Robert Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Hope the Hunter is issued with different decals than before and contains both versions in the box. Robert 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie_c67 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 New Hunter? I'll hold off re-visiting my Airfix FGA.9 and best find the P1109A kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRK4m Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 Hope that US M109 in 1/72 will be the Vietnam-era A2 or A3 and not the omnipresent Paladin... Cheers Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbit Leader Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 "100 years of RAF" models - Interesting just two weeks out from Telford! I wonder if they've overheard a few whispers and have released these as a little 'One Up' against Airfix. Let it roll on I say - we may be in for a treat or two. Cheers...

Roman Schilhart Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 The 15cm Panzerwerfer 42 is of MACO origin, for sure. I am surprised about the announcement of the Fw-190 F8 in 72 scale - will this be a re-issue of their 1997 moulding? I haven't heard anything about a "new tool" Fw-190 from Revell in 72 scale.

Aeronut Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Place your bets for what the 100 years of the set RAF will contain. I doubt it will contain any new kits or ones not previously seen in Revell boxes, so here is my selection, all 1:72: Sopwith Camel, Hawker Fury, Supermarine Spitfire, Hawker Hunter and Eurofighter Typhoon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Camel and Spitfire are givens (although I wouldn't be surprised to see the Revell Hurricane in its place). Other likely alternatives: Lancaster, Lightning (reissue of old Frog kit or Matchbox F.6), Tornado (Revell has a nice 1/72 kit), Gladiator (ex-Matchbox), Heyford (ex-Matchbox), Siskin (ex-Matchbox).

Procopius Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Bah, the Hunter re-release has annihilated the resale value of my nine kits. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sroubos Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Excellent news about that Hunter, I've waited for that. Is there a difference in plastic between the FGA9 and Mk6 kits? And does anybody know what the current options are to change it to a non-sawtooth? I'm also curious about the F-117, as far as I know the only F-117 Revell has done before is this ridiculous thing: https://www.scalemates.com/kits/143954-revell-4382-f-117-a-shadowhawk So is this a rebox from one of the other manufacturers or a new tool?

Basuroy Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 The hunter is like a new kit to me since I don't have one but I wonder whether revell has washed it's hands off publishing new tool kits on regular interval ? There is like one new tool in each scale per year . The likes of Airfix , special hobby ( who I suspect have far less resources and manpower ) manage to churn out new tools on an acceptable rate .

Is there a difference in plastic between the FGA9 and Mk6 kits? The FGA9 has an extra sprue with Mavericks and their associated LAUs, plus some Swiss-specific bits for late-model Hunters. It also includes the FGA9 tailpipe and larger drop tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
