Which model do you want produced?

You know John, the JN was a Model Airways kit, laser cut and tissue.Sterling made a stick and tissue.But best of all, the Lindberg 1/48 kit is released again by Round 2.

Actually the Model Airways/Model Expo kit doesn't come with covering material. It's intended to be completed as the uncovered "skeleton" of the airplane. (The modelers could cover it, but to my notion that would be a crazy thing to do.)

I checked out the Round2 website the other day. It's not well organized, but I couldn't find the Jenny on it. I think Round2 makes short production runs, and may or may not produce another batch after the first one sells out. (The Sea Witch is gone too, along with the Lifelike/Lindberg/Inpact Flycatcher. The good news is that Round2 says it's bringing out a 2 pack containing the Flycatcher and the Hawker Fury.)

I remember the Sterling kit. Comet also made a balsa-and-tissue Jenny, and I imagine Cleveland Models had one. That old Lindberg Jenny wasn't a bad kit by any means. (Aurora and Renwal also had 1/48 ones.) But imagine what a 1/32 Jenny from Wingnut, or a 1/48 one from Eduard. Or, for that matter, a 1/24 one from Merit.

Same old same old if it doesn't have guns it doesn't sell

British and American Cruisers...in 700th...

Hmmm;

 Such a question . Well here goes

1- A good 1/350 AKA and APA .How about this for number two

 2 - T-2-Class oilers from WW2

 3 Any ammunition ships and reefers from the same time in 1/350

4 This is a hard one .Does anyone remember the Shell Welder ? How about a 1/350 ship if this class , both as an oiler and a dry goods freghter for the Navy Also in 1/350

I guess that's it for me .  T.B.

1/350 SMS GOEBEN from WW1

1/48 scale Russian WW2 Su-6 Ground Attack Aircraft

1/72 British Armstrong Whitworth Albemarle ST Mk.V Bomber

1/48 scale Consolidated PB-2A P-30 Fighter

Good one,my father served on AKA-91 USS Whitley,I would like to build that one.

While we're wishing, I'm always trying  to find the SAC version of the F-111 which had longer wings than the standard version. There are several nice 1/48 F-111 kits and it would just be a variation of those. I'm still researching.

How about this !

 They can produce more of the light-skins and at an affordable price .Those are my criteria ! T.B.

A decent DC-3 model in 1:72 (not a warmed over C-47).  Also Ford Tri-motor in same scale.  Only two Ford models I know of are junk.

Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny Jenny. Maybe if I say it enough times some manufacturer will notice.

Some years ago there was a Group Build called "Before they were aces". That would have been a good subject.

How about a 1/48 2.5 ton U.S. refueling truck with a hardtop (instead of the canvas top one they have now in 1/35)? Also, in agreement with Don Stauffer, a REAL DC-3 (not converted from a C-47) and a Ford Trimotor both in 1/48. 

Hopefully all three could be less than about $40. each?

Tamiya or not Tamiya really does not matter to me, but here goes...

F-11 Tiger 1/48

B-32 Dominator 1/48

P-63 King Cobra 1/48

F-82 Twin Mustang 1/48

B-47 Stratojet 1/48

Oh yeah definitely a 1/48 Twin Mustang. Now, imagine the sheer size of the tail on a 1/48 scale B-32!

Hello

 What military model do you want Tamiya to produce next/ in the future?

 Thank you

Sherman BARV

Centurion BARV

Since Tamiya already produced Shermans and a Centurion in 1/35

How about a nice line of 1/35 Hueys and various other Choppers? I dont undestand why more are not made in this scale. I had to hunt for hours for a 1/35 Huey that I wanted to build for a Vietnam Dio. I found one, but the price nearly blew my head off. How about a reasonable line of 1/35 choppers at a fair price for all?

UH-1A Huey 1/48,RF-8G 1/48,H-37 Mojave 1/48.

What military model do you want Tamiya to produce next/ in the future?

1/32:

• Me 262
• Me163
• Fw190D
• Boulton-Paul Defiant
• Gloster Meteor
• Hawker Typhoon
• Republic P47 Thunderbolt
• Lockheed F104 Starfighter

1/35

• British 17 Pdr AT gun
• DD Sherman
• V2 with Meilerwagen
• German A7V WW1 tank

1/350

• RN Flower Class Corvette
• RN HMS Nelson
• US Guided Missile Destroyer (e.g. Arleigh Burke)

It'd be nice to see Tamiya explore the 1/144 line. Here's my list of what I would wanna see: (this list is not just limited to Tamiya)

1/144:

FA-50

Dassault Super Etendard

A new tool MiG-29, 25 and 31 (lets face it, Revell's Fulcrum was too short and stubby)

Su-33

Su-35S and Su-27M

Su-30MKI/M/SM/M2

YA-10B

Yak-141

J-10

J-31 (these two were Anigrand bonus kits, but then again, I don't want to spend two months worth of my allowance for these two)

Yak-38

New tool Phantoms! 

Injection-molded F-16C/D Block 52+ and E/Fs 

F-5A/B

How about this :

 Why don't they come out with a full range of boats in 1/72 ? I mean the Patrol Torpedo boats . British , but American too , and Russian and Chinese . From W.W. 2 to the " Perkasa" Types and a few newer ones .

     The main point in all ? Keep them decent on detail with total affordability for the modelers who want them .     T.B.

1/48 scale Spitfire Floatplane.

I know you can find them in 1/72 scale and I do believe there is one in 1/32 scale.

What I'd like to see? Okay:

A retooled 1/48 scale F-106A from Revell with engraved panel lines and fix the way the main gear installs. For giggles, a 1/32 version would be nice, too.

A 1/72 scale F-106A from Tamiya, Revell, or Hasegawa that corrects the Hasegawa kit and fits better than the Meng kit. Revell did such a nice 1/72 F-101B I don't see why they couldn't do a Six.

An updated 1/72 B-52 from Revell with engraved panel lines. D, G or H is fine with an option for the 20mm Vulcan or not + options for every underwing weapons carried by specific versions i.e. SRAM, AGM-86's, Hound Dog, GBU-15, Harpoons. (Yes, certain units flying the D were equipped with GBU-15 in the late 70's/early 80's. And a G carrying 12 Harpoons would be awesome!)

An updated 1/72 B-1B from Revell. A scaled down version of their 1/48 kit with the SRAM's and fuel tank would be great.

A re-release of the Revell Yacht America. (1/72 scale?)

Airfield support equipment for USAF, USN, and USMC aircraft from 60's to 90's in the three major scales. 

Yeah, that about covers it.
