Word on the street is that it’s a F/G/H.  I would have thought it would be a L or J.

Being the oddball modeler I am, I’d like an M night fighter.  I love the gloss black paint scheme, little radar pod and the humbacked RIO station.

Let's hope it really is a P-38. A modern version is long overdue.

Cool! I wonder which variant it will be? Think Tamiya will do a F/G type and in the Yamamoto mission markings?

 

F is for FIRE, That burns down the whole town!

U is for URANIUM... BOMBS!

N is for NO SURVIVORS...

This popped up in my Facebook feed this morning.  Looks like a new P-38 is coming in 1/48.  The wife nixed a quick trip to Tokyo for the reveal on this new release that is slated for 25 July.
