about a year ago. It didn't sell on eBay after two re-lists and eventually I gave it away. But then it WAS a Contrail kit I suppose.....  <_<
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

If Airfix are thinking of re releasing the Bristol Freighter or Super Freighter.
AModel to lower there prices by a third.
A new Lockheed Neptune with alternative engines in 1/72 scale.
1/24 or 1/25 LDV or British Leyland Sherpa panel van. Drove one of these with a V8 engine, went like a greyhound out of the traps at a race meeting.

Still got one. Look at it every now and again and go  :blink: :banghead: :blink:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

1/32 im F-106A/B (Maybe Trumpeter can scale up their 1/48 Dart?)

and i'd second a half decent F-106A/B in 1/72 too!  :rolleyes: please!  :rolleyes:

I'll throw my hat in for a 1/72 Dart. :thumbsup:

We need a Viggen.  And any Swedish stuff to replace Heller's lot, they're still good but something more modern would be nice.
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.
