2020 – Oh Boy! Oh Boy!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
From Hannant's "Future Releases" - ICM release list for 2020:
1/32 CR 42 - several different releases
1/32 Gladiator II and Sea Gladiator (also a "Foreign Services" release)
1/32 PT-13/17 Stearman also N2S-2/5
1/48 He-111Z Zwilling!
1/48 Several B-26s, including a B-26C Korean War (no Vietnam on the list I saw)
1/48 Cessna O-2 Skymaster
Yikes!
I am NEVER going to get caught up!
Tom, the Zwilling caught my eye also. No injection plastic kit of this giant bird has ever been released in the 1/48 scale, only resin conversion that required 2 donor Heinkel kits. Taking ICM one elevens this kit kit should become unique. Also unique is the J version of their Dornier 217 family, the first available in 1/48 from a mainstream maker
If we thought 2019 was a splendid year for us modellers, next year doesn’t seem disappointing so far
Hi Tom,
Just to increase the expectation I read recently on the internet so it may be true or not that there will be 1/32 kits of:
Vampire 3 & 5
Wyvern
Aichi Val
Savio Marchetti SM79
A-20 Havoc
Beaufighter Mk X
SB2C Helldiver
All these from Infinity Models which will be a new section of HpM that will specialise in injected models. Could be a crock or it could be true. I hope it is the latter.
There's another manufacturer that has to remain unnamed that is considering an A-20 family in 1/32.
2020- here we come!
This is just wonderful, thanks for these sunny, motivating prospects!
