Simon382 Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 Afternoon one and all. Just been perusing the latest copy of SAMI. They have some news some may be interested in. A new release scheduled from Tan Models from Turkey being a 1/48 BUCCANEER!!!!!!!! May I be the first to give cautios YAY! Never heard of Tan Models but looking on their site their previous efforts look mighty fine. Will be keeping an eye on this as it develops 6
Dave Fleming Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Is this in addition to the 1/72 or another SAMI mix up? http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234974428-172-blackburn-buccaneer-s2-by-tanmodel-in-design/ http://www.tanmodel.com/index_en.html- go to Projects Edited February 22, 2016 by Dave Fleming
Simon382 Posted February 22, 2016 Author Posted February 22, 2016 A mix up? Oh hell no. Have I got my hopes up for nothing? Is my only hope the Airfix version that I'm forever putting off?
Dave Fleming Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 A mix up? Oh hell no. Have I got my hopes up for nothing? Is my only hope the Airfix version that I'm forever putting off? Time will tell I suppose. Tan Models post on here so perhaps they can confirm or deny 1
SleeperService Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 A mix up? Oh hell no. Have I got my hopes up for nothing? Is my only hope the Airfix version that I'm forever putting off? This could be the happiest day in my model making life or the worst..... 3
Max Headroom Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 See here http://www.tanmodel.com/index_en.html 1/72 apparently. However they are doing a 1/48 BLENHEIM!!!!!! Trevor 1

bootneck Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 I wonder what "1/48 CODE NAME:2304 SPECIAL PROJECT #2304" will be?? 3
Wee Beastie Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Curious, is 1/48 CODE NAME:2304 SPECIAL PROJECT #2304 a "Secret Squirrel" code for the 1/48 Buccaneer? My Airfix Buccaneer was next up to built.......now do I, or don't I? Edited February 22, 2016 by Wee Beastie 2
HartDeco Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 Yes please build it. Then you can be sure a new kit will be released quite soon. This happened a couple of times to me too: Heller Fiat G.91 (AMK this year) and Monogram's Kingfisher (Kittyhawk soon, I hope). René
NPL Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 Looked at their webpage: a very ambituous company. Something really exiting. Theur Thunderflash looks excellent. 1
Radleigh Posted February 22, 2016 Posted February 22, 2016 1/72 CN-235...at last one not in resin ..and CN-295, must admit, if that gets released I'll be a happy chap. 4
The Good Sergeant Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 YES!!!! A new 1/72 Buccaneer! Long overdue and much anticipated! Steven Brown Scale Model Soup 1
Wez Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 YES!!!! A new 1/72 Buccaneer! Long overdue and much anticipated! Steven Brown Scale Model Soup Agreed, we need a decent 1/72nd Bucc more than we need a 1/48th one! 3
F4u Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) I suppose I'm asking to much for a 1/32 scale then ?? Guy Edited February 23, 2016 by F4u 2
fingers Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Agreed, we need a decent 1/72nd Bucc more than we need a 1/48th one! On this we must agree to disagree. 3
TANMODEL Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 BRIEF STATEMENT ABOUT BLACKBURN BUCCANEER PROJECT. Dear forum members and our friends; First of all, thank you all for your interest in TANMODEL brand and our projects. Yes, we are planning to release Blackburn Buccaneer S.2 kit and we made some progress in 3D design. However we will release this project in 1/72 scale. (Of course, our reference is 1/48 scale RF-84F kit) A modeler and author friend of ours, also a member of this forum, stated that he will support us. If he wishes, he can announce his name. We detail the design in summer and we wish to present a perfect Buccaneer to you in autumn. We would write messages to you for decal selection, however we wanted to make a small briefing under this topic. Regards, TANMODEL http://www.tanmodel.com http://www.facebook.com/tanmodel 11
Max Headroom Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 ^^^ great news! Personally I would be happy with an overall Extra Dark Sea Grey FAA example or a Dark Green/Dark Sea Grey RAF one. Personally I'm not fond of the 'desert pink' Gulf War scheme but would imagine that it would be popular. Thanks again and I look forward to seeing The Brick tooled up Trevor
Seahawk Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 Oh I do hope its 1/48 ! Guy Oh, I do hope it is in 1/72.
NorLars Posted February 23, 2016 Posted February 23, 2016 However they are doing a 1/48 BLENHEIM!!!!!! Trevor Now THAT excites me!
