Less a rumour at this point, but I was surprised to see the announcement of Tamiya's newest 1/48 kit a BF-109 G-6. Here's Brett Green's partial buildup of the test shot:

While I was surprised at the release considering Eduard's G-6 ( mk. II after screwing up the first iteration) is beautifully done, Eduard does have a penchant for being "fiddly," Still, I wondered why bother, but Tamiya's engineering does give one pause and the spiffy open/closed cowl options are pretty neat. Haven't pulled the trigger on the Eduard so I may wait for the Tamiya. Eduard does have a plethora of paint schemes available (Tamiya will have only 3) as well as early and late versions, along with their various tweaks therein. We'll see.
