Wouldn‘t a HP O/100 be a bit smaller than an O/400 and this a slight bit more realistic?
Although, I‘d be much more delighted if WnW would surprise me with some niceversions of the DH.4 and the Breguet XIV!

Before I started my GV build I asked Richard if it was in the works, he said he couldn't say 100% but if I wanted to start my conversion I would prob be safe.....so I'm taking that as a no go on the GV......

A Gotha G.II or G.III would also be welcomed if they wanted to.    ;D

Yes!
More Gothas!
A denial from WNW is almost a confirmation.

 Sounds great to me too. But I'm afraid it's cost would too high. Besides I don't believe my Wife would allow me to build a hanger for it.

So once again we were all pretty much wrong about the latest releases , although I think Manni mentioned the figures appearing as a nice possibility  8)

As always WNW has left us another tidbit to speculate on.. a possible "New Kit" release announcement in May in Japan  ;D

LOL
I just love the way WNW has us all guessing , ads to the enjoyment and I bet they have good laughs over model forum guessing games!

Ok the Halberstadt is announced  and there is additional info on the CSM N.17 so lets go to the next round of WNW guesses with 17 in un-announced #s yet to be named here is my partial list  (in somewhat order of preference):  Halberstadt D-II  (MvR 's), Roland D-II, Fe 2, Hanriot HD-1, Fok. D-III/DIV, Vickers F. B. 5  .

1.Dr 1
2-17 Anything else

I have a Roden Dr1. Any fan of the machine that likes 1/32 will probably have one. I have bought all the possible up grades out there. I will not buy another Roden Dr1. That money is spent. I cant unspend it. I suspect the Roden Dr1 sales have already dropped off considerably. A Roden Dr1 will still be half the price of a WNW Dr1 for those that "just want a Red Baron airplane." WNW - you will not upset any Dr1 apple carts by releasing one.

(okay maybe #2 is a DVIII - same reasoning)

Would love to see a Pfalz E series, they will not get the bang they got out of the Fokker Es, but I'd love to display them side by side.

Having been spot on the money, wishing for a Dolphin, then a Junkers DI, then a Halberstadt, I don't really feel I have much right to dare ask for anything else, but...
I'd hope for a Strutter, followed by an Albatros C-type. If we have to have a BE2, I'd rather a later BE2e with the unequal span wings.

macsporran, to save you the risk of feeling guilty i'll also hope for a 1 1/2 Strutter.

lots of stuff i'd like but in addition to that a DH.4 and a Bristol Scout are high on my wish list. i've resigned myself to the likelihood that WNW are probably not planning to do an Ilya Mouromets or Staaken...
