Largescale32 Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 The last sentence in the text means something like: "We´re pushing it now, for us and for Revell."
Chaotic Mike Posted January 21, 2021 Posted January 21, 2021 I love " [frame] H - Mainly cannon". Yep, it's a Whirlwind all right!

brewerjerry Posted January 25, 2021 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

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

Tbolt Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 Test shot of one sprue. https://www.facebook.com/specialhobby/posts/1121689098271449 5
bigbadbadge Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 Yummy, can't wait, although I noticed a bit of flash, not too much of an issue though. Chris 1

Scimitar F1 Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 Nice narrow spruce gates. Four years of waiting and it is nearly here! 3
gingerbob Posted March 6, 2021 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
mick b Posted March 6, 2021 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

bigbadbadge Posted March 6, 2021 Posted March 6, 2021 And me that would be Awesome. SWMBO would not be happy though. 1
Stew Dapple Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 Hannants seem to believe it will be available in April: https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/SH32047 Trigger warning: Price may be offensive to some Cheers, Stew 2

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

At last, price is not too bad was expecting a bit more tbh, so pleased with that. Now I will have to dig out the book of raffle tickets, look what I won honey !!! Chris 1 3
sinnerboy Posted March 12, 2021 Posted March 12, 2021 I wonder if they will come with some resin goodies like the Tempest MkV & II ( half engine & cannon bays ) can't wait! 2

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
spitfire Posted March 13, 2021 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
