THis one is always fun. Right now, I'm wishing/hoping for:

1/35 M198 155mm howitzer (USMC)
1/48 CH-53D or E (USMC)
1/35 AAV or EFV (the new USMC amtrac)

and I wouldn't complain if the CH-46 and -53 were made in 1/35 as well as 1/48.

A better assortment of 1/35 helos and a/c.
AH-1G Cobra
AH-1J Sea Cobra
HH-3 Seaking
A-1E Skyraider
A-1H Skyraider
OV-10 Bronco
O-1 Birddog
O-2 Skymaster

Decent crew figures, sitting, standing, doing maintenance, you get the picture.

In 1/48, there are just two that I can think of off the top of my head.
A-1E Skyraider
C-123 Provider

That's all. For now!!!

And just about any general aviation aircraft in 1/32 with the sort of details lavished on it that we have come to expect from top of the line military subject kits.

QUOTE: Academy Stuart or Honey

QUOTE: Acdemidy Stuart,Honey

I picked up the Honey with the interior a few weeks ago. Took a look in the box and had a peek and the instructions, and it looks a sweet kit. Only problem that I've read about so far is the indy link tracks. Seems they're very small and hard to work with.

I want a 1/35 scale Dora railgun, as well as more 1/35 engineering vehicles.
Would also LOVE a 1/24 (or close enough) injection moulded Mclaren F1, the road car.

I'm for wishing that there were more general aviation planes like the King Airs kitted in larger scales.

I would also like to see a Trumpeter make a 1/350 scale of a modernized Essex class carrier complete with all the aftermarket goodies. Scratchbuiding and kitbashing one was fun for a while, but now I'm asked to build another one of the Oriskany and only have less than a year to do it in.
