Hornby America Hello Patrick, thanks for your suggestion. And while our choice for a large scale (meaning 1/24) model has already been announced for this year we appreciate your desire to have us make a new 1/24 Mustang. We will take it into consideration when we make our decisions for the coming years. -DK

Patrick Nyquist If you would look and listen to the building forums, you would see that a re-tooled mustang is way more desirable than a 1/24 Hellcat. While the Hellcat is an awesome aircraft, the Mustang is a way more deserving aircraft to deserve a new tooling effort. Just for fun ..the hellcat never wore any RAF markings that I know of. But I could be wrong. The Mustang did! I'm just speaking for a bunch of modelers who have no aftermarket options for the 1/24 Mustang and Spitfire. I myself would gladly pay the price for a re-tooled Mustang and Spitfire which are both way more popular than the Hellcat. Being 50 this year, the bigger the scale the better for old eyes. The older generation that grew up on Airfix and re-boxes by Monogram and Revell need these kits to be updated because the competitors just can't get it them right. Hard to believe a kit this old still has a better shape than a 2016-18 CAD designed shape. PLease keep us in mind.
