I would like to see a AH1G Cobra in 1/35, and a Bell 47J inany scale.

3

Hmmm… Helo wish list, huh?

1/35th scale of course

Updated AH-1G, whether in 32 or 35 scale, I don’t care, but we NEED A MODERN KIT!!

  1. AH-1J (This is a MUST!!!)
  2. AH-1F
  3. Can you imagine an HH-53 in 35th scale??!!!
  4. H-34 USMC
  5. CH-46
  6. Hiller OH-23 Raven
  7. UH-21 Flying Banana!
  8. SH/UH-2 Seasprite
  9. HH-3 Jolly Green
  10. A good, detailed OH-58A in Vietnam configuration

That’s my $.02

Rolling in Hot!

I must say, I can’t add to CH’s list! That 1:35 scale AH-1G would be #1 on my list… and the -J would be a great addition, as well. But a CH-53 or HH-3E??? Too much to ask for! Or izzit?

FITTER out [:D]

5

OH please! Make the Panda 1/35 CH47-C a REAL DEAL!!!..PLEASE!!!

6

Would love to see the AH-1G with 20mm on left stub wing in 1/35 as well as a quality UH-1D/H. After buying Panda’s, no way I buy anything from them again! I’ll try and update the old Aroura CH-47 in 1/48. Need a HH-3 Golly Green in 1/48 as well as the old H-21 and an AH-47.

7

Are there any kits of the Sea Knight? I think it is the CH-46 im looking for 1/48?? NOT 1/72!

8

I don’t do a lot of Helicopters, but there are a few I’d like to see done:

1/48
Atlas Rooivalk
Fairey Rotodyne
Mil 6 “Halo” (I think its the Mil 6, anyway its a big transport helo)

1/32
Bell 222
Augusta 109
Hughes 500 NOTAR

9

OH-58D Kiowa Warrior Is the one I’d like to see in 1/48.

10

I’m thrilled that Panda came out with the 1:35th scale Huey “D”. I’ld like a litter bearing/Medevac version of the “slick” make a stupendous diorama

11

On my list of wanted things, decent and large kits of…

Mil Mi-10
Mil Mi-12
Mil Mi-26

12

DEFINITELY 1/48 of the following:
Mi 8
Mi 17
HH-60J Jayhawk (USCG)
HH-3 Pelican (USCG)/Jolly Green Giant (USAF)
CH-47

13

Two things first:

  1. There is a 1/35 HH-53 being produced in the near future I beleive (US$179 I think)

  2. The Mi-26 is the Halo not the Mi-6 - for a walkaround have a look at Helicopter walkaround site. (big in whatever scale you choose)

My wishes are:

  1. 1/35 Kiowa A/B
  2. 1/35 Seaking
  3. 1/35 Wessex

Well thats my 2 devalued Australian cents worth

14

1/48th HH-60H SEAHAWK
SH-60F OCEANHAWK
HaS RN LYNX
CH-46 SEAKNIGHT
AC-47 CHINOOK
DECALS: We’ve had some nice Cobra and Apache decals comeout recently. But would like to see some for the SeaKing, Seahawks, Blackhawks
etc…I love the fix wing stuff (hands down) but seeing several versions of the same 109,s Hellcats, etc…lets see something new in the helo community!!!

Feet Wet!! Fly Navy

15

Sea Sprite would be cool.

16

photo etch for 1/35 scale US helos (UH-1, AH-64, UH/MH-60, OH-58,…)

1/35
Mi-24 Hind-D or later (plus decal for “golden eagle” marking of Hind in Afghanistan - tail number 447 or 997 - the decal might be near impossible though)
CH/MH-47

17

hehehehe, I’m happy. I just found out that Academy makes 2 1/48 Kiowa Warriors! I found my Helo to work on!!

18

A resin / photo etch detail set and decal options for the Panda 1/35 scale Chinook! [:D]

19

Would a 1/35 or 1/48 CH-53e be out of the question?? How about walking on the wild side and produce a CH-54!

20

1/35 Scale:

AH-1G
AH-1S Mod
AH-1F
AH-6
MH-6
TH-55

Any good update kits, especially for the AH-64 A and D. Engine, transmission, crew cockpits.

120mm Figure:

AH-64 Aviator in full flight gear.
160th SOAR Aviator with full flight/mission gear.

Since Verlinden just put out the WWII gunner, how about a 120mm of a UH-1H door gunner from Vietnam?

Just wishing…
