'Slide, out of your enormous list, I'd have to say the F-105 is what I'm hoping for the most. I also want a T-37 or AT-37. But I wonder if both of these models are too much of a niche to sell in large quantities....meaning that they probably aren't high on the list by any manufacturer. What do you think?

I think you're right!...I also want the F-105 very much. I think we'll see it next year from HM. By the way, I need to edit my list but "edit" is not an option for me on that post. I listed the A-26 as an "Intruder" and it should be an "Invader".

ANA Mohican · 07-09-2008, 08:13 PM

I want

SR-71 & U-2

lanslide · 07-10-2008, 07:49 AM

Me too, ANA Mohicaan! Also an X-1 and X-15

lanslide · 07-15-2008, 07:41 AM

...well it looks like I can scratch the Helldiver off my wish list! I'll replace it with an SB2U Vindicator.

CitationDrvr · 08-07-2008, 01:32 AM

I agree...I'd love to see the X-planes. I would love to see Y-series variants of some of the above lists as well. (for instance, YA-7D, YC-15A, YF-16A)

dboyd001 · 08-29-2008, 11:45 AM

B-57 or B-58

Dave

Hello,

Right now I am in the progress of starting up a new brand (together with a chinese manufacturer) for diecast aircraft in the scales 1/72 - 1/48 and 1/32.
This is not only a nice wish or a thought, but already far materialized and dead serious !!!!!

Right now I am looking in this forum for the types of aircraft which would be interesting to produce, BUT must be far from the common subjects the current manufacturers are producing to ensure a good an new position in the market.
The first models have to appear on the market end 2009.

But I need everybodies help !!!!!
Please everybody, who is interesting to do so, can submit me a list of all the aircraft types, which you all would like to have produced in combination with the wanted scale.
Please sent the list to: wingscale@yahoo.com

Everybody will receive a reply from me and I will ensure that when the model will be produced, the persons who gave me the most support / information will receive the model from me or will be asked to review the first prototypes of the model.

Thanking you all in advance and please take the change to help creating a new interesting brand of diecast aircraft !!!
