Helo Wish List

I may be a broken record, but seeing as how this topic was dug up from '03, I'll chime in again...

My wish list? Two words: Cobra Lineage

Meaning? A new-tool line of all AH-1 variants to include E, F, G, J, P, Q, S, T, W, and Z. The basic airframe could be used across many of the variants, with extra parts sprues tailored to each model.

1/48 and 1/35 scales, please.

 

Wow, look what the cat dragged in!

Beeing this thread three years old, it's good to see that some of the wishes have come true:

• 1/48 CH-53E
• 1/35 Chinooks (A & D)
• 1/35 Hind
• and others I might not have noticed

Since I never added my 2 (Euro) cents on the wishlist (all in 1/35):

• Ka-50 Hokum
• Ka-27
• Ka-29
• HH-3F Pelican
• Bell 412
• A-109
• A-129 Mangusta

Last four helos might reveal where I'm from

*ahem*... either 1:48 and/or 1:35,
HH-3 JOLLY GREEN GIANT
Thank you. We now bring you back to your regularly scheduled postings.

Alrighty then.  Here's my wish list.

All 1/32 of course.  Ok, ok, I'll settle for 1/48.  But nothing smaller!

Sikorsky S-76 A, A+, B, & C.
Eurocopter 365N2 Dauphin  (HH-65)
Eurocopter 350 Astar
Eurocopter 355/355F  TwinStar
Agusta A-109C
Agusta A-109 Power
Agusta A-109 K2
Agusta A119
Bell 407 (ALH)
Bell 206L Long Ranger
Bell 222/230 (Or bring back the 1/48th already!)
Bell 412
MD 520N
MD 600N
MD 900/902


Ok, ok, I'll settle for 1/48.  But nothing smaller!

Cheers,
John

How about these firsts in detailed 1/48 modern kits:

      Igors         VS-300

                        R-6

      Mr.Bell's   Model 30

More 1/48 detailed modern kits.

                       Hughes Model 300

                       Bell Model 47G

                        CH-34

                        CH-56

                        AH-56  

I can think of many more but these are on top of my list. 

I'll go with

 1/35th:

   A-109/MH-68A

   MH-60K

1/72nd:

   MH-60 (K/L/DAP)

   MH/AH-6 (J/M)

   MH/HH-60G

I find it amazing that no mainstream manufacturer has yet brought out a 1/72nd scale Mil Mi-26 'Halo' in injection moulded plastic. It is only the largest helicopter in the world after all. Please will some manufacturer take heed. I would also like to see a 1/48 Kamov Ka-29/30/31 coming out, the ones with a co-axial rotor which fit very neatly on board naval vessels because, without the tail boom and anti-torque tail rotor, they are compact helis.

 

I'd love to see a 1/35th scale MH-53, ooh and a Sea King
Not sure if anyone makes a 1/35 Apache of any flavour?

1/35th:

      MH-53J/M Pave Low III/IV

      HH-60H

      Decent AH-64D Longbow Apache kit

      HC3 Merlin

      Mil Mi-28N Havoc

1/48th:

      MH-68 Stingray

A 1/48 MARINE CH-37
