Academy's next new 1/48 release ?????

JOLLY GREEN!!!!!!!!!!!

Hell, they could even make it more lucrative by putting out 4 different versions:

HH-3E - USAF Jolly Green Giant (yes Grant...I did take my meds..self prescribed)

CH-3E - USAF SOS bird

HH-3F - USCG Pelican (whattaya say Don?)

HH-3F - Italian SAR bird (Klaus...thinkin 'bout ya brutha)

C'mon Academy.....do us a favor and FINALLY put out a large scale HH-3.

Completely agree with you Sal!
1/35 would be nice, but I'd settle for 1/48 for this one, too.

Thanks, bro!

As for my wish-list it's actually all in 1/35, but some Kamovs would be nice and keeping patriotic an A-129 Mangusta wouldn't be bad at all.

I would LOVE to see a new 1/48 Arny Cobra! AH-1S/F or even an E version. 

I love the old Monogram kit but the molds are shot and its OOP,  so Im relying on my stash nowadays.....Even a Marine bird would hit me right!

John,

Yea, I almost mentioned a good AH-1G, with the 20 mm on the stub wing too! 

I would also like to see a UH-34D.  However, I suspect that Academy's next 1/48 helicopter release would be an MH-53E, because their new CH-53E kit has knotched areas molded into the fuselage for the MH's enlarged sponsons.  I'll bet a dollar that their next kit will be an MH-53E. 

Semper Fi,

Chris

Grandad and Grant,

The rule still stands.  All ya gotta do is show up in Alaska.  BTW, you split the gas cost and fishin is also the mission. 

 Yes, a CH-54 and H-34 would be great to have available!

I've also longed for a 1/48 CH-37...

...and since we're dreaming....

 Take care,

Frank

A-109E/MH-68A!!!!

1/48th would be great, but 1/35th would be even better!!!

 Mi-28N in 1/35!!!

 Also agree with Avus  - Mangusta or/and Ka-29 would be great!

As much as I have a soft spot for Monogram's little kit, I'd love a UH-1b/c 'Nam gunship, or a more up-to-date version of the Little Bird, pref with SOAR markings from Somalia. Geez, even a modern tooled Wessex or Puma would be nice. Oh, & a AH-1 Cobra from 'Nam. Not that I'm greedy or anything.

1:48th

Mangusta, Rooivalk, Havoc, Wz-10 and a decent, up to date Tiger.

Gimme a new Cobra and Huey gunship too....

Jon

I second the request for the A-109 in 1/48 to 1/32 anything but 1/72......thats just too small for that style of bird.

Loved it in Reign of fire.
