I'd ike to see a REALLY good 1/24 scale AC Cobra (289 or 427 - doesn't matter), a similar GT40, a 1/48 or 1/32 Aeronica Champ, and (I agree, Chris) a large scale Phalanx gun.
Cheers

I'd like to see some of the following:

1/24 or 1/32

Vultee L-1, Taylorcraft L-2, Aeronca L-3/65TC, Piper L-4/J3 Cub, Stinson L-5, Interstate L-6, N.A. L-17/Navion, Cessna L-19, Piper L-21/PA-18 Super Cub

1/72
Curtiss SNC trainer, Douglas C-54/DC4, Vultee P-66, Beechcraft Staggerwing, any of the Howard DGA series, Ryan PT series, North American BT-9, WW I Taube, Douglas C-124, Douglas B-18 Bolo (w/both styles of nose)

1/35
Super HETT

Upgraded re-released (or all new)

1/32

Bf110-C, Bf110-G

1/72

Whirlwind, Hs-123, D0-217E2,

That's my basic list (If they do produce any of them, they,ll probably be too expensive for me to buy) (my luck tends to work that way - - when it works)

I'll throw an odd one in the mix....How about a nicely replicated Desktop Phalanx gun system....These things have always facinated me! I would surely buy one so long as AMT didnt make it! LOL

I'd have Revell-Germany produce a 1/72 U.S. Navy LCAC (Landing Craft Air Cushion). Then I could park a few M1A1's inside and hit the beach!

There are a lot of Armor and A/C that have been built maybe model manufactors out there will make some that are listed. I remember in Shep Paines Modeling tanks and military vehicles. He scratched built a M51 super Sherman. Academy now makes that same tank. Thanks for sharing.

I would like to see a Heinkel He115 in 1/48. Preferably not as a short-run kit. Attaching the floats would be even worse than MPM's Arado Ar196.

HEY,
I would have to say a Honda RR. It is a motorcycle that my stepdad has.

More tank transports than just the dragon wagon, all though it is cool some of the lesser known ones like the M-911 would be nice.
In a different topic, some detailed modern day fire apparatus. All that is really available is older stuff.

A couple of things come to mind:

A fresh new 1/48 F-101 Voodoo kit would be great. The old Monogram kit has seen better days.

Definitely a 1/48 Spey engined Phantom. Easily the most neglected F-4 family member by the modeling industry.

A 1/35 scale M 1075 Palatized Load System and an extra flat rack would have to come with the kit.
For those of you who don't know what this is it's the bigger version of the hemmit, it's got 10 wheels a lift arm in the middle to lift up a rack system and a crane in the middle of the truck for the extra lifting part. I placed pics of a few on Rons site if you wanna check it out.

Tamiya would be the choice of companies and the Sexton in 1/35 scale would be my choice.

what would you want that kit to be?

I'd say a 1:48 F3H Demon

it'd look great alongside an F4H!
