New Wingnut Wings model announcement for Telford - Handley-Page O/400 "Bloody Paralyser"

[Smithy]

Due to the timing I reckon it'll be a WWI subject. An Avro is probably a safe bet although a Viper powered SE could be an easy option for them too.

[k5054nz]

A Vimy would be spectacular, but I'm hoping for a DH.4/504K/BE2.

[AlCZ]

I hope in Fokker Dr. I "Dreidecker". This type was most popular, most recoinsable and most famous airplane of best and legendary pilot - Red Baron ! Dreidecker is synonymum of WW1 air combat in Dog fights. Every know - within your Grandmother - Fokker' s triplane. This is a real symbol for WWI air combat and iconic fighter. In communistic era in former socialistic Czechoslovakia was sold a 1/50 Dreidecker from Směr with boxart from 1st person - cockpit of Camel and downed Red Baron with funeral black weil of smoke beyond his tail... Yes i hope in WnE

Vimy!

Didn't see operational service during the war so is perhaps less likely.

1/32 Tank Mk.I.

If WnW gets into doing Great War armour, my bet would be on 1/16 scale.

[VMA131Marine]

I'm hoping for an Avro Type 533 Manchester (be careful before you respond)!

[VMA131Marine]

Between production in Britain and France, there were almost 6,000 Sopwith 1 ¹/₂ Strutters built. That might be an interesting choice.

Yes.  Especially since there were sub-variants.  I fully expect WNW to do one at some point.

HP 0/400 C,mon Richard it's Christmas

[WV908]

I don’t do WW1 era stuff, but please let it be a Vimy! Transatlantic flight decals too... pretty please?

You misspelled "Smith brothers' G-EAOU"! 😁 I don't know if it helps we Vimy fans' chances but Sir Peter does own at least one large model of the type although I can't find my photo to prove it.

 

As always, I like to rationalise my wishlist with what Sir Peter owns in 1:1. So with that in mind I'd be happy if it was any of these:

And given it's been a while since we've seen floats or a hull, this would be very welcome:

I know the one you mean, the one with siddeley puma engines. that would be very nice.

[Fatboydim]

After the Junkers D1, it could be another monoplane. 

Maybe a Bristol M1.

The Alcock and Brown Vimy didn't carry any markings, IIRC, so the kit would automatically include the appropriate decals. However, it would need a modified fuselage and a nose wheel for the Transatlantic aircraft.

I feel obliged to "bump", even though my calculations suggest it's 11pm at Telford!

[Dave Fleming]

Well they announced a cockpit/nose only Lancaster on Saturday, but we shall see what tomorrow brings

True, but:

For anyone who has not heard of it, there is an excellent podcast called On The Bench.

It's a podcast for scale modellers.  Back in June this year the General Manager of Wingnut Wings, Richard Alexander was on the show. It was Episode 27 for anyone interested.

I hope they delay the announcement by a couple of minutes past 11am.

True, but if it’s a 1/32 Vulcan they’ll stun, shock and then silence the whole modelling world over!

O/400 it is

0/400? Really? If so then my speculative comments directly to Richard Alexander yesterday were correct. I’m off to buy a lottery ticket now!
