Well with their current releases of bonkers aeroplanes I've never heard of (I don't know what they're smoking) but I wouldn't rule out Dick Dastardly's aeroplane with resin Muttley in 2023 TBF 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortly afterwards it was sold to Spitfire Spares who I believe still own it 🙂 Edited August 16, 2022 by TEXANTOMCAT 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you can get overtrees directly from the manufacturer, but this is only cost effective if you can afford to buy a bunch of them, which kinda defeats the point for me. They're still a small company for whom every set of moulds is a big outlay and financial risk so I can't blame them for trying to milk every set of moulds to maximise return on investment (both money and skills) - and make money for new subjects. Agree with you: I find buying overtrees rarely cost-effective because P&P are crippling unless you're buying industrial quantities. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cammer625 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 The suspense is starting to kill me. Just hurry up and tell us what juicy lil morsel you’ve got for us this time. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrB17 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Griffon Spits, primarily a definitive XIV of the same calibre as what they have already done. Spitfire Vb/c would also be nice as a compliment to Eduard’s VIII/IX’s. I have a sizeable stash of Arma kits and will be starting on a collection of Hurricanes soon. I finally received the P-51 B/C and Ki-84 last week and would like to continue the collection. Whatever comes up, I am sure to be pleased with. Waiting patiently… Cheers Jeff 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKinksFan Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 This is a quote from Arma Hobby's June - July Newsletter: "The September surprise will be officially revealed in the second half of August, after the end of the pre-order of the other anniversary set." The Dieppe set is still listed as a pre-order on armahobby.com, but it says that delivery will start 19th of August. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seboo Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I think they are waiting till 19/08 to announce that the have started shipping Dieppe Combo and then reveal THE new 1/72 model. It is 13 pages about it already without even knowing what that will be. That beats Airfix's New Year wish list me thinks 🤪 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh do tell! 😉 Not too fussed if it was a Vb, but if it turned out to be a Mk XIV, I'd be all over it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that the new Arma kits are too expensive. Twenty quid for a single engined WW2 fighter? Jog on! But! But! Photo etch! (hate it) Canopy masks! (fair enough, *if* they’re Kabuki tape. Vinyl is worse than useless and I resent paying for it and I’m still paying for the PE I won’t use.) We’re always made to wait for the junior editions and they always seem harder to find. Ant it would still cost me over twenty quid to get it to my door, even with the best discounts. Nah, I’m out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
