He had planned a Pfalz D.III as his next release in the Dark Scale.

That was one of the problems that haunted John.

His masters makers were selling masters that were contractually his elsewhere. It's possible that they did that because he was so bad about paying his bills.

After John died his wife told me that she found hundreds of kits, decals and after market stuff hidden from her all over the house. He didn't fill paid orders yet he kept stuff that people had paid for in his own stash. He figured that they would increase in value over the years.

John's dishonesty was made even more disgusting because he spouted his "Born Again Christian" endlessly. Of course he spent a fortune on long diatribe phone calls for other subjects as well.

OK, a couple of more guesses and 'll show my cards.

Closer. That is the next rarest as it was intended only for "club members".

Actually by bundling it with my HiPM Vindicator I managed to get rid of both, only way I could in fact.

The Dark Scale? I thought 1/48 was God's scale? Who's got the list? 8^)

Gee, could it have been the Dornier D.I, first in the "Club" series?

Okay, how about the Siemens Schuckert D.I, erstwhile Nieuport 11?

I know it's gotta be one I don't have!

Would it be the 1/72 Midget Mustang? or the Glide Bomb that the B-17 carried (can't remember the name)?

I have a Midget Mustang that I paid $2 for, back in the day.

Odd. Whe I talked to him long distance we talked about Girardville, Pa. and Pa Dutch cooking. He couldn't get anything like that around Dallas. I don't recall religion coming up.

I saw one of those once about ten years ago, but passed on it because I had just finished the ancient Lindberg 1:48 version (adding a cockpit into the mix). It looked to me to be just pantographed down to 1:72 scale from that older kit, but I'm probably wrong.

Glad you got one Tom. I pre-paid for 2 and never saw them, oh well. Ended gettting a couple of the MPM A-36's, very nice kits, though still unbuilt.

The master for that one was included in an auction of some of the Meiekraft stuff (decals, link trainers, boxes etc) year or so back on ebay. Group from the WW1 modelling list bought it - can't recall who had the Mustang.
