All of them!!! Hopefully Tamiya's line of 1/32 aircraft will grow to equal the size of it's awesome 1/48 line.

P-51D, P-51D & P-51D! Tongue [:P]

Seriously though, I think they're going to do a P-51D. (Or a P-51D)

But in reality, they'd be much better off to do a P-51D.

However, I'd really like to see them do a P-40.

B-36. But I would have to sell my house, cars, camper and boat to buy it. Actually, I would like to see the P-47C/D released. That would be the next logical choice.

I like the answer all.But which one first? I'll bet it's the P-51,but everyone is doing a Large P-51 . Ya a 1/32 B-36 would be too cool,and big bucks. How about
a P-38. The P-39 with the fully detailed rear engine would be great also.Why has
Tamiya steered clear of doing Helicopters? I would defenet ly buy them .

I want a Jug. Prefeably a P-47N. That's pretty much the only plane I'd pay big money for in plastic.

I second berny13's vote for a B-36. But I'd have to park the model in my garage!

A 1/32 P-47C/D/M/N ad infinitum would always look good around here. Panda is scheduled to release a 1/32 B-17 F and a G-model as well! Gonna get interesting soon.

Another vote for the F-105D/F/G Thunderchief !! I'm getting worried about the forthcoming Trumpeter release of the THUD.

I think they'll release the 1/32 B-36 after their 1/32 Valkyrie. Sorry chaps...! I'll be selling my house first.

I dont care if its Haseagagme, Tamiya or Revellogram but I would like to see trainer a/c done in 1/48th.
I know Collect aire has done a few but I would really like to see them done by the above co's.
I would love to see Tamiya do a 1/48th T2C Buckeye(NATC Pax River baby all the way) Big Smile [:D]

Flaps up,Mike

If you would listen to everybody about the inaccuracies, most of the kits on your shelf would not have been built Too Close For Guns, Switching To Finger

How about a He-100! I'd try braille scale for a subject like that.

Hm, I think they should consider bout doing a P-51 D. A P-51 D would be a great deal.
I would vote for a P-51 D. Smile [:)]

I'd be very pleased to see Tamiya produce either a P-40 or a P-39 equal in quality to the Zero in 1:32 scale.
For now, all I have is an old Revell P-40 that I bought off someone at an old club meeting. The engine had already been glued together. Maybe if I take the time to resurrect this model, Tamiya will apply Murphy's Law and come out with a new kit...

I would like to see Tamiya do a Spruce Goose in 1/32, what a diorama that would make :-)
Seriously I would like to see them update the 1/48 Lancaster with recessed panel lines or even one in 1/32, I would sell my house for that one.

I am enjoying the hec out of the answers that are being posted,and I agree with all off the aircraft picks.Mr Fitter ,we were able to pick up 3 P40s from E Bay last year and the prices were fair ,like 25$ per kit. They were early Revell kits with Dif -
erant decale sceems,and they were in great shape.I sold mine OOTB for 200.$
I think Trumpeter will put out a P-40 before Tamiya,in 1/32.
Good luck to all see ya Davey5
