READING IT NOW in the new catalogue.. also a frogfoot! not bothered about that one, but hopefully leading to a SU22 in 32nd!!
now having walked around many a Mig 23 and 27, i cant wait to do a 32nd in DDR!!!!
Oh...HAY-ELL YEAH!!! How long have I been asking Trumpeter for a 1/32 Mig-23?...and now they're doin' it? Thanks, Trumpeter!!! You're still
100% on my requests...yeah - bring on a 1/32 Su-22!...and...where's my 1/32 P-61?
its in the pocketbond cat for 2009 release...could be delayed, but its one for me!! i still notice they have a pic of a prowler, instead of the A6E...but didnt notice a release of a Ea6A as im sure i did in it last year...
oh did i mention the Trump Su-24 in 48th? not quite for me (i like it, but i love to do DDR etc that i have seen and taken many fotos of)
i have a good disk of walk arounds of Migs, SU's etc even the 2 seater Su22 and early one without the top intake.
There fotos from 2 genuine DDR bases i have been to a few times, Cottbus and Rothenburg, and theres a third i want to visit in the summer...
A 32nd Su22 would be amazing, esp as i want to do a really well weathered fully armed one.
Close up, these aircraft are put together like a kid has done it, badly fitting, bolts n bits not flush, lots of illfitting panels, but the worst i had seen was a Hind24 and MI 8 that just looked like pop pop rivited together
now need some good DDR for me!
Mind you, been to Poland a few times, and lots of fotos of aircraft from there....and some wierd armour and support vehicles!
wasn't cottbus where the fw 200's flew from?
Not sure, but has a great museum, interesting though, as a german girl a couple of years ago bought me the revell kit...
i was there 2 years ago, and a sudden rain shower, so i sat under the weapon store wing on a Hind 24
they had a few Mi8's a SAR etc. but one i have fotos of the inside, was fitted with desks, chairs, telephones and huge maps...
sort of a caravan.
will see if i have the foto on one of the 3 pcs now infront of me, and post it to the binary site.
I'll be dead broke by the time I scoop up the rest of the boxes out there I want from Trumpeter...but they just keep bringing them, so I gotta keep buying. I think I have at least one example of all the 1/32 Russian ones so far...yup, got 'em all. That Mig-23 is one I've really been wanting...likely to pass on the Frogfoot...maybe...well...you never know...crap...
I'd go for a 1/32 Prowler if they did one...not a straight A6E, though. Wouldn't mind a good 1/32 Gripen (single and 2-seater) out of someone either - even though that's a little airplane; I have the Revell example. I just think it's neat. And a nice Kfir C2 or C7 would be welcome as well...and...
okee
Well, the 1/32nd MiG-23 would be WAY out of my price range, but I'd love to see a new MiG-23/-27 series in 1/48th to replace the old ESCI kits.
well its out of my price range too, but might sell a kindey..
Trump have a lot of new 48th stuff out, and if there doing a 32nd Mig23, i would expect a 48th and maybe a 72nd too!
Looks like I need to drop a couple hundred on Zacto's correction resin for the Revell Mig-29A and Trumpeter Su-27 - I already have the kits...I made need two of the Fulcrum sets, as I have both single and two-seaters on hand...
And the son thinks I'm weird for using two different ones - three if you count the one doing DOS over in the front room.
