  1. Any word on when these will come out and which version comes out first?
  2. DK Decals makes excellent decals and a large amount of Spitfire MK, V subjects. One better buy them now before they sell out, Rick
  3. I wonder how many companies read these to get an idea what kits to bring out later on. To me it shows what people would buy. Same with wish list even though wish list can get some wild choices. I have no thought on this Game so far as I have no clue so far with these hints. Going by what has been posted a P-47N would be nice or a late Coursair series would be nice. I guess we will find out. Rick
  4. ME-262. It seems to be the easiest 2 engine axis to make for a company's first multi engine kit. Its small for a 2engine. no propellers and one cockpit for the most part. I hope whatever it is sells well but I will not get one.
  5. I'm hoping for a P-38 family but I'm thinking Lockheed Hudson going by the hints.
  6. I'm hoping for a P-38 G/H and the rest of the P-38 series, Not the night fighter version. Yes, it says big and the P-38 is not big but they make single engine aircraft, so the P-38 is bigger. It will be interesting to see what it is. Come on P-38G/H
  7. I used to be able to post photos but with changes to the forum I can't anymore. I can't figure out why. Here are some links that I hope work. https://www.americanairmuseum.com/archive/media/media-18365jpeg https://www.americanairmuseum.com/archive/media/media-18366jpeg
  8. The 361st FG 375th FS P-51B E2-I on the sheet had more than a different canopy . The yellow nose is different with the regular canopy had the first version of the 361st FG nose markings and the Malcolm hood had the more yellow sweep back in yellow like 'Lou-IV'. The latter also has the pilots score on the left side behind the name 'Jacqueline' . The pilot's name is Lt. Dean R. Moorhouse, More mission markings also. Howards P-51d's there is small different in marking also. There are subjects on these sheets not on other company sheets which I'm glad DK decals did. Rick
  9. 12 pages on this subject. Has wondered some here and there but it gives 1/72 scale kits makes some Ideas. Late Corsair is needed but the words say not this time. As for Arma choices they own the company so they pick the kits they want. I'm sure they keep in mind most of the suggestion made here but remember they pick the ones they think will sell or a kit they have a lot of Information on. There will be 'why another kit of ???' .and yes you can't please everyone. It is nice to read the anticipation of a 1/72 kit instead of a larger scale kit.
  10. I rather they do a P-47N than a P-47D as the Tamiya is very good. I have a feeling it is a P-36 or an early P-40 B/C. I'm hoping for a P-38G/H. We will see here in another month. Rick PS. The P-4o B/C and Oscar will be a good Flying Tigers combo kit. I know I'm reaching.
  11. Oct. 1, 2024 Email: Hey Rick, Summer is definitely over, at least in Poland, and it's time to start a new modelling season! At Arma Hobby, we're gearing up for a very intense two to three months, full of fantastic new releases in 1/48 and 1/72 scales that are sure to interest you! October News From today, we start pre-orders for the 1/48th scale Reconnaissance Hurricane IIb! In the kit you will find three interesting markings and three different camera configurations. What's more, there are enough decals and camera blisters to build as many as 2-3 models, meaning that by buying this model, you gain extras for your next Hurricane IIb - whether for yourself or perhaps for a fellow model club member. The kit is also available in attractive promotional kits with other 1/48 scale kits. Check out the range on our website: www.armahobby.com We respect your privacy, please confirm you like to receive our newsletter: Subscribe to Newsletter unsubscribe Announcement of New 1/72 Model Kit We will be announcing the next 1/72 scale model kit as early as 11 October, and I can reveal that it will be a complete surprise! Pre-orders will start in the second half of October and we are planning shipments before the end of November. What's Next? Plans for the coming months Following the reconnaissance Hurricane IIb, we will be presenting a 1/48th scale reconnaissance Airacobra kit in November. In the box, you will find two striking markings of the P-39 late versions and a 3D-printed conversion kit for the photo version. For December, we have prepared two 1/72 scale kits, the first being a double reconnaissance Hurricane Mk IIb/c, and the second is another surprise - a brand new WWII fighter model kit. We will be revealing the type of aircraft in November and pre-orders will start in early December. The kit will be ready around Christmas. Although we are not sure if we will be able to ship it before the end of this year, we hope it will reach you in early 2025. More New Kits Next Year We already have confirmation that we are able to bring more model kit designs into production more quickly. Therefore, I can announce that you can expect even more news in 2025! We invite you to follow our news and wish you a successful modelling season! yours Wojtek Bulhak Arma Hobby
  12. If I remember correctly in one of the newsletters the December model is going to be a WW2 subject. They just did a Japanese plane so next most likely going to be an Allied aircraft. Someone said above a Buffalo which would be nice or P-40 B/C . I guess in another month we will find out. I'm just glad there still doing good kits in 1/72 scale.
  13. I was hoping for the OEFFAG one. More Countries used that version. I will get a couple of the D III's depending on markings. Rick
  14. No, I see just the same also. Maj. Goodson's early P-51B and the one shark nose stated above. DK decals always have a good selection of subjects in their decal sheets so I'm guessing he will have another 8 great subjects. Being a big 8th AF Fighter Group fan my mind is going wild on which other aircraft he will do. I think there the best! decals out. Rick
  15. The wing middle front is different on the P-40F/L where the radiator outlet is. I tried to kit bash the P-40M with an older P-40 L by using the engine cowling and front of the wing part to the P-40M. It was ok. The engine needed a lot of sanding and putty to match up, so I have not finished it . Not sure I will as it was more work than I wanted to do.
