grahamf Posted December 6, 2015 Share Posted December 6, 2015 Well I've only just recently seen the B17 built up and it was just awesome, the Lancaster will be well worth the wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sinnerboy Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 I've agreed an offer for my missus as well, unfortunately that leaves me less to spend on the Lanc when it appears 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don149 Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 The last I could make out from their website was the second quarter of next year. So with any luck, in time for my 81st birthday!. But to make room for it by the side of the B17, Im going to have to do some scrapping, [sob]. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mancunian airman Posted December 7, 2015 Author Share Posted December 7, 2015 Am really not to concerned about the release date just as long as they get it right, accurate fuselage profiles; engines, turrets and the wing dihedrel, and not to many fiddly small parts that are not seen when the fuselage is closed up.

Admiral Puff Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 yes and your only 23....that's optimism for you! I should be so lucky - try multiplying that by 3! What did you say my name was?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radpoe Spitfire Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 (edited) Am really not to concerned about the release date just as long as they get it right, accurate fuselage profiles; engines, turrets and the wing dihedrel, and not to many fiddly small parts that are not seen when the fuselage is closed up.Hopefully with the number of surviving Lancasters, they might get it right. If it is anything like the B17 I will be happy. I suppose we will only find out when it gets released.

Tony C Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Cees, is there any indication of pricing yet? Not that that will stop me buying one, as the wife, children and grand-children are already on eBay, in readiness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
