Title: New Releases, etc. Post by: John Thompson on October 30, 2008, 10:19:36 PM From today's HobbyTerra newsletter e-mail:
http://www.hobbyterra.com/product.asp?idProduct=1608 It's a 1/72 I-16 type 6 from Amodel; although I'd love for it to be a new mold, it'll probably be another reissue of the old Amodel I-16, with a new decal sheet. I can hope, though! http://www.hobbyterra.com/product.asp?idProduct=1604 1/72 Grumman F8F Bearcat - yes, I know, not a VVS type, but it's from a new manufacturer called Art Model. No indication whether it's a new mold or possibly a reissue of a Sword kit, but that's not the point. Whenever I see a new manufacturer, my hope is always that they will do a 1/72 I-153 or Yak-1b, or maybe even a brand new I-16 type 5! http://www.hobbyterra.com/product.asp?idProduct=1600 1/72 Bf-109B (Ugh!), from Avis - posted here only because, considering Avis seems to be specializing in kits of aircraft from the late 1930's, maybe they will produce the I-153 and I-16 type 5 some day! :D http://www.hobbyterra.com/product.asp?idProduct=1602 1/48 AS-2 starter truck, from UM John Title: Re: New Releases, etc. Post by: Greg C. on October 31, 2008, 03:48:13 AM ..got a little thing going for the I-153 and I-16 type 5 I see!
Might I suggest a F8 Bearcat in what-if VVS markings as a remedy? ;D Title: Re: New Releases, etc. Post by: Dark Green Man on October 31, 2008, 05:11:11 AM I was thinking of getting the AS-2 in 1/72 , but now that it will be in 1/48 I'll get that instead. it would look great with an Eduard I-16 or Classic Airframes I-153 ! I wonder if they will do one of the BZ series of Fuel Trucks.... 8) [/color] |
