PMG Offramp Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 If we follow the logic of these brands tooling aircrafts that are in service in their countries, I would see a Boeing 777-200/-300, an Airbus A330-200/-300, a MD-11, and of course all Russian types... in the later case the Il-62 "regular" and M would get my vote. Early all off the above had been doneThe f27 is avadiable from doyusha That is not a reason, Revell did a Boeing 767-300 but it did not prevent Zvezda from releasing their superb 767 kit. Actually I will be very happy if Zvezda "reinterprets" already released kits like they did with the 767, Revell's A330/A340 were nice kits but I am certain Zvezda could add lots of icing on top of the cake, and lets not talk about the Minicrap 777 kit ...

Eren Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Already mentioned but I'll second the 757 and 777. Again, as already mentioned - the A340-600 would be top of my list. I want to do the conversion but I'm not sure I'm brave enough to spend that amount of my pounds on the resin!! Eren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done two and encountered few problems with either. I plan to get another at some point and do a -500. Treat yourself, you won't be disappointed!

richellis Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 I did with my list, but said Id throw it open. Letting it run a while then Ill give them some more ideas. They have asked what we want. I hope BM can push some ideas there way as we do have a good relationship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenDragon Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I want most of what's already been mentioned. A few Favourites are: An accurate BAC 1-11 and VC-10 (And the VC-10-ski!) 737-200 757 Yak42 An148 and a Sukhoi Su-80 in 1/72nd. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukhoi_Su-80 For whoever mentioned the Convair CV-440, Minicraft are doing that and the 580 (supposedly) soon.

Kevin Callahan Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Just about any feeder airliner as long as it is 1:72 would work for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pin Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Don't forget that Zvezda is primarily oriented on Russian market. Hence 757 or 1011 could hardly be expected in nearest future. My bet - Il-62 or Tu-104 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 My choices in no particular order (because I really, really want them all) would be; 707, 727, 757, 1-11, Super VC-10, Il-62, Zvezda kits are in my opinion the best airliners made so I will buy whatever they produce. However I would buy multiple copies of any of the above. Seeing as they have done the 767 and 747-800 I see no reason whay they wouldn't tackle any of the above.

garryrussell Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 The 767 and 747 are types often seen in Russia with Aeroflot operating 767's which sort of legitimises them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PMG Offramp Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Come on, lets be creative and think beyond the airboeingbuses........... Zvezda's 767 is a Boeing indeed. Now, MD-11 would be a winner. We need a good IM MD-11 Especially in the Aeroflot Cargo livery, it is such a nice livery, it looks gorgeous on anything flying.

PMG Offramp Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Ah yesA Boeing MD-11 large three engined airbus Hum, I did not see that one coming, good one. I am curious, are Western types such as Airbus/Boeing/McDonnell Douglas/Lockheed machines attractive to Russian modellers/market? In the same way we drooled when Zvezda announced their 1st 1:144 airliner kit in the shape of the splendid Il-86, and the later Tu-154, Superjet and now Tu-134?

andrewribs Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 An MD11 or 757 would be great. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garryrussell Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Steven I would think the appeal to them is the same as it is to us Maybe not so much now, but certainly with the older types there were very different variations of the contemporary themes...TU-134 V DC9, One-Eleven: IL-62v VC10: TU-154 V 727 and so on and those sort of differences are always appealing as any variation of a theme tends to be. There is no reason why they should restrict to Russian type as other manufactures in the west have always made Russian types. It can do no harm if people like the modellers here and elsewhere show there is a market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madaboutmodels Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 It looks like the kits with the most votes is the il-62 and md-11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garryrussell Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) Looks like it...and a balance of extremes too...something stylish/interesting....and an MD-11 Edited July 22, 2012 by garryrussell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
