I think the rumours are:

 

1/35 Jagdpanzer

1/35 German Infantry figures (late war)

1/20 Porsche 935 Martini

1/24 Gordon Murray T.50

 

All listed on Scalemates but no official word from Tamiya.

 


Didn’t they also hint at an aircraft? I know it’s not reported at Scalemates.

Well, like I wrote before the 1/48 Super Hornet is a must for Tamiya, don't know is it goings to be finished yet for this or Shizuoka show. The 1/48 Phantom "J" will be available as well... 1/32 P-40...

...

1/32 Tornado GR.4 not for some 10+ years. Oh, You have Italeri.

They‘ve lately given us P-38 Lightning. They followed it with Lightning II. We also have Phantom II. Isn’t it time for Phantom 1?

No, you see first Tamiya made the Thunderbolt, then the Lightning so now they will launch the QE2.

I have no idea, but feel like there's not going to be aircraft and therefore mayhem & toy-out-of-pram-chucking will inevitably ensue.

 

I have popcorn ready just in case :D

Dunno about you lot, but I’m content to wait until the announcement, as no amount of wishlisting will affect the outcome now. The toolings will be all but finalised :shrug:

And be better than anything that has gone before. We will all buy one even if we don't  need it, just to feel the quality. 

We're  sad like that  🤗

QE2? This is the Tamiya thread, not Airfix. :dull:
But you’re right they did release both Thunderbolts. Which only reinforces my theory: both Thunderbolts, both Lightnings, so we are due for FH-1 Phantom or perhaps Corsair II?

I am having fun with the guesswork ;)

 

You see, first you have Thunderbolt and Lightning, and then  it becomes very very frighting, so now you have Queen, and that leads you to QE2 ;)

This IS fun! Isn’t it? Sometimes more fun than the reveals themselves.

 

Now back to the Queen. It’s Emperor in Japan, not Queen, so you might be thinking Giulio Cesare. :rofl:

A storm brewing ...... so Desert Storm.  New A10, or 1/48 Bradley.

Or 1/32 Beaufighter.   Sorry just been looking in the left field.🤭

You’d be right to look in the left field.

But thinking of Desert Storm and Thunderbolts and Lightnings, I’m seeing TORNADOES! :surprised:
