Why?  You know someone who builds 1/72?  ;

I'd love to see a *new* 1/72 MiG-3, or any GPW VVS fighter for that matter, from Revell, but I'd be very surprised if this has anything to do with Trumpeter. In fact, it might just be a reboxing of the RPM kit, or the horrible old Cap Croix du Sud MiG-3 which Italeri (Revell's partner in crime) reissued about 10 or 12 years ago. Let's hope it's brand new, but I'm very suspicious!

Does anyone know the release date for the Trumpeter 1/72 MiG-3, by the way?

This is exactlly what comes to my mind as well. I suppose it will be a reboxing. But let's hope for better.

Does anyone know the release date for the Trumpeter 1/72 MiG-3, by the way?

Was the date announced already? I suppose that about Mig-3 1/72 from Trumpeter is only on the level of rumour not more. I don't see a reason why not to announce for Trumpeter that Mig-3 is upcoming if the one what announces Revell is made by them! But again, let's hope for better 
In paper to scale-down from 1/32 to 1/72 it's quite easy but not in plastic

Hi,
I see that Revell did things well in last years. Their MiG-21 was a surprise for me (more for their choice to make it new than for its typical Revell good quality), and I sometimes dream a whole series of warplanes, including jets, from them. However, I will open the box before buying it.
