HM released some great models during the last years, from Skyraiders, Super Sabres, Thunderchiefs to Phantoms with gun pods. I wonder why this range isn't continued?
Sure, a Bronco won't sell like the n-variant of a Phantom mold, but what about a Skyraider variant? A multi-seat Skyraider perhaps? Or a A-37 Dragonfly?

Fans of bigger stuff like C-123s or AC-119s (yessss) will never attract enough interest of course (CW's SR-71 being a nice exception regarding the necessary real-estate required to display) and don't get me started on a B-52...

What is your opinion? Would you like to see HM or other manufactures to release some down-to-earth aircraft in the South East Asia (SEA) scheme or continue the trend to modern, mostly grey (and dull

) high-end aircraft like F-35s, SU-34s (notable exception here the upcoming Vigilante)?

Cheers
Chris
