AMTech seems to be coming out with five XP planes at 1/48 this year. I think this is great. A number of us out here are looking for relatively unique planes to build aside from the run-of-the-mill Mustangs, 262s, Zeroes, Corsairs, etc.
#1 and #2 were failed variations of the Curtis P-36, #3 and #5 were variations of their obvious predecessors. And #4 was slated to be a V-1 interceptor and looked like a very fast hybrid of the P-47 and P-51.
AA 489213 (N)XP-42 (Ltd) 1/48
AA 489214 (N)YP-37 (Ltd) 1/48
AA X48001 XP-40 Q-2 Ultimate Warhawk 1/48
AA X48002 XP-72 Ultrabolt 1/48
AA X48003 XP-47H "Hemibolt" 1/48
Could AMTech be going after niche in the market? Is this a trend we will be seeing from AMTech? If so I got a list of X planes I'd like to see (@ 1/48 scale of course)!
