Work In Progress Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Good list. I'm up for the Roland, the Twin Beech and the Ferrari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLC1966 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 That HE70, is that likely to be the old Matchbox kit ? Seem to remember it was fun to make back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12by12 Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 The He70 is bound to be matchbox. I wonder if the I-153 is new. And the rationale behind the 50s/60s Bundeswehr vehicles in 1/144. The start of something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie_c67 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Hope it's a new tooling, but unlikely to be surprised if it's otherwise. Might the I-153 be a rebox of the ICM kit, rather that than the old Heller offering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Work In Progress Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 History suggests an ICM rebox is pretty likely. No bad thing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICMF Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Since the C-45 is likely the ICM kit, it seems a reasonable assumption that the He-70 and I-153 will be ICM re-boxes as well. Osprey is apparently the old Esci/Italeri kit. 250SWB will be Italeri, and the Roland will be Eduard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caution Wake Turbulence Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Yes, in 1/48, http://www.revell.de/en/products/model-building/aircraft/military-modern/id/04924.html A new version of the IDS from last year. Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stever219 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Roland and Heinkel for me please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas V. Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Type 82, Beech and He 70 are ICM toolings, Roland is by Eduard. Now I do not want this to be turned into Revell bashing, even inside FRG these releases make absolutely no sense, while getting better decals by Cartograf, price will be 40-45% higher than from original manufacturer. Where are late F-86D, Me 410B-2, Do 217, F-102A, He 177A-5 etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpm1did1 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) The Beech and the I-153 are the ones I wonder about. Neither really fit with their current/recent range, are currently in service, replace old moulds with newer market leaders, have a strong German connection, or are even particularly well known. Perhaps it's just part of the merrygo round of moulds, or a new partnership (notably of the multiple ex-icms) Maybe it was a 'buy 3 and get 2 free' deal on moulds (or 'take these two or don't get any') Tbh I think the negative reaction to some may be unnecessary. The initial mould costs are almost certainly covered and a smaller manufacturer like ICM may think it's better to take a smaller % of a larger income that Revell can achieve through their greater reach, than a big % of profits selling through a much smaller base which would be more at risk of market fluctuations. The ICM Do215s would be nice with a new Revell Do217 family now they've been beaten to the Do17 by Airfix Edited October 12, 2015 by dpm1did1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Boak Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I've got an ICM Do215 and it isn't "nice". I bought it just after an RS Do17 and the RS kit appears preferable. Others have criticised the fit of the ICM kit, too, but I put is straight to one side - mind you, I did that with the RS kit too, but with less despatch. I would like to see an Airfix Do215 from their Do17 tool but don't think it likely. You can add my support for a Revell Do217, providing that they fix the "tadpole" tail of the Italeri one.

dazinio Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Unlike government spending announcements, Revell tend not to announce things that have already been announced previously... Andrew I was getting worried as I couldn't find it listed elsewhere on the Revell site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich G Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I think I'll definitely be getting one or two of the Ferrari 250 swb's. I also like the look of the I-153 Chaika, I'm assuming this will be a rebox of the ICM kit rather than new moulds but none the less I will probably get one of those too!

dpm1did1 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I've got an ICM Do215 and it isn't "nice". Seems I swapped over the quality:scale ...bad memory, punishment later! 72 - poor (and variable according to different build reports, some 'ok' others '@#$#') 48 - much better except the decals which are constantly noted as the major weak point.

Caution Wake Turbulence Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 This is not a comprehensive list of releases for Q4, just new stuff that hasn't been announced already. The Tornado isn't on it, neither are the Embraer 195, Shackleton, Lakota, Hawk or the Samba Bus etc etc etc... Don't Panic! Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
