Over on Modellversium (aber auf Deutsch) there's a write up on Trumpeter's new Wellington in 72nd.  Colour me tickled pink to say the least.  Here's hoping they do a Coastal job to replace the nice enough Matchbox example.

A mkXIV has already been announced.

I don't like the way the've done the geodetic, but that's just me!
It's not an effing  jump jet.

Nice !

One of my earliest modle memories was building the Matchbox Wellie......my Aunt, Uncle and cousins were up from the States, and I had to sleep in my parents room. I was pretending to sleep and glueing bits together by the light of the moon....and can clearly recall how intrigued I was by that structure.....what a cool aeroplane !

And judging by the look of those sprues, Trump has once again kicked some Japanese butt !

:wub:  
CANADA KICKS arse !!!!

The geodectic surfaces are overdone, but it sure can't be harder to put together than the MPM one *shudders*

In the States, a rattle can of Krylon Grey Primer will fix that.  Mask, spray, wait, wait another couple of days, then sand with a block sander and some wet/dry 400 grit.   It'll be the bees knees!   :wub:      Doing that to the Hasegawa 1/48 Hurricane made the overdone surfaces turn out almost as good as the Airfix!  It was quite pleasing and the technique should work on the Trumpy Wellington.  :thumbsup:

One of the first models I built was the Airfix Wellington, always loved that aircraft. I want to get my hands on a couple of the MPM versions at some point

The Matchbox/Revell Welly is a great kit.
Built one with another two in the stash.
