KITCAT Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 It looks as the the late series Spad is due to be released at the end of the year and work is well on with the 1&1/2 strutter and Avro 504. Lets hope the decals work. Anyway the Spad is my least favourite byplane but the 504's should be interesting. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seawinder Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Scale(s)? I'm assuming the SPAD will be 1/32, but the 1/48 1.5 Strutter has been around for a number of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Thompson Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 The Spad, Avro and Strutter were all announced in response to a poll Roden requested on the WW1aircraftmodels forum a year or two ago, since these and the scale of 1/32nd are what was requested by the forum members.

berman Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 If you would like to see the Avro 504 also produced in 1/48th scale, send an email to Roden at [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primarily, with the current situation, I'm amazed they're managing to function at all and don't want to pester them with a 'why don't you do this instead of that?' type of query. After all, they've already conducted market research that they consider sufficient. I'll buy one, anyway, but don't have space or funds for more than one. But secondly, although a new 1/48th 504 would be nice, it isn't high up my list of unkitted WW1 types, because I'm satisfied with the Blue Max kits I have, despite it's flaws. If I didn't have them, it would be different. But I do. If they succeed with their new 1/32nd kits, then I'll certainly be bending their ears with appropriate suggestions.

Harold55 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 I have the old Blue Max 504 just sitting on the shelf looking at me. Would love to get a new tool replacement that I might actually build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
