ben_m Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Very promising. About time one of these was released in 1/32. Now we need a nice new one in 1/48. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick b Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 Fantastic! Surprised at the lack of response to this news, perhaps if it was Airfix announcing it we'd be up to 3 pages of comment by now? Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeback52 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Well I could say about time too but I will desist and just be gratefull that a 1/32 scale Tempest will at long last be produced, I can't wait ! Cheers Dennis My sentiments exactly!!. A Tempest II to go with it would be just fine & dandy! Love the picture on your post by the way. Did the 1.1 scale Mog MK 1 come with that kit?

SeaVenom Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Fantastic! Surprised at the lack of response to this news, perhaps if it was Airfix announcing it we'd be up to 3 pages of comment by now? Mick I don't think limited run kits get as much response as injection kits from the mainstream manufacturers. Is this all plastic or resin and plastic?

JohnT Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 That's twice in one week then First the Dynavector Javelin redundant by the announced Airfix one and then this replacing my Vac 1/32 Tempest I had pulled from the stash to consider what might be do with it Who would have thought it even a few years ago? Truly we are living in modellings golden age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 I'll wait and see what the released product is like but fingers crossed. Many short run kits are as good as some of the mainstream kits these days. Wez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scimitar F1 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 This is the best news - they are also doing a MkII! I will say about time - this was probably th best medium level WW2 fighter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 A Mk.II as well!?! Oh my... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Lund Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Awesome !! Had considered kitbashing a Revell Typhoon with a Hobbycraft Fury to get a Tempest. Thank god I won't have to. Really looking forward to this. This one just might be one of those few I will get at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick b Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I don't think limited run kits get as much response as injection kits from the mainstream manufacturers. Is this all plastic or resin and plastic? I think it would contain resin as per their 32nd Airacobra and Mohawk, both of which I read were nice kits with few vices attributed to most short run stuff, in fact Revell are releasing the Airacobra without the resin next year.

Homebee Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 (edited) Yes, they're also doing a Tempest Mk.II Let's have a look at the Tempest shape displayed at Nürnberg Toy Fair 2013 Source: http://www.ipmsdeutschland.de/Ausstellungen/Nuernberg2013/Bilder_AT/MPM-Group_39.htm V.P.

Barracudadude Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) Wow, I hope that's not the final shape. That nose is VERY off in shape. The radiator housing is too far back from the spinner backplate. The spinner looks wrong too. Yes, its a photo of a master pattern, but some things are pretty apparent. Compare the nose to the painting right underneath it. Wingtips also seem awfully thick, as they are considerably rounding down at the end, which does not look prototypical. The Mk II nose seems awfully simplified as well. Its far from a straight tube, which that part seems to be. Comments made in hopes they take a hard look at the patterns before committing to steel. Happy modelling! Roy Edited February 3, 2013 by Barracudadude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Bradley Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 (edited) That master almost looks like a WWII recognition model. Anyways, I'll be getting me a Mk.II! Edited February 3, 2013 by Paul Bradley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kagemusha Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 You wait an age or two for a 1/32 Tempest, and it looks from the HEAVY hints in the Zoukei Mura blog there will be two companies manufacturing the beauty http://www.zoukeimura.co.jp/en/sentiment/otr_ipmsRepo2_03.html though how long we'll have to wait is another question...
