Don't ask me why, but I've got a BIG GUT feeling it's going to be a Hanriot HD-1 for Christmas... Or...I hope.... a Noop!

Well, if it were a Handriot it should be in Italian markings!

That will be fun!
Sooo... I just hope your gut is right!

Just a thought. In WnW's "news" it says the Camel is expected in 2016.
Maybe it will arrive earlier than expected. Stranger things have
happened.

Cheers,
Ernie

Yep, and in a Duelists version with a DR1

After seeing the Be2 from telford, I want a WNW kit of the same, along with the Camel 2.f1, and the Junkers D1, and a Sopwith Baby.

Ah, a convert to the (Be2) cause!

Starstrutter. Mark my words.
Failing that, the longer w12.

Heck Dave any AH type would be more than welcomed. I certainly wouldn't turn my nose up at a another version of the W12 either. Ah one of these days we shall see.

I went back to the very first page of this thread. It started in October of 2013. It's interesting, it's almost the exact same thread it is today.... everyone wants the Camel, the Dr I and a Be 2. Does anyone think we will see these this year? I know the Camel is coming, but maybe not for Xmus, seems like a long shot....I'm not sure if they will give the people what they want this year....Someone did mention a Felixstowe with a winky face, I thought that was funny. I still think the Felix was, and maybe will be the biggest surprise ever. No one, and I mean no one seriously ever thought they would see something like that in this scale. From now on we wont be AS surprised by something large. If the surprise is a Stakken, or Friedrichshafen we will be excited but not AS surprised as we were last year.......I do have to say I wish they would do something, anything the anticipation is killing me!

I am totally unaffected by and in fact avoid the irrational frenzy over the specifics of the next release. The fact that I check the Wingnut Home Page 3-4 times daily is sheer coincidence!

Cheers,
Lance

I'm glad to hear one of us has things under control, Lance!

Zavod, I for one would love a Freidrichshafen. It's not a small plane, but it's not crazy big like the Felix. I actually have room to build and display one. No more huge behemoths this year please, Wingnuts!

My conspiracy theory is, that they will hold off announcing anything new till more people buy the older kits for their Christmas fix. Then they will announce the new ones and most people will have to be content in getting them after Christmas

mike in calif · « **Reply #1603 on:** November 22, 2015, 07:12:09 AM »

But I already have an Se5a, and the paint is so.....
And I have a Biff, and a complete J1, and I traded my LVG for 3 Albatrii...

How about a nice Dornier flying boat?

zavod44 · « **Reply #1604 on:** November 22, 2015, 08:03:01 AM »

Well from a business standpoint, I would imagine you want to release something before the holidays. I would assume they know the nature of modelers, when something new is announced I want it NOW! I don't want to wait....I might build it five years from now, but I want it immediately. Combine that with getting it for a gift, its a grand slam. I think if they are going to wait to sell off old stock they will be missing the boat. I have been looking at those same old kits for a long time. I'm ready to look at something new and I want it NOW!
