AM's 1/48 SB2U Vindicator released to distributors yet?

This is a kit I've been waiting ever so anxiously for. Whistling [:-^] Actually turned down a couple oportunities to acquire HiPM's 1/48 SB2U Vindicator. I know it's Accurate Miniatures policy to not disclose actual release dates, but any distributors out there seeing these on their shelves yet?

Boy did you make a good decision to not buy HiPM's Vindicator. A very poor kit. I too have been drooling waiting for the AM Vindicator so I can fill a gap in my Navy collection. A couple of months ago the same question was posted and an AM representative posted the response " Soon ". I hope it's not like their Dauntless release which was advertizesd as "Soon" for over 2 years. Oh well, I'm pretty sure it will be worth the wait.

That "soon" response was to the same quetion asked by THE SAME PERSON. Big Smile [:D] Yours Truly.

I just gotta learn some patience that's all. My stash hit the "will take decade to build everything mark" so can probably afford to chill on these new releases. Aww who am I kidding!?!Big Smile [:D]

Waiting for FM's 1/48 PV-1 Ventura to hit the shelves. Looks like it has in France and Squadron's got it on advance order. Pricey.

Who was it releasing the 1/48 O-47A and O-47B this year? Have those hit the shelves yet?

AMTech's XP-37 and XP-42?

Y'know you see these new release lists, but when are they usually released during the year?
