Lets start this with what's known and apparently rarer than hens teeth to buy now? Number one for me is Tamiya's 1/32 F-16 Thunderbirds kit, you can get one new if you shop around and overseas too and be prepared for the import fee sting, but pretty sure its just remaining stock? I don't think Tamiya produce them any-more for reasons they wont disclose, they are very private about such things and we have to respect that. Number two for me is Tamiya again, the 1/32 Mosquito, this is the last all new tool 1/32 Aircraft Tamiya produced and I think it never sold well enough to their expectations? I doubt Tamiya will produce another 1/32 Aircraft kit again, or at least not in my ageing lifetime .. sadly. Its cool, got myself a new Tamiya 1/32 Mosquito now (tonight) and its on its way, its probably one of the best kits ever produced IMHO and wont let this one go ,,, but I feel Tamiya always like to drip feed, when they make a new kit its sometimes the least popular variant first, 1/32 Birdcage Corsair anyone? but release the others shortly after, Spitfires too. As per title and for a desert island kit? ,, probably Trumpeters 1/200 Titanic and a lot of extras I do have this kit actually and a multimedia lighting kit, but need more extras .. more more more 👍 PS: Meant to add, if I were head of Tamiya and when the discussions were held about the next 1/32 aircraft to do, I might have suggested the P-38 Lightning ... yeah I know Trumpeter have one but HK had the Mossie in the works too they must have known about? I'm pretty sure had Tamiya produced a 1/32 P-38 rather than the Mosquito they would have sold like hot cakes ... Just sayin Still looking fwd to my Tamiya Mosquito though, its probably the best kit ever made that went under our collective radars.
