brewerjerry Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Hi. When it comes out my next long wait will be for the 1/32 hawker typhoon they announced at the same time as the whirlwind was initially announced. Cheers. Jerry 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have a Revell Typhoon adorning my mancave ceiling, so not in such a big hurry. Being a Westlands ex-Company man I'm wondering when a 1/32 Welkin is going to happen... Not anytime soon, I expect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris I guess that's one of the reasons they do test shots so they can adjust things if needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerbob Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 This is when I'd be so tempted to say that I'm looking at a test mold... but that would be cruel... and fake news! Anyway, they really should send the first one to Jerry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick b Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 Maybe some aftermarket brass cannon barrels will be around to replace the plastic. No denying this a surprising and excellent choice of subject by SH, I like forward to their 1/32nd Barracuda next 😂 Mike 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Whirlwind lands with the five 1/72 Harvards I pre-ordered and get shipped together, then I can guarantee C in C House will ensure that I will be late of this parish. Then again, I'll get the 10% pre-order discount, so my sentence may get reduced to a good flogging. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to bad a price considering the 1:32 scale and the fact they won't sell as many kits as if it was a spitfire or a 109 etc Cheers Jerry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitfire Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 That's a bargain for me, my limit is £100 a kit but for a Whirlwind or a Defiant or a Barracuda I would pay more, mind you I probably only buy two or three kits a year as I only build in 1/32 scale and WW2 period only. And as you can see my preference is for RAF/FAA types, though I do build other nations subjects when the fancy takes me. Cheers Dennis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
