Time for the annual Wingnuts speculation

[kornbeef]

Windsock are releasing a datafile on the Aviatik (Berg) D.1..... I wonder???

[uncletony]

Well Windsock published Halberstadt C.II at War! in April 2013, and so far, no Halby 

But who knows.

I would definitely love to see an Berg!

I still don't see the reason to tell us at the very last minute. Given the prices of the kits, I would think it would be better to announce what is being release next, so we can actually beg, borrow or steal what we need to buy them. Good example is Fly models who announce their Hawker Hurricane kits, of which I plan to get at least one. Probably the desert version and the Sea Hurricane.

I seem to recall seeing a reference earlier this year to a trade show WNW will be attending sometime in April.  I remember that they released the Roland C.II at a trade show a couple of years ago, so I checked and the Roland was released on April 6,, 2014.  It just so happens that the Guangzhou International Toy and Hobby Fair is being held from April 8-10 this year.  Don't know if that's the show WNW is attending or not, but maybe we'll see something fairly soon.

It isn't a trade show its the Wellington Model Expo, run by our local IPMS club. It's on 23-24 April. I will be there, camera in hand, and will send through pics of anything new (probably via Facebook). I am expecting surprises (but I have no inside knowledge at all)

Cheers

I'm sure there will be a new model on the Wingnut stand at the Wellington Model Expo 23-24 April - never failed yet. Roland for me last time (2 years ago).Only three weeks to go chaps.

2014 Model Expo were the two Roland kits. Previous Model Expo was the Pfalz DXII

    I'm looking forward to Jamo's report on the Expo, surely the Camel debut, overdue, will be the feature?!

I'm not so sure.  I think we may see the Camel towards the end of the third quarter of this year.  Perhaps something else is coming...

[15badcats]

Who else thinks the free shipping will end with the new releases ?

[Des]

The Camel is a possibility but not probable, more than likely later in the year, as far as 'free' post I think it will be dropped mid year (just my 2 cents worth)

Des.

As I recall WnW has said that a timely warning would be given before inclusive shipping was actually ended. By which I take it to mean a few weeks warning at least.

...And at which time we may see a few kits added to the "sold out" list.

   I'd prefer the Camel but if you're right, Eric, that too would be very exciting........... a BE2 and / or something really "off the wall", like a D.VIII, DR.1, or Dolphin??!!

I'm with Eric on this one - something not on the radar is more likely and would fit with past issues at the show. I'm hoping for an Aviatik Berg D.1 or something like that. Couldn't give two hoots for a Camel myself.

Would love to see them release a Habsburg bird of some kind.  I would not be surprised to see something that is a derivative of a kit that is already out there, such as another Albatros B II (mid or late), another DFW (early), or perhaps another W.12 (early). 

The problem with all of these guesses is that they are two seaters.  In the past, WNW's spring release has been a scout plane., with the exception of the Walfisch kits.  Who knows.
