MPM (or one of the Czech companies) have had a B-18 on their "coming soon" list for several years now..I'd love one, but if their DC-2 is any indication, it'll cost 50 Yankee Dollars or more. Meanwhile I'm looking forward to getting my hands on the new Hasegawa 1/72 B-24! :supz:

The 1/32 T-6 is pretty exciting. I'm also excited about the Tamiya Storch which my local shop is supposed to get in this week.

Looks like I might finally have to break down and buy my first Trumpeter kit if that 1/48 Sea Fury is any good. The 1/48 AC-47 Gunship sounds cool too.

there are also some very good re-releases coming from Monogram. The Visiable B-17 is out now, and next month the Viper, Cylon Raider and Cylon Basestar from the Battlestar Galactica.
I also have been waiting for the TBD and T-6, both are long overdue

I picked up a visible B-17 today, it is only $2 more than the regular B-17 kit. 2 things that I noticed, the box had the Monogram label, and it was made in China. I guess Monogram lives as a US Company as name only, with molding now being done in china.

Thats interesting, looks like Cessna has jumped on the "Made in China" theme :shock: http://www.cessnaskycatcher.com/
