Incidentally, most Air Force F-4's in 1/48 are from the previous millenium, we could use a new Rhino with 21st century tooling. Most are from the previous millennium??? Academy's F-4C/D came out in 2013 and the ZM kits were released a couple of years ago. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Just announce a 32nd scale BF109F/G or an FW190 and await the avalanche of money...... or really left field, a classic Japanese Motorcycle in 6th scale with a pile of "detail up add ons" such as a Kawasaki Z1 900 Super Four or be still my beating heart if it happened that Cathedral organ of Motorcycles the Honda CBX............. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably true, but if the new releases includes a jet aircraft I would be delighted (and inevitably broke!) should Tamiya follow-up its remarkable 1/48 F-4B Phantom with an F-4J. I used to be strictly 1/32 but along comes a Meng F-4G Weasel on the heels of an Airfix Buccaneer S.2C and 1/48 is becoming so attractive: such stonkingly good kits. And the outsider — a quarter inch scale LTV A-7E SLUF — would swing it for me too. Oh yes, it definitely would. Tony .

Richard Humm Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I wouldn't be surprised to see a new large scale automotive kit - it's been five years since they did a new 1/6 scale motorbike, and nine years since they did a 1/12 scale car. A new 1/32 scale aircraft also seems due, as it's been seven years since the Mosquito came out. There hasn't been a new 1/350 scale ship since 2011, or a 1/700 scale one since 2017, so those are possibilities as well. The last 1/72 scale aircraft (apart from the reissue of the Italeri F-35B) was the Bf 109G-6 in 2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 With the new Ducati Superleggera having only recently reached the shops I doubt we're due another bike so soon after. Although I certainly wouldn't mind if that was one of the announcements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickpeck Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 Another vote for a P-38 early in 1/72. P-47M 1/72. P-47N 1/72 sounds good too. Rick 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tokyo Raider Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 I want the next 1/32 kit to be a P-38J! Love the 1/48 kits... upscale it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray_W Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 I am happy with anything. It seems recent Tamiya kits have been doing a great job of making me part with my money - so, if it is a subject I want (or will come to want because they have done it so darn well), I win, as I get what I want. And, if it is a subject I do not want, I also win, I'll save some money. Having said that a Tamiya rendition of a 1/48 A-20 would be nice. Asking too much I know. Well I did knock my expectation back a little. Otherwise, I would of said a B-26. Mr Tamiya, please do not release an F-8 seeing I have just picked up the Hasegawa F-8E re-release with a stack of aftermarket. Not long to wait now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think IF Tamiya were going to do another vintage USN jet. My $ would be on the A-4 as they can see Hasegawa’s are popular, early version's are virtually non-existent, and Hasegawa just-popped their Crusader. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fittedkitchens Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 From the 1/35 armour'n'stuff perspective... 1/35 T-34/76 - most likely a 1941/42 variant 1/35 M3 half-track variant, as suggested above (personnel or mortar carrier?) 1/35 KV-1B (up-armoured KV1... they done both the KV-1 & KV-2 in recent years) 1/35 M5 Stuart variant (they did release a new M3 a while back) Less likely: 1/35 SU-100 tank destroyer 1/35 M113 APC variant 1/35 Marder II tank destroyer Anyhoos, let's wait and see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tojo72 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 I can get on board with a 1/48 Skyhawk They could print money with a 1/48 F-18E/F 1/48 Mirage family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
