Just to confirm, I mean to buy any of the 32nd scale kits I named earlier and quite possibly any one out of my list 😉

I have bought and built just about all of the Roden 1/32nd kits that they have produced. Some in multiple issues.
I for one would like to see them re-release the 1/32nd WW1 kits in their catalog and add the following:
Jennie
Albatross CIII

I also would like to see them take the masters of their decals and have them done by Cartograph of Italy, if that's at all possible. I hate to say this, but their decals are not good.

This is my two cents worth on this subject

My wish is in 1/48:
1/48
- Caproni Ca 3 or any other Italian bomber (such as SAVOIA POMILIO "SIA" sp2 or SP3)
- Sikorsky S-XVI
- Nieuport Ni27and Ni28
- RAF RE8
- Sopwith Salamander
- Voisin V
- Farman MF 7 or 11 either "Short" or "long" "horn"
- AEG G IV
- Rumpler C.IV

 It is unfortunate that Ukraine is not part of the European Union. If they had their decals made by Cartograf in Italy, Roden would have to pay a 25% Ukrainian government imposed import tariff.

I have a few Roden kits: SPAD V.II, Albatros D.III and the Roden/Encore DR.1. For new kits I would like to see:

Hanriot HD.1
SPAD XIII
Phonix D.I, D.II
Sopwith Strutter

I'm sure with today's technology Roden could do a bang up job!!

is it possible to order directly from Roden?

lately i'm in the habit of ordering direct where possible, as they've already been paid for stuff one gets through other distribution channels.

after i sort out my CSM Nieuport needs i want to sort out my Roden needs. the one kit i'll need a few of is the Tripehound (7) the rest are mostly ones and twos, but i need quite a few more of their 1/32. (and yes, "need" is the correct word)

 You can view their website at roden.eu
 They list many wholesale distributors but do not seem to offer direct ordering. It is probably because it is more labor intensive for individual orders than the extra profit is worth.

They may have agreements with their retailers that prevent them from selling directly

They used to have their own online shop, but it seems to have disappeared.
My local hobby shop stocks Roden, so whenever possible I prefer to buy from him to support both him and Roden. His prices are very good as well!

Just a heads up to the Roden company: Produce, we will buy! Particularly if you take our wants into consideration! I'm a bit disturbed that the DH4 didn't appear on the lists on the previous page, it may just be a sampling error, but we really need one in 1/32 and 1/48... Just saying! Regards, Marc.

Hi,
It's been a very long time for a post from me, but I love wish lists.

In 1/32:
1) Siemens-Schuckert D.IV (paucity of color schemes but some theoretical stuff might cut it, like Jasta 14 or MFJ)
2) Pfalz D.VIII (thanks to the new replica in Sweden)
3) Bregeut Br14
4) Fokker D.V

Thanks for the tip-off Lyle; I did not know about the Swedish Pfalz DVIII,
Add that to my 1:32 list!
Also I urge everyone to watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J9P1mamdYA
