Since we get to pick the manufacturer as well as the kit, I want Tamiya to make the HMS Hood in 1/350. While theyre at it, the USS Gambier Bay in the same scale.

Getting WAY off topic, I want Dare Engineering to make an electric flying B-58 for R/C.

In 1/32 scale the BC/SNJ/T6/Harvard/Wirraway. Let's start that line with a T-6G/LT6G.

I would have to agree with tibodo33 on the 1/32 avenger, that would be something. How about a wider variety of Pearl Harbour battleships in 1/700 scale or in 1/350. Look at something different, say something like 40mm or 20mm guns in 1/24 or 1/32- just dreaming its Christmas. Happy Holidays everyone.

I would love to see more helicopters in 1/35. I am still not sure why there are so few troop/cargo transport helicopters in that scale. A 1/35 CH-53 would be sweet!

I am also waiting for the day when I can buy a Predator or Global Hawk kit.

I would also like to see more space models, perhaps a new 1/72 space shuttle with accurate details.

A 1/72 Nimitz would be cool too!

A B17G in 1/72 with the Boeing tail turret, rather than the Cheyenne modification they all seem to come with. It becomes an awfully expensive kit-bash!

Smile [:)]Hi all,

My first choice would be a hasagawa 1/48 GR1 Tornado with poseable flaps and slats like their F-14 kits.
My second choice would be a GR4 Tornado as aboveBig Smile [:D]

How about a 1/32 Spitfire Vb by Tamiya? That would make me a very happy boy!Big Smile [:D]

yea, I have a couple of each in my stash but they are old Airfix moldings and really need to be upgraded or new molds made. Been looking for a 1/72 Taube for years but never found one. Probably could scratch build one but I ain't really that great at scratchbuilding.

I'd like to see more "Secret weapons of the Axis" type models, such as Japans version of the Me262 or their combat autogyro (yes, I said combat, they used a few for ASW, but their 'carrier' was sunk, ironically, by a sub), more of Me and FW "future jets", similar to the ones that the USSR based the Mig15 on, and more infantry figures to go with 1/72 and 1/35 scale. I find the selection and poses to be a bit limited....
Also, I'd like to see more "brown water Navy" craft. So far I've only sen a PBR and one Coasty.

qmiester...

Airfix had a Hs-123 and a Whirlwind, no..? And the 1/72 Taube..? I know there's a 1/48 kit, and I know I've seen some at shows in smaller scales, but they may have been scratch... Might be worth checking the older catalogues of Eduard, BlueMax and the like...

Decent size Honda Goldwing, not the 1/15 one that was released.

1/6 Honda Goldwing Trike, but preferably not by Tamiya not impressed with their 1/6 scale offerings.
