Round 2 acquisition of Hawk and Lindbergh; which old kits would you like to see?

That's good news!

I'd like to see Lindberg's Avro Triplane and Bristol Boxkite.  Those were supposed to be re-release a couple of years ago, but weren't. :(

 I would love to see the old Hawk Beta 1 atomic bomber.

Though I still have one of those in my stash along with an AURORA Russian Nuclear Powered Bomber........I want at least two more for different "squadrons" - with the original fluorescent plastic " flames "

Were those the ones also sold under the Pyro brand?  I love pre-WW1 planes, a genre sure missing from the kit market!  I have one of the Pyro Boxkites in my stash but could sure use the Triplane. I'd appreciate anyone repopping those kits.  Or, wouldn't it be nice to see new kits of pre-war subjects with today's latest molding technology?

A tip.  Since those pre-war planes did not usually cover the wheel spokes, Tom's modelworks WW1 spoke sets certainly look great on those models!

I have a Beta that I was able to get at a swap meet for about half the usual collectible price because it was missing one landing gear door. The two Beta's that I built as a kid sadly were  tossed out by my Mom when I moved out. I'm think I'm going to go ahead and build the one I have now unless I can build a re-release. And I agree the re-release definitely must have the clear fluorescent flames!

I haven't been able to track down another Aurora Russian Nuclear Powered Bomber but I bought the Anigrand 1:144 resin kit of the Myasishchev M-50 which was the real plane that the Aurora kit was based on.

I'm not sure if they were originally Pyro's kits, Don.  I didn't know they existed until I saw the reissue announcement a couple of years ago.  They are unusual kits, and I like old planes.  I've got a set of Tom's spokes already. :)
