I got this from the cybermodeler webiste, listing new 2005 release for Trumpeter. Interesting that they have more 1/32 releases than 1/48 or 1/72 individually. In 1/48, they have a FW200, wonder how big wil that kit be!

Thanks for the information.
Wop! Did you say a 1/48 FW-200 Condor??!!! I think you need a garage to hold it.[:D]

I want a 1/48 scale Wimpy in the worst way. The Hun, though I would have preferred my own quarter scale, is a godsend. However, I feel that the Trumpeter fad is going to play itself out in the next couple of years, and we won’t see so many different new subjects being released all the time like we are now, so get 'em while they’re hot.

A very impressive line-up. Please excuse my drooling [:)].

I want the Tu-160, the Kondor, the Be-6 and the Wyvern- both scales.
Now, is this too much to ask for? [:P]

7

A-7? Bout time. If we buy them, they will make more.[8]

8

I really want one but I can’t decide which. Any idea on what to expect as far as a price point goes for these new kits?

9

Greatmodels are already taking preorders for some of them,

the 1/32 F4 is $35, Harrier $75, A7E, is $68.

10

Those really aren’t bad prices. I’d like to see that Wellington. Not something you see everyday.

11

A 1/48 Condor is about the same size as a 1/48 B-17, see below…

That is the Koster Fw-200 and I know that Trumpeter is using that kit as a reference for theirs along with the MPM kit. I would be surprised if they could approach the level of detail offered by Koster.

12

Personally, I’ll take the Wellington and the FW-200 Condor ( I’ll spell it My way). Those are two that I have been waiting on.

13

ooo- the Condor and Schwalbe sound real nice!

14

With all of those 1/32 aircraft, I will have to rent a hanger down at the airport! I love the big scale stuff! It is about time that the model companies took a hint and started making more of them. Semper Fi!!!

15

Kind of odd, The Wyvern is a fairly obscure aircraft & was recently released in 1/48 by Classic Airframes & in 1/72 by Special Hobby. Wonder what the Trumpeter kits will have to offer.

Regards, Rick

Might need a new house for all of the 1/32’s I am gathering. I thought the 1/48 b-17 was big until i got the flanker. lol

17

Holy Cow! What a list! Trumpeter is pushing the envelope with some very impressive 1:32 and 1:48 scale examples. I, for one, am ecstatic that we are finally getting a new mold RA-5C (in both :48 and :72)! Have fun! Frank

18

Wow 1/72 blackjack , thats cool

19

Still no Beech King Air though. Ah well I guess I can settle for the 1/72 Vigi and the 1/72 Thud.

20

That is one impressive list of models! I vote with roadkill for the 1/72 Vigi and Thud, especially the Thud. Love that big beast. The Hasegawa 1/72 D model leaves a lot to be desired, so I hope Trumpeter’s is much better.
